I could just as easily claim that this is Odin calling her to Valhalla and I would be just as justified in believing it as the xian god, again, that is to say: not at all.
If you begin with the assumption that there is no God, then you'll come up with the conclusion that this experience didn't involve God.
No. It's more like 'what other explanation could there be that doesn't automatically involve bullshit as its premise?'

Petty and cruel for telling her in a dream that her father had died?
Again, I have to continually remind myself that I am conversing with adults here. The absurdity and silliness is just so childish.
