I had some emotional highs as a youth in church that I interpreted as God at the time. Now I look back and chuckle at my naivety. The most intense experiences that I've had, though more existential and terrifying or sublime than anything particularly religious, was on LSD, shrooms, and ecstasy (not all at once, of course).
