Whoever said that they did? I just followed your logic.
Actually your not.
Your committing a formal fallacy:
Affirming the consequent – the antecedent in an indicative conditional is claimed to be true because the consequent is true; if A, then B; B, therefore A.[8]

Do you think that people in other religions don't believe that they 'feel' their deities presence also? They ask and believe that their god/goddess answers too. A Hindu feels just as strongly as you do that their deities also show up when asked.

"Quote:In reality, the Mahadevas are individual soul beings, and down through the ages ordinary men and women, great saints and sages, prophets and mystics in all cultures have inwardly seen, heard, and been profoundly influenced by these superconscious inner plane beings. Lord Ganesha is such a being. He can think just as we can think. He can see and understand and make decisions - so vast in their implications and complexity that we could never comprehend them with our human faculties and understanding."

Quote:As he approaches the sanctum sanctorum, the Hindu is fully aware that an intelligent being, greater and more evolved than himself, is there. This God is intently aware of him, safeguarding him, fully knowing his inmost thought, fully capable of coping with any situation the devotee may mentally lay at his Holy Feet. It is important that we approach the Deity in this way - conscious and confident that our needs are known in the inner spiritual worlds.
A Hindu has the same strong beliefs that you do for their god. Do you honestly think that Christian faith and how they feel about god isn't also shared by followers of other faiths in relationship for their supreme beings?
Who said anything about feelings?
I said proof of God lies with in God. If you seek God as He is instructs at some point in your existence you will indeed see Him.
I do not deny that Other religions have something fueling them. Religious People are not as stupid as most atheist say they are. If their was nothing behind a religious belief then that belief would die. That said, not all beliefs are correct. Many were created to mislead and to pander to what people want.
