On the internet. Which has about as much weight as the average gnat testicle.
Second, you see that logo at the top of every page? The one with "ATHEIST FORUMS" emblazoned across it in orange and blue tinted steel font? Why on earth would you think your shaky recounting of what is either outright lies or an easily explainable hallucination couple with Hindsight Bias would in any way move us, let alone convince us?
I can see that your signature has Carl Sagan quote. Did you know Carl Sagan is my hero. I have read his book called "The Demon-Haunted World", you should read it. In his book, he talks about many cases concerning hallucinations, dreams and visions. I understand each analysis he made about every spiritual encounter and alien abductions cases in the book, he also concluded that all we have are stories created by human based only on mere imagination. And not built on true evidence.
Dude, when i speak, i speak the truth. The evidence i provided seemed rational to me, because it does not meet the criteria which its found in the book. IF you examine all other cases, you will notice that the scenario i provided is way different from the others.
In view of this, and his stance on such matters, what do you think Sagan would make of this? Of you? Of the process of thought that you have used to evaluate it?
You must weigh the evidence properly in your mind, and not give into the emotion of the experience you think you had.
Weigh it against all the other sighting of demons and UFO's and fuck knows what else and ask yourself...'why is this in any way different to those countless other mistakes, frauds, and hallucinations?'
