Can religious experience make someone believe in G

YES:

  • makes one person believe
  • related directly to God by experiencing his presence
  • it's a powerful force so person will know it's him
  • God worked within people

a Christian would say that:

  • it's the best proof (personally) if it's been experienced
  • you're free to believe what you like but this experience could provide evidence to confirm the beliefs

Can religious experience make someone believe in G

NO:

  • only personal proof
  • outsider relies on secondary source or hearsay
  • not experienced so not a believer
  • teller of story may lie or exaggerate
  • there's scientific evidence for old-fashioned experiences (things that once made people believe in the first time)
