I'm skeptical of extrapolating things from lived experience. I used to be a devout christian, saw miracles, experienced the presence of God. My lived experience was extremely convincing! But I'm no longer christian, and I realize the human brain can generate incredible things.

healing and 'impossible' readings done live in church is one. there's also some highly coincidental things that would require a lot of tweets to explain the background that i was convinced came form god

and if you turn it around - what is worth extrapolating? books? the "lived experience" of others?

How did you manage to deconvert, having experienced such seeming miracles? Doesn't seem easy to explain away that kind of stuff without strong motivation to do so.
