The nature of sudden religious enlightenment is that IT MUST BE BELIEVED .. . .
. . . by the direct recipient.
But when the recipient relates his experience to others, it has no evidentiary value whatever.
I heard this individual interviewed on NPR recently, and it seems clear that HE is convinced. But his credulousness is not binding on me. Or you. Or Max, or Joe, or anyone else. If one of his hearers is convinced by what he says, that's their choice. Their credulity.
