Many people have related a very wide variety of religious experiences over the centuries. Many if not most of these testimonies have been given with complete and utter sincerity and frankness. One could conclude that these people are truthfully describing their experience as they experienced it, the best way they can. But a personal experience, however intense and however widely celebrated, doesn't verify the reality of what was subjectively experienced.
