I believe somewhere between 25%-75% of people have had a religious experience, not often mentioned in public, because of the problems of being called "mad" if they speak of such things, and being put down by the media. It's safe though to go to a good religious group to talk about such things, some Churches have people in their congregation that have had many miracles given. So talk to Church elders and not the media, as mostly the media is athiest, that is to say, not at all learned in any religion, with no faith in a Higher Power.

Definitely occult. Many people who do it consider it a religious experience, but it is not Christian. Concerning the experience itself, I believe it is no more of a religious or an occult occurrence than walking down the street physically. It is neither.

Are religious experiences veridical?

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.


Is it okay to be gay if you are not religious?

Of course it is. That some of the mainstream religions are against homosexuality and they decry them does not concern you. Many people who claim to be religious are, in fact, homosexual. Something many churches would deny by saying they are not true members of that religion. That is the province of that church and is of no concern to anyone outside of that church.

Why do non-religious people not believe in life after death?

.Why do non-skiers not enjoy sliding down snowy mountainsides with long sticks attached to their feet? They don't like skiing. Non-religious people don't believe in life after death because such belief is almost always connected with some form of religious belief and practice. In other words, for many it's part of what comes with being non-religious. Many such people were not born into religious families, and many have decided after considerable thought and experience that religions and the beliefs associated with them are not supportable or useful. In general, non-religious people have not been given, or have not developed, the faith needed to sustain such beliefs. There may be some non-religious people who have some kind of belief in an experience after death. Remember that religion is a practice based on faith, and some who do not practice any religion at all may still have some general beliefs about an afterlife.

How many types of experience have people identified?

Experience refers to knowledge and/ or ability you've acquired through practice, rather than through theory. It is, however, ambiguous whether it refers to the mental or the physical realm. Thus, experience can be physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and even religious.
