    hence application and verification are probably where your real interest lies.

    Look superstition works for some people, athletes for example. Does that mean the superstition is truth ?

    Now lets see the knowledge.

    If this day came, how would you know that it wasn't some form of hallucination, or mental illness taking form? Maybe when you think you are able to perceive god, all you are really perceiving is the early onset of Alzheimer's. Malfunctioning human brains are common, and the ability to understand the meaning and purpose of existence is usually a good sign of one.

    Probably not since superstition can be tested (to see if it works) in a way that it doesn't hold for athletes

    if you want to see it outside of issues of application while deriding hearsay, there's nothing to see

    I agree. I was talking about an unambiguous experience though. And if the doctor says that there is nothing wrong with me, the experience is worth some thought. But still.. I agree.

    provide an example of superstition (even how you could term something as "superstition" without doing so is interesting)

    so you want to discuss the theoretical nature of god?

    Whatever. Anything can be a superstition.

    I don't know what you mean here.

    No, I want your personal knowledge of God.

    particularly if you can bring it into line with 'workable' knowledge

    If I say that atoms are superstition, how would you bring that claim into check?


    then you are going about it all the wrong way
