Description-related
This focuses on why the reliability of the description of the claimed religious experience may be doubted
- Logical inconsistencies or incoherence within the subjects’ descriptions
- Inconsistencies between the subjects’ actual behaviour and the behaviour one would expect if they had had the claimed experience
- Unreliability of the person (e.g. known liar)
- Unreliability of memory
- The person misunderstands the experience (e.g. how can they recognise infinite wisdom)
