What is an "Ex Believer", anyway?

On a related note, and something that fascinates me, who is it that Muslims, and Deist Buddhists and Hindus meet/experience? If you ask them, they would say Allah or maybe Krishna. However, if these are "false" gods, then they must either be meeting your god under a different name, or they are not experiencing anything real at all...I have asked my Christian friends who claim the ultimate proof of God is the emotional connection they feel this same question. Some are sure that other religious believers do NOT feel anything like they do. Other speculate that they are communing with lesser gods.As an atheist, I say that they are all experiencing the same thing, and that it comes from within not from outside.Citizzzen

The message is ended, go in peace.

"...Did you have an emotional and lifestyle transformation... Multiple times in prayer where you strongly felt that there was a presence apart from the norm... Was it a good feeling..."Again, this begs the question, what do believers in other deities feel? And if they DO feel a connection like you describe, what does that suggest? Also, if they DO feel something like you suggest, but it is false, how would they know, or how would you?Citizzzen
