To deny your own experience is to contradict yourself.
Interpretation of experience gathered through imperfect human perception and interpretation is subjective and vulnerable to a host of internal biases, and to acknowledge that is only to acknowledge reality, not to contradict oneself. It is only as a shared interpretation develops that objectivity emerges.
Objectivity also requires reliably establishing that all are interpreting the same phenomenon, something not possible with internal spiritual experience.
So while you can claim shared interpretation as support for your spiritual beliefs, so can literally billions of others for different spiritual beliefs, completely invalidating all such claims. And the inability to establish that common spiritual beliefs are actually about the same phenomenon completely removes the possibility of any objectivity.
While it is extremely common throughout the world and throughout all time, there seems no spiritual necessity for people to seek an objective foundation for their spiritual beliefs. It is instead out of worldly necessity that some try to convince others that their spiritual beliefs are the only ones in the world that are right.
