Please allow me to weigh in on this subject too. Personal experiences are just that, "personal experiences", epiphanies cannot be shared, by definition it is an internal process that perhaps you can tell someone about, but cannot truly share with them--they have to have the experience themselves.The problem, as I see it, is when people try to apply their own experiences to the lives of others. Revelation is not a wholesale experience, it comes from God (or whatever you conceive the Force to be) to you individually, revelation as is claimed for the Bible is a contradiction in terms.Sadly, there are a lot of people in many different religions who feel that their personal revelations can and should be forced onto others--even with violence if necessary. My own life is guided by my epiphanies or revelations from the Creative Force, but I don't require others to live by my lights because they are children of Creation no less than I and have their own relationship with God.
