And that kind of illustration is exactly what I think invalidates the use (or, at least, exclusive use) of "gut" or "spiritual" feeling over and above intellect and use of logic and objective evidence. Which one of you has really been spoken to by the Holy Spirit, you or Victor? Both? Neither? There's no way that I can think of to objectify that, and such experiences and feelings are only sufficient to convince one person: you, and very subjectively at that.
Fair enough; the author admits it's more about understanding than conversion.
I agree. Thanks so much for your thoughts, Katz!
