I have addressed the use of the word "know" in this context. You seem to be pretending I haven't. If, in your personal opinion, people can have "real" supernatural experiences, then that is your prerogative.

There is no need for you to answer the question. Your deflection is an answer in itself.

I have explained my opinion about the use of the word "know" regarding religious faith and other supernatural things - including on this thread - and that opinion has not changed.

I understand why it would be inconvenient to ‘repeat yourself’ now if in fact you have said something that even remotely answers the question I asked in the past.

If you think I should go back and read the tens of thousands of posts you have made and hopefully find one of them that answers the question I asked you, then I wish you well.

Yes you should do that. If thousands of posts on the issue are being ignored, and writing them had no effect on you, there is no reason to write any more.

Here is the question you are still dodging:

How do you know that it’s impossible for anyone to have a real authentic supernatural experience?
