Subjective revelation
Summary: Critics complain that the LDS appeal to "revelation" or a "burning in the bosom" is subjective, emotion-based, and thus unreliable and susceptible to self-deception. Sectarian critics also belittle appeals to spiritual experiences, comparing them to "warm fuzzies," or merely something "felt by simply watching a Hollywood movie."Jump to Subtopic:

- Question: Why do critics of Mormonism who belong to other religions discount spiritual experiences?
