\section*{Discussion}
\begin{multicols}{2}
    The question of whether there is some truth in (Christian) faith has largely been discussed as a collective question. That is, the answer would apply to the whole of humanity -- and that makes sense, since Christianity makes that claim itself (\mbox{Mt 28:19-20}, \mbox{Acts 11:18}). Although Kierkegaard and others are mentioned in chapter two of O'Collins, in contemporary discussions the collective faith is central. And that makes sense, because the outside world is perceived by everyone more or less the same (and can be measured), whereas the inner world of everyone is different. Yet, as explained above, many believers retreat to inner experiences to provide a foundation for their faith. 
    
    \begin{itemize}
        \item Is there any way inner experiences could meaningfully be incorporated into a public dialogue? This would mean deviating from Popper's falsifiability, so if someone were to propose this, he can expect massive criticism from the scientific community. Can such a position be reasonably defended?
        \item If they cannot provide any evidence for either side in the God debate, is it rational to rely on \emph{those} experiences to build one's faith? Wouldn't any solid ground allow itself to be shared with other intelligent agents?
    \end{itemize}
