Religious Experience
Abstract
There is, says Sir Frederic Bartlett, very wide agreement that religion, as a powerful influence in human life, has its foundation in some form of experience. . . . Experience is something which happens to an individual in so striking and remarkable a way that he can distinguish it from other things that happen to him, and can talk or write about it, or express it in one of the forms of art that human beings have discovered. 1
