There is something very wrong here, from a rationalist's point of view.

Seems to me the wrong thing is exactly that experiments are not allowed in the debate. Leaving out the voice of reality, all we are left with are the voices of humans. And humans are well known liars.

The trouble with trying to run experiments to prove the existence of God is that it's very, very difficult to catch out a reclusive omniscient being.
