Not to talk down on your beliefs or anything, but I'll see if I can find other explanations for some of the things you said.

Really?
In October of 1917 around 70,000 people witnessed "something" happen to the sun in Fatima, Portugal. They attributed it to a miracle by the Virgin Mary, but that is not the point. Did something happen or not? It was witnessed by 70,000.
It could be that something did indeed happen, it could also be some form of mass hysteria. A few people thinking they've seen something, and this spreading throughout the group, where people, even if they didn't see something, will still be convinced they did.
Have you ever seen a very large meteor?
Personally, no. I have seen some pretty large craters though.
How do you know they exist?
The craters I mentioned above.
Did you read some book, which you believe, which told you so?
I saw the evidence they left, that convinced me. Is there a chance a large meteor didn't make them? Yes, but the possibilities are endless, and so, since we know big rocks fly around in space, we know rocks from space enter our atmosphere, and we know there are pretty big craters in the ground, not to mention the KT barrier in the ground layers, I'm pretty sure large meteor's exists.
Other than me, have you ever met anyone who has seen a very large meteor enter the atmosphere? (I'm not talking shooting stars here.)
No, but I'm not sure you did either. Perhaps you saw a much smaller meteor, but your mind made it out to be much bigger.
P.S. You seem to be saying that if one person experiences something it is subjective. So do two subjective expierences equal one objective experience? Or what number is required? Or does it depend on what YOU believe?
Experiences are NEVER objective. Only evidence everyone can look at and examine is.
There are more people in the world who believe in God like me than don't like you. Does that prove you out out on the lunatic fringe?
Actually that's not true. There are only about 1 billion Christians (I'm assuming you are one, it's even less if you are a Jew, and slightly more when you are a Muslim), so that would mean that most people DON'T believe in the same god you do.
I hunt for the truth
