One of the fundamental logical errors that atheists make is in assuming that personal non-experience of a proposition equals the falsehood of said proposition.

Exactly. I think it is very difficult to understand religious belief from the outside. I am an Orthodox Christian. A number of years ago I read an article in Christianity Today titled, "Why I am Not Orthodox" -- written by an evangelical who had lived in Russia for many years and had gone to Orthodox liturgies many times. His critique of Orthodoxy showed that he had no understanding of it whatsoever, and that's because he was looking at it from the outside, years of living in Russia and attending liturgies notwithstanding.
