On the brighter side..."One ringy dingy...Is this the person to whom I am speaking?"

People have no clue of psychological processes in their brains.

The fact that a believer can be a non-believer one day, and vice versa, just goes to show that what people experience depends on brain mentation and nothing else.

My standard response when someone tells me 'God told them' something is:

'Really? What did their voice sound like? Was it deep? Do they have an accent? Was it a man or a woman?'. LOL -- honest, I usually do.

A lot of religious people would get a real education if they did watch Lily Tomlin or George Carlin or Colbert.

Actually I get the impression that most religious people accept the silly notion that God speaks to them.
