God talks to me in my dreams.
 
He appears to me as a gigantic, solid gold Marshall amplifier. Within the feedback that rips out of the Golden Amp I hear a faint, childlike voice that is almost too distant to understand. But the voice isn't hidden in the feedback, it is the source of the feedback. The feedback is always in the same tone as the shifting tone of the child voice. Sometimes, in the real world, I can hear the childlike voice from normal feedbacking amps but the voice is always too distant to make out. God asks me about people. People I know. I don't know if I should be listening to the Golden Amp because I know that crazy people are said to talk to things and think they are talking to God but this is so real. I bought am amp the other day. The biggest one I could find. An Ibanez 35 watt combo bass amp. I don't think I'll be able to pay next months rent because of it but that's not important. I also borrowed my brother's Line 6 POD. I don't know what I'll do when he wants it back.

11 The LORD said, "Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the LORD, for the LORD is about to pass by."
Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. 12 After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. 13 When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.
Then a voice said to him, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"

So you're saying that Elijah was insane...

well according to a modern psych book, but lets be honest. a lot of people claim to talk too or listen to God, and they are CLEARLY not crazy, as they have control over themselves socially and physically. they are normal people. you might think they are insane because they say they hear god, but you and I both know that there is a big difference between normal people who claim to hear or speak to god, and clinically insane people who do the same. it is far to condescending of you to compare the two obviously different kinds of people.

further, only ignorant, highly self-righteous and opinionated psychs associate communicating with God as a voice in your head as being crazy. they understand that there are MANY more criteria for insanity, particularly a lack of self-control and normal social behavior ....

Coincidentally, who is the person in the picture, in your signature?

SynthethicalY 09.30.2007 02:30 PM

God is my hero. But I am more in touch with Jesus, he is my homeboy.
