Hi, Rix, thanks for your kind note. In the note below my comments are in bold (if I did it right and I prolly didn't).

GFB wrote: Not uncommon for religious people to believe God has at some point spoken to them.

Mayhem: Yeah. It's not uncommon for crazymakers, terrorists and shooters 'to believe God' has at some point spoken to them too. Wonder which way the odds skew?

Mayhem: I've talked to a lot of Jesus' in my travels and I've never gotten a universally optimistic (or good) word from a single one of them. Heard lots more from those who've heard from Jesus. Those results are much less promising.
My record ? If you hear someone passing a msg on from the lord ... ignore it as has the RCC.

Ric:doubt terrorists quote Jesus.

Ric: And maybe you could clarify about all the Jesus' you've talked to.

Mayhem: Why would I? I don't remember having to answer to with you about anything.

Mayhen: You don't like what I say, and you can waste both our time's having to talk about it?

Mayhem: (OK. I'll talk about it. Five Jesuses, at least two Virgin Mary’s and several Gods. And it was the five different Jesuses from whom I got no ‘universally’ optimistic word. They were all over the conversational map which can be read as what it was. Unkindly put, they were all crazy. Now, I'd say, "I got nothing new or interesting from all those Jesuses.)

Ric: First of all, I doubt you can get a universally optimistic word fro anyone.

Mayhem: Why do you say, "First of all ..." when what you are saying is clearly "third" (of all)?
And why bring the Pope in on this?

Ric: dProllyt not even the Pope himself.
Traveling with you seems a depressing thought.

Mayhem: I have a great suggestion: never travel with me or give me a second thought. Perhaps then we can both be pleased with ourselves.

Ric: I think THAT will surely be easy to accomplish. I never really give you a second thought.

Oprah said God would tell her if she was supposed to run for president. She could be mentally ill.

It's OK if God talks to a liberal; it's only crazy if Jesus talks to a conservative.

[Ric]

O yes, you did. But you don't have to do it again. Do you?

I don't have to, no. Course,it IS my choice.

Conservatives are the ones who normally say they've heard Jesus speak. Truth be known: neither god nor jesus have much to say to any of us ... we are literally incorrigible. So... what's the point?

[mayhem]

I don't have to, no. Course,it IS my choice.

Then for heaven's sake; please quit talking to me!!!

I would, but I hate that it bothers you so.

Could you all just please stay on topic? For God's sake!

It's a great idea! Let's get back to susPENCE. That's the scary prospect for us all.

Now as I was saying: hear the word all you want; but NEVER, NEVER make life choices based on it. ESPECIALLY not for anyone else. Ever.

Millions upon millions of people make life choices based on it. Is that a good thing. I dunno. I think so. But consider.. what if you are (gasp!) wrong?

[planosteve]

Millions upon millions is a lot.

[mayhem]

Millions upon millions is a lot.

Yeah, esp when you realize that god has never spoken, to anyone, a damned thing.

That's subjective, of couse, but (and it'sa great big BUTT) you just can't find real evidence that a deity either has or hasn't.

Meanwhile evidence mounts for silence on god's part rather than chatty-datty.

(waving) So, are you like Joy, who believes its a mental illness, or Oprah, who is waiting to hear God's voice?

Obama thinks he is Jesus.

If you don’t believe Jehovah spoke to Moses, then the whole Judeo-Christian belief system is debunked ?

I thought he was a Moooslem.
