one of the first points he or the holy spirit would make is that there is a whole system of labeling people that hear voices in their head so if you do not want to be drugged and labeled crazy right now then tell no one i am speaking to you. There is a large majority of people in the world that have communication with higher powers but manage to keep it all together.
We fear what we don't understand. The easy answer is to label people crazy.

It would help if we knew a little more about the party at the other end of their lines. All we are told is that there is a voice and this person who is speaking with that voice should be trusted to know exactly who the voice belongs to. Ignoring, for instance, that the fact said person is hearing voices only she/he can hear is discouraging in itself.

"Hearing His voice" is just a metaphor...not actually "talking". If you start hearing voices? Thats something else

I hear songs and music in my head everywhere I go.
I hear you loud and clear. Since we went to the moon that means anyone that can communicate telepathicaly is suffering from a mental health issue. Since we are on the subject let's consider anyone that believes that we did not go to the moon to be suffering from mental health issues also. If someone believes something that someone of authority can not percieve let's consider them to be suffering also.

Is that how we got to the moon? By fearing what we didn't understand?

Unsurprisingly, this is a mental health issue.....
.....attempting to claim that those suffering from this are actually hearing from a sky fairy (your sky fairy no less) in order to push your own agenda is quite contemptible.

In any event, bicameralism has nothing to do with mental illness. Did you read the link I provided before responding? If so, I would be happy to discuss specific points within it.

It seems that what folks here keep wanting to say, but no.
I am saying that the voice of God emanates from within the head. The original voice of God (in ancient times) could possibly be a result of bicameralism, meaning we are God. The current "voice of God" would relate more to internal noise, not internal dialogue.
In short: the voice of God is a perceptive misunderstanding.
