So, you were talking about The Bad Stuff™.  Self interest isn't one of those things.

Who the fuck cares about "sin"..I thought we were talking about how you find yourself thinking bad stuff with regularity, and then on the back of your depraved mind..assuming that we're all like you, lol?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

LOL.  Oh, yeah?  I didn’t know he had a direct number.  I’ll stick with thinking for myself, thanks.

God would be interested if you shared your thoughts directly to him. He already knows what you are thinking, but that doesn't interest him, unless you want to talk about it.
You can think towards God, without any rituals, that's what genuine prayer is...which shows that you've probably talked more often to God than you think you've ever been heard.
You may ask for specific evidence to assure you that he listens to you. How you do that, and how often, is entirely up to you.

Some people will say that it's just self fulfilling prophecy - making things up as you go.
Well, you are scientifically minded, so devise fool proof tests if you like.

Self centered is not the "self." English fail here.

The Bad Stuff, trade marked, is your invention, I never said anything about that, what I wrote was that thoughts don't always agree with doing good in reality.

That's not what you wrote at all, lol.  You said,.,.and I could quote but shouldn't have to..cuz it's in the fucking thread, that our thoughts often don't agree with doing good.

I'm suggesting that it's just you, because I don't have that problem. Then you started babbling to me about "sin" and gods I don't talk to.

Well, thanks for advising me that you are without sin, it paints a completely different picture of you.
I'd get rid of the trade marked "The Bad Stuff" though, it suggests that you aren't without sin.

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Really?

Feel free to demonstrate otherwise.
