As in, the sound becomes the "silent" or norm for you, it could be that God was talking to us from the beginning of time so much so that it became normalized and we no longer "hear it". Maybe we should listen more. Just saying.
Okay, so maybe "God" has been talking all along. Is that it, are you just going to stop there? Or are you postulating some way to test for that 'maybe'?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

"God" is silent, but jeez some of its followers are fucking noisy.

OK then
1. It Signifigantly Increases Your Risk Of Cancer
Ignoring the crappy spelling, this is false. In fact the article immediately specifies processed meat without specifying what process. The article then claims "A vast array of studies from top universities and independent researchers has found that eating chickens, cows, and other animals promotes cancer in many forms." backed up by a citation t PETA, a vile organisation.
2. It Increases Your Risk Of Heart Disease And Diabetes
Baloney. Citing the Daily Mail is an instant fail. If one were to place any faith in their shoddy scare headlines, simply existing causes cancer.
Take a close look at their scary list. It includes pretty much everything

3. Eating Meat Makes It Harder To Maintain A Healthy Body Weight
Utter rot. Overeating causes that.
4. Meat Carries The Highest Risk Of Foodborne Illness
False. Improper storage/preparation/cleanliness does that.
5. It Might Contribute To Erectile Dysfunction In Men
It "might"??? Anyhoo, I can personally attest to not an issue in that regard. I am a meaty tripod.
6. Most Meat Has Hormones In It
Yeah. So do people, even vegans.
7. It May Make You Resistant To Antibiotics
Absolutely false. People do not become antibiotic resistant anywhere ever. Bacteria do.
8. It Increases Your Risk Of Death
Everyone's risk of death is 100%
Feel free to nibble on all the grass you like, jackass. More meat for the rest of us.

Your salvation, Jesus died so you could have it. What you speak about is the physical, God is interested in your eternal soul even when you are not. God has put us here to feed the hungry and discover ways to cure diseases and other useful things, when will you start to help these people.

What about me, I know without doubt God exists and need no convincing in the matter and it is you I hope will come to the same realization. Seeking the only God who created all things is something all need to do.

I honestly believe that helps you get by. That it stirs the fires of your purpose and gives your humanity meaning. I can honestly believe that you believe you know. Your faith in your belief wasn’t the question. It was your concivction to the process of maintaining that belief. It’s like celebrating your fish’s birthday because your convinced he cares. It’s sweet and endearing and helps you feel good.

Soooo.. in other words it boils down to this..
You will only hear gods voice, if you believe that you own thoughts are actually god putting thoughts in your head.
and you can only do this if you believe in god, who you can be confident exists because you believe he does.
It's no wonder there are so many gods to choose from, almost as if we make the darn things up.. god forbid.

If I could simply speak things into existence I wouldn't be quiet for long.

Fool.
Science already established that it is man behavior that cause diseases.
Nothing to do with God.

Clearly, they're creating all that noise to make up for his silence.
