Well, you mentioned being open to being led by god, and you're asking someone to prove that a god (which has never been established as existing in the first place) has stopped interacting with people.....so..whether or not god has interacted with you would be pretty relevant. You could easily falsify the claim that god has stopped interacting by establishing that a god interacted with you, and similarly this claim could be supported by asking everyone if god had interacted with them. If we don't get any affirmative responses then it would be a pretty solid claim....consider yourself the first in a broader survey.
and.......... a god -would- have to interact with you to lead you in anything. Your understanding of this gods will would have to be based on interaction with this god for it to be more than simply "your understanding" an authority you yourself have called into question by reference to the interpretation of the interpretation of the proverb in question (in our discussion).
So, relevant to both discussions, yes, I think so. Convenient for your continued involvement in apologetics..no...probably not.
(why do I get the feeling that I'll be answering a whole hell of alot of questions in this discussion without much reciprocation?)
