The Voice of God
#17
RE: The Voice of God
I've had people talk to me when I've been alone - not on the electric telephone either. Usually as I've been in that twilight region between sleep and wakefulness, where my body and senses are fully alert but my mind is drifting into sleep. Were I of a religious mindset I might attribute this to a god or demon. However, I'm fully aware of hos powerful the dreaming mind can be and how completely the illusion can seem. Nothing to do with sanity or lack thereof, merely an audiitory hallucination caused by a waking dream state.

One time, back in the day, I heard my Sam (who was visiting friends three floors up) outside the bedroom and calling my name in some distress. I leaped out of bed and flung wide the door, but I was alone. I even went out onto the landing and up the stairs - how I'd explain my nakedidity to the neighbours was the farthest thing from my mind - but nothing. It was about an hour later that I heard her tapping her way down the stairs and in through the door, safe and unconcerned. I wonder how many 'god' experiences have the same explanation?
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.'
