If I had no doubt that it was God, I would know that it wasn't God.
There always has to be doubt. Perhaps that's a safety valve. There's also the admonition to test instructions for validity with the bible. At least two references I've heard say. I'd also check with someone in a position of authority verified with other respected leaders. Given these checks passed, and the whole of my community were in agreement... no I still wouldn't do it. I'm an independent thinker who does what's on his own mind rather than what other people think.
