You will believe what you want to and I can't change that so you will probably miss out on the wonders of God, but in the end you can't say you were not shown the truth. I for one hope that some day you might come to see the light of Christ and if you do the Holy Spirit is the one who will show you. There are real reasons the skeptic can't see the Bible for what it is and I believe that trust is a the center of those reasons.

GC,

I have taken two "too many" courses in psychology to trust that "little inner voice".  Sorry.  If God is speaking to Us via that mechanism, then he/she/it is speaking with a forked tongue.

 You have every right to your opinion, but I will say this psychology is not a sure thing deals with many variables , too many unknowns. That still quite voice from God is real regardless of what your opinion is, I've listened to it many times and know from who it came. Just as Jesus said my sheep will know my voice and I do. 

GC
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Are you sure, GC? Maybe "the voice" that you're hearing is that of an evil spirit who is deceiving you into not believing in the true religion? Or, perhaps, ET is real with a really strange sense of humor??

He's not hearing any voices at all.  It's pious theater.  God has never spoken to that man and he knows it, 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!

I think that GC (and, Drich, also) is sincere, but a bit brainwashed.

Nah, we've done this before.  Here, watch.

Hey, GC, you hearing voices bud?  Left, right or stereo?  Male or female?  Is there a history of schizophrenia in your family and can you recall any specific event from the onset of your hearing voices? Have you, since beginning to hear voices, spoken to a medical professional or mental health counselor? Does your family know that you hear voices, have you discussed this with your so/kids/siblings/whathaveyou? Your employer/employees or coworkers? Do the voices ever tell you to do anything, or not to do anything, and if so what sorts of things? Do the voices ever express opinions about other people, if so what sorts of opinions? Do the voices mainly narrate/monologue or do they engage in dialogue with you? How often, and at random or in regular intervals and/or on schedule? Do the voices seem to know what's on your mind or do they engage in lines of questioning to that effect? Are the voices disembodied or do they sometimes seem to come from people or objects around you?

Finally, what's the last thing you can remember hearing the voices say? Please be specific.

You hear voices and are a sheep.

Good to know.

Sheep hear voices?  Maybe that's why they are so fat??

 Like you or I believe in ET. I'm sure so sure I've given my life to it. What true religion would an evil spirit be trying to keep me from? Evil spirits would not use a religion that would be a divided house and we both know what happens to divided houses, they go "boom."

 It's not actually a voice, it is a communication through the spirit and it's real. Yes when it comes to a being that is omniscient I'm a sheep just as you are. I here in the orient they are grasshoppers, sheep step on grasshoppers you know.  It's to bad you can't understand the value in being submissive to an omniscient being who loves you more than anyone ever has.
