Yes, it's a 2-way street. I've asked many times, especially when I was younger and without any doubt in god, to speak to me. Sadly, I heard nothing. But yes, go ahead and blame ME for gods' reluctance to communicate with me.
No, you're not getting it. You keep saying that we are discarding your personal experience as proof of god. That's exactly like discarding the personal experience of someone hallucinating. It can't be independently verified, so it's discarded.
What do you think about drugs and their place in your religion? I have a friend who is sort of die hard protestant, he wouldn't be making these kind of statements, he would be drugs are bad and anything under influence of them can be discarded. I'm just curious why would you side with the drug expirience and it's validity?

It seems you are more angry with what you don't undestand, not that you can't comunicate with it.
And if that's what only counts, why are you so opposed to the idea of god? People do confirm their belief in god even though outside may (people like you) say otherwise.
That's my point. So how can they be discounted just because it wasn't shared. Hallucinations have brought forth a lot of the worlds best art and even some important discoveries. So because one user didn't experience the same then it can not be a discounted experience.
