  "Of course,a close relationship will not last if one person does all the talking.(In this case it is me talking to god)Just as friends enjoy two-way communication,(right on)we should allow God to speak to us(yes I have allowed him to speak but he says nothing)and we should listen to him when he does.(Iam still waiting for him to say something)."That ahole.

  Iam still waiting for a reply,he has my email,facetime,facebook,twitter,instagram,iphone accounts.Nada,nothing, zilch,zero response.I have no relationship with that ahole,I told him to take a hike

  To Gina,you can read many books and know the authors names and have calming feeling to know that you have a close relationship with them but they don't give a shit about you.

  But, but God speaks to you everytime you see a rainbow or a lol cat or... or Brad Pitt (that is one fine looking man).

  He's more of a show without the tell kind guy.

  It's up to you how long you'll wait for him to reply. Personally I'd like to think he has better things to do, like making sure millions of children die of malnutrition every day when he supposed had the power to feed everyone.

  How long will you wait?

  The writer has a serious case of compartmentalization going on and so don't see the distinction between God speaking with his own voice and that of the Watchtower Corporation's directives to the rank and file members.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compartmentalization_(psychology))

  Compartmentalization is an unconscious psychological defense mechanism used to avoid cognitive dissonance, or the mental discomfort and anxiety caused by a person's having conflicting values, cognitions, emotions, beliefs, etc. within themselves.

  Compartmentalization allows these conflicting ideas to co-exist by inhibiting direct or explicit acknowledgement and interaction between separate compartmentalized self states. [1]

  The bottom line is: God isn't real. He doesn't exist except in people's imaginations. End of story!!

  Accoring to jw.org, God speaks to people through all watchtower publications so if you do not read them then the almighty has no words for you. so cultish
