O.K., here's my thinking on this.  I can believe, against all evidence to 
the contrary (worked at a rehab center and saw a whole bunch of dry 
alcholics and can recognize one about a mile away, so had no problem 
recognizing the one in the White House) that maybe some people *think* they 
"hear" god talking to them.

Now, let's follow my line of thinking.  IF your god is the god that people 
claim he is, and IF he is soooooo far removed from the god of the terrorists 
and radical fundamentalists Muslims, then WHY would he be talking to Bush 
and telling him to start a war and KILL 100s of thousands of women, children 
and the elderly?

And please don't tell me it's about choice.  If this was another one of 
those tests where he tells the guy to kill his son to prove his love, then, 
theoretically speaking, and following the usual steps that were taken in a 
certain book, he'd have stopped him just in the nick of time.
