Hearing voices was NOT the litmus test in the past the people on here seem to think it was. Making the claim that it was is moronic.
So you agree with me that there is no time-honoured test for distinguishing between the crazy people hearing voices and the prophets hearing voices? So then do you also agree with me that rational thing to do would be pretty much lump them all together?
