Does this offend you?

[SOUNWORTHY]

I hear voices all the time. Squeeky little voices, big booming voices. They tell me I am in big trouble. They just won't go away, away, away,away awa................

... and no, I'm no "offended" by the ad. I am offended that the hot lusty babes are going after Murph and RandyWayne, however, and not me.

Time to hit the gym, I suppose. That's something the voices never even bring up, for some reason or another.

And what's Red Rum? Is that some kind of alcoholic drink? I don't think that I like the sounds of that, but they keep saying it over and over. ???

Mine says "Recalculating" a lot... especially when I don't listen to her.

Not necessarily. I had a friend that heard and SAW dead people. Finally, the doctors discovered her hormones were out of wack. Once that was under control the voices stopped.

Her husband was sure glad of that. She would talk back to them even in the night.

That is the first thing I thought also, and i do believe in the gift of tongues as well as the prayer language. However there is also a demonic tongues that those who are possessed speak in. I have seen it.

"Speaking in tongues" is a very ancient phenomena that predates Christianity and even Judaism. It was a significant feature at the various "oracles" in the ancient world such as Delphi.
