I mean it worked for Paul right? And David killed Goliath before God spoke to him. Why is it that God only seems to talk to murderers. Now Moses went up and talked to God after he had the Red Sea close in on Pharohs men and drowned them; but not until Moses makes good on killing does god talk to him. He didn't seem to be around when sAtAn was talking to Eve and I'm sure if a talking serpent came up to you and started to say things you would think that it was God and would follow it. I mean according to The Bible "GOD TALKS" he has a way of communicating. He spoke to Mary and then Joseph, here actually would be the good question, HOW MANY PEOPLE HAS GOD TALKED TO? I ain't one of them and I feel short changed. I mean what kinda friend doesn't talk to his buddy? Hey pal? Am I like too stupid for you to communicate with? HEY GOD! Can ya maybe e-mail me? Is there a chance that he has got so old that he too is losing his hearing and eyesight or just WONT SEE ABOUT MY CONCERNS?

God will talk to you if you believe in him, respect him, and believe he is the one true God. You don't go killing christians just for God to speak to you, it takes faith. Just like Paul.

You are being stupid, but I will answer anyway.
God spoke to Adam and Eve and even walked with them. They knew full well and good that God created everything and the serpent was not a diety. I know he heard the entire conversation and did not intervene because of free will.
But, as you see he spoke with those before they murdered. But, might I point out that David killed Goliath in combat so it was not murder.
Cain and Moses were indeed murderers, but Moses killed long before Pharaoh died in a watery grave. If they had not pursued they would not have died.
God also spoke to Enoch, Noah, Sarah, Rachel, Samuel, Elijah, Elisha, Solomon, Isaiah, John, Mary, and Joseph. Sometimes with an Angel, but let us not quibble since it was most likely audible. Also when Jesus was Baptized I believe an audible voice spoke to a whole crowd and it is very likely they all were murderers or soldiers who had killed in combat.
Jesus is your friend, not God, though with the Trinity it is a hard point to make. God speaks more to our hearts than with words. I hate to say "you get a feeling," but that does about sum it up.
He is never reported to have talked to Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Bendigo any of the Disciples save John, and scores of "better" and more "Godly" men than you or I. So, consider yourself in good company and quit looking for signs.
Matthew 12:39
He answered, "A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a miraculous sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.
Matthew 12:38-40 (in Context)
Luke 11:29
[ The Sign of Jonah ] As the crowds increased, Jesus said, "This is a wicked generation. It asks for a miraculous sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.

You are an irreligious missionary who is trying to kill Christians in the spiritual sense.
You thinking you are doing mankind a favor is a sign you haven't gotten out of your comfy little nest in the US.
I live in a country where morality is almost nonexistent.
The country itself is crippled by the corruptness of its officials and judges so badly that there is a collapse of the economy and judicial system. Starvation, misery, no medical, malnutrition, no income when you are old or disabled. Many children are thrown out in the streets because the morally bankrupt parents are more concerned with their own well-being than anything else.
The men abuse their wives/girlfriends, children, spend all the money they have on drinking, gambling, other girlfriends, prostitutes, while their families lack basic necessities(food, shelter, clothing)
When one of these men accept Christ the change is dramatic. They no longer waste their money, their children no longer have to fear the beating the used to get when they came home drunk.
They take care of the family instead of chasing after other women.
The quality of life for these families is like night and day when they accept this religion that you seem to loathe.
I am sorry you live in your little UStopia and haven't seen the end result of what you are preaching. Live in the third world for awhile and pay attention to what's going on in these cultures and maybe you will let people have their illusions realizing it may not be as bad as the alternative.
By the way God does speak to me because I seek him with all of my heart. The same promise he makes to us all, "seek and you will find".

God has his reasons to talk to who ever he chooses and how he chooses. Now I'am not saying he choose not to talk to you. He has and does talk to you, just not in the way you expected him to (directly) Murdering people wont make him mad enought to talk to you. God is slow to anger .God used different people in the Bible to carry out his will. Moses was instructed to lead God's people out of Egypt. Moses did not murder Pharaoh.s men .God chose to rid Pharaoh of his rein in Egypt God used Paul to preach his word. God spoke to Mary and Joseph to carry (literary) out his ultimate will .His son. To answer your question
"HOW MANY PEOPLE DOES GOD TALK TO?' Well, like you said he talks to murderers. The sins of every living person who has walked this Earth has murdered Christ .God used his own son to deal with sin (murderers) through open arms nailed to a cross.God desires a relatioship with you . You are his prize creation .Read more in the New Testament about life and salvation and most importantly a relartionship with Christ

God talks to people through His Word. I am a good Christian and I haven't directly had God talk to me yet either, just wait for it, read the Bible everyday and talk to God through prayer.

I guess god would have a mouth to speak with...as well as a respiratory system cause we need to breathe to speak...a tongue to pronounce letters...a larynx/ voice-box for us to hear him...i'm guessing with an amplifying system....and a language.
I don't need a god like this.

No please don't go out and kill people, please. I'm pretty sure, according to Christian beliefs, you should have a clean heart and confessed sins to speak to or be in the presence of God. Something like that. Sorry that I can't give you a good answer.
You're probably going at this in a wrong way or something....
