Schizophrenia (from the Greek word ÏÏιζοÏÏÎνεια, or shjzofre'neja, meaning "split mind") is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a mental disorder characterized by impairments in the perception or expression of reality and by significant social or occupational dysfunction. A person experiencing schizophrenia is typically characterized as demonstrating disorganized thinking, and as experiencing delusions or hallucinations, in particular auditory hallucinations.[1]

Praying is just a fancy word
for talking.
As far as God talking to us,
did you expect evil to call it real
or a sickness. :)

Hmmm. I'd use the word "delusional"
with obvious respect to professor Dawkins.

Because it's one thing to think you are speaking to an invisible being - it's quite another to imagine that it answers you.
