Cut it out with the preaching; we don't want to hear it. I am, however,
interested in your claim that spirits talk[ed] to you. Could you
explain, being very descriptive, the complete encounter? What did you
hear, see, smell, etc. What was your physical condition at the time
(were you tired, ill, etc.). Most of the people on this list aren't
going to believe that you actually communicated with spirits, especially
not by you just claiming you did. Where is your proof?
