Give them their due. One of their heros put a knife to his own son because, "God told him to".
This is what I mean. In the Bible when a character claimed they heard voices, as long as the writer set him or her up as a hero/heroine, then it was OKAY to hear and obey the voices. When someone does it today you have Christians trying their darndest to distance themselves from such people.
some of them always say they did something because god told them to. Why is it that the ones who claim this think that it somehow justifies their actions?
I am curious....what is your response to someone who says they did something because of their intuition? That they did something because their intuition led them to it and they trust their intution?

I think there's a difference between someone who says god told them to do something and someone who says their intuition led them to do something. When someone claims they did something 'because god said so' they aren't taking responsibility for their actions, they're trying to blame something else for what they did. On the otherhand, someone who says that their intuition led them to do something isn't blaming someone else for why they did what they did.

do you consider intuition a valid source of guidance and direction?
and what exacatly is intuition anyway?

Intuition is your guide that leads you toward God. We all have it, some just don't know how to tap into it as well as other.
Yes, intuition is a valid source when it's positive because it comes from our own God fragment. If it leads you to do a negative action, it's not of God. And if it is negative, it usually means that the person has a dark soul and cannot hear or sense their guide.

Not to nit pick here, but why is it that intuition for good is godly and for not good is from a dark soul? Rather a convient argument for one side of religion.
How about, intuition just is. It is neither good nor bad. It is what you make it.

Yes, intuition just is and we all have different beliefs concerning it. I do believe that intuition is part of the many gifts that God bestows on us and when used properly, we can make our own lives like heaven on earth.
To me, if a person is using their intuition for bad, lets say murder, that person is either being guided by dark souls or his own soul is dark.
A good person is either being guided by light souls or their own soul is light.

Is there any proof for that or is it that you're day dreaming again?
This doesn't pertain to all believers, but I've noticed that some of them always say they did something because god told them to. Why is it that the ones who claim this think that it somehow justifies their actions?
If "GOD" tells me to do something you damn well better believe I'm going to do it and Yes, It would absolutely justify my actions.
The real question is how do you know if its God, Satan or the voices in your head telling you what to do.
