Surely it is not accidental, it's human psychology common to humans of all creeds and eras. Whatever the mechanics they are quite possibly the same whether the participant thinks they are speaking to God or not.


Lately I've been learning bit about the Tulpamancy community. They actively create the :scratch: entities that they interact with, usually not associating these thought forms with God. They tend to see these thought forms as being separate beings from themselves - which I think would be difficult to understand if you haven't experienced such a thing. To me, this too seems to be a variant of the same kind of psychological process.
