Serious Moderation Question:
Is 'FYP' no longer allowed?
Thanks.
What inner voice? I have thoughts in my head, but if those thoughts are not my own, but rather are the result of some spiritual force, then what's the point of me trying to reach any conclusions?
So you're conflating your "thoughts" with your inner voice.
But lots of religious traditions-- at least of the more esoteric variety deal with it. It's a significant part of Buddhism and discusses throughout the Castañeda books.

It's also more than conscious reasoning with yourself. Almost a cliche of an example is being stuck on some problem, an idea on how to make progress suddenly pops into your head seemingly out of nowhere. That''s because your unconcious mind is still processing it (or thinkign about it some might say) even when you think you're not thinking about it. Language via the inner voice can be how it manifests into your conciousness - certainly is with me but maybe there are other ways.
and much more.
Dont be so put off, there's more to thinking than DSM
You don't know what the DSM is, do you chez?
I dont practice and I never been diagnosed but I have a fair idea thanks.
Now have you got to grips with the simple idea of an inner voice?
Yes, the Son of Man is the source of judgment and wisdom through your conscience.
Whatever you identify with you become (ie: their voice becomes your voice). This is Christianity 101 as taught by Christ.
I obviously understand that Christians believe that the teachings of Christ should inform moral judgments.
I am asking a more basic question. Suppose that you are doing a crossword puzzle. The clue to 1 across is "a treat for monkeys." The answer is six letters long. The word "banana" pops into your head, and you write that word into the puzzle. Did the Son of Man come up with the answer or was it the biological result of neurons firing in your brain?

FALSE DICHOTOMY ALERT!!!
There are other possibilities other than pure spiritual explanations and pure biological ones. This discussion as been taking place in Philosophy at least since Descartes.

The answer to a crossword puzzle is not relevant to the existential, so it’s better to use a simpler model for this example.
The religious / spiritual model is not meant to be totalitarian.

I would probably say, “You have an aim to solve the crossword puzzle. Your biology / psychology aligns itself to achieve the desired goal. As a result, the answer you need to achieve the goal is revealed to you.
More of the model of a CEO and laborers below that fulfill the aim.

Simplification and reduction are the same side of a many-faced coin. Water in a bucket may be reduced through evaporation, but has it been simplified? Only those who understand the relationship between transformation and simplification can approach the answer. And is it fair to proclaim that the sun and wind have exerted dominion over the water in the bucket so long as sheets of rain lash the horizon? Dominion is fleeting until the fingers cease to work the loom. And foolish is the person who believes that the fingers control the loom, for the fingers are connected to the arm, and the arm to the body.

Wow, you got good at this game fast! I'm impressed!
Once you understand a human being has multiple voices / people within them, I can speak to the voice of your conscience in that language, and it’s still worthwhile…
…Even if you don’t identify with it (conscience), and therefore, recognize my message as nonsensical and foreign.

Very good, but I am a little sad you missed the opportunity to use "ephemeral".
Edit: NM, a quick search reveals you used it in one of these 3 days ago. Avoiding repetition, you're miles ahead of me.

What if I identify with conscience and still recognise your message as nonsensical and foreign? Where do we go from here? Are we at an impasse?
How long can a person survive and be healthy on a diet of only beef? Just curious bc it seems like it shouldn’t be that long…
She had severe arthritis that lead to ankle or hip surgery and she could barely walk. Also severe and hereditary depression. There's a growing field of research on inflammation.
She has severe food allergies. to determine what exactly youre allergies are you go on an elimination diet. Her list shrunk to meat.her arthritis and depression cleared up. Bloodworm looks good. 2 healthy kids
You can Google her, I'm guessing
she's significantly more attractive than the women these goblins in here could dream of landing
Also pay attention to who's gleefully mocking her conditions and suffering. She doesn't make money from this

What red-blooded guy isn't thirsty for a hottie who's semi-ambulatory, severely depressed, racked with major muscular-skeletal issues, and only eats literally nothing but red meat every day?

The mouse cannot talk to the cat. The cat's purr, while pleasing to the child, is nonsensical to the timorous mouse. They babble to each other as foreigners. But what is nonsensical to the mouse may be experienced as jellicle by those who see the cat for what it really is. And so it is with the stone and the stream. For the stone, the stream is an endless sandpaper, smoothing, smoothing, smoothing. But the stream desires only to flow, unimpeded by the stone. The stone's voice is inconquential to the stream, if it is a voice at all.
