I didn't expect you to hear.
I couldn't hear when I was under that RELIGIOUS SPIRIT's influence, either.

Luk 11:29 And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.
