Can you actually talk to deity so it answers?

Not currently, unless your character is skitzofrenic.

Heh, it'd be awesome if deities responded with random nonsense to characters with brain injuries.

Not as bad as it could have been, thankfully.

If deities responded to talking?  One word.

You can talk to Deities... they just won't speak back.

This fact will change in the distant future... though I doubt they will speak to anyone who calls their name.

Dang it... when is the god arc?

I once had a diety who was the god of worship.

People would worship him simply so he could bless them by giving them more time to worship him. A pretty good deal if you ask me.
