You can talk to Christ and he will listen but communication is not the same as here.

What I did was pray for a vision/sign to show me that he does answer. I got my answers in the form of dreams and it was up to me to interpret the message or not.

now I'm no saint myself. I consider myself a really bad person for the things i did but the lord as mercy on those that like a good fight. We battle with demons daily in our lives and all is necessary to "test" your soul worthy of saving.
