Sometimes those people are the ones who need to hear them the most.

"Should we decline to discuss our beliefs or non-beliefs with people who appear to be emotionally vulnerable?"
For me? Yes.

"even if they ask?"
Then I'll be as truthful as I can without elaborating as much as I might with a 'normal' person.

Good point.

But with so much trolling going on who is to know?

It depends on your orientation. Are you trying to help them, or take advantage of them?

I hear the voice of a spirit that claims to be God™.

That means conversation with a spirit that claims to be God Almighty. Maybe He is lying, but that is what He say's. He and I do not 'get along' well.

Absolutely. I pick and choose who I will tell what I've been told, and what it is I will tell them.

Should I not ask my children to cross the road because they want to decline my belief that they will possibly get run over?

I wouldn't decline to discuss my beliefs with someone who is emotionally vulnerable. I might however, refuse to discuss my faith with hostile people who only want to provoke me. Angry people do no good for anyone.

Why? People need help.
