God is All Knowing and He decides how He wishes to address us.

does not feel like it.
Which is it?

What makes you think God can’t speak English? He can do anything He wishes.
You is one confused dude. Here are your own words...in bold
Never did understand why an all powerful being has to rely upon us mere mortal men and women to do everything for them...
Because we are human and can only be communicated to by humans. So God appoints One in human form to communicate with us.
There's nothing wrong with that. We are human so must be communicated to in a form and language we can understand so God sends someone in human form to convey His Will. God is not a human being and if He appeared to us in His original form it would be like the sun descending to the earth. We could not withstand it. So He sends Messengers which are His Rays to us to communicate with us according to our capacity and language.
In every world, He appears according to the capacity of that world. For example, in the world of spirits He manifests Himself to them and appears unto them with the signs of the Spirit. So, likewise, in bodies in the world of names and attributes.
Verily, were God the Exalted to appear in His (proper) grade and form, and in a manner befitting His Station, no one could ever approach Him or endure to be near Him.(Baha’u’llah)
IOW he (it) lacks the capacity to make himself understood.
Which makes sense, as a thing that does not even exist
is lacking in any capacity to do anything.
So we get these phonies or nuts who pretend that "god"
spoke to them.
It is still the same thing, “god” is unable to do it. He ain’t muchThe human body and psyche has limitations so it lacks the ability of direct communication with God and requires an Intermefiary which are the Prophets Who appear in human form but are created from a different substance not of this world able to receive direct revelations from God.

of a god if he needs help, not much of a god if he can’t tone it down.
Billions of people also used to think the world was flat.They are only phonies to you. Billions of people disagree and believe in God and His Prophets as legitimately from God.
Seems a bit of a design flaw creating something you cannot communicate with.God sends an Intermediary depending on what species He wishes to communicate with. No created beings have the ability or capacity to receive direct revelations from God. The Prophets are not ordinary human beings but pre existent Beings endowed with special capacity to receive direct revelations from a God. The average human cannot.

One wonders what else this God of yours can not do
loverofhumanity, kindly accept that the philosophy of your religion is at least 1400 years old and people of 21st Century who have studied science will not accept it even if they do not laugh at you at your face for your ante-antediluvian views. This is not the age to talk about prophets \ sons \ messengers \ manifesttions \ mahdis.God sends an Intermediary depending on what species He wishes to communicate with. No created beings have the ability or capacity to receive direct revelations from God. The Prophets are not ordinary human beings but pre existent Beings endowed with special capacity to receive direct revelations from a God. The average human cannot.

Appeal to numbers does not help your claims.
took me a while to think of this...And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden. ..
But then I am not a goddie who studies the book
What is your excuse?
Then they consider me a hell bound sinner, because I know that y'all are wrong and say so.
Out loud.

You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.
23 “Therefore, the Kingdom of Heaven can be compared to a king who decided to bring his accounts up to date with servants who had borrowed money from him. 24 In the process, one of his debtors was brought in who owed him millions of dollars. 25 He couldn’t pay, so his master ordered that he be sold—along with his wife, his children, and everything he owned—to pay the debt.
26 “But the man fell down before his master and begged him, ‘Please, be patient with me, and I will pay it all.’ 27 Then his master was filled with pity for him, and he released him and forgave his debt.
28 “But when the man left the king, he went to a fellow servant who owed him a few thousand dollars. He grabbed him by the throat and demanded instant payment.
29 “His fellow servant fell down before him and begged for a little more time. ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it,’ he pleaded. 30 But his creditor wouldn’t wait. He had the man arrested and put in prison until the debt could be paid in full.
31 “When some of the other servants saw this, they were very upset. They went to the king and told him everything that had happened. 32 Then the king called in the man he had forgiven and said, ‘You evil servant! I forgave you that tremendous debt because you pleaded with me. 33 Shouldn’t you have mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you?’ 34 Then the angry king sent the man to prison to be tortured until he had paid his entire debt.
First prove the existence of God, before we pass on to divine messages and divine manifestations.My understanding is that inspiration from God ..
