::I think only severely ill schizophrenics hear voices, and Joan of Arc seemed far too productive to be suffering from a debilitating disease. I'm not an expert on this issue, but find it fascinating.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 22:32, 17 February 2007 (EST)

There is a great book about [[Joan of Arc]] by [[Mark Twain]]. I beleive she did actually hear voices. If she was lying, would she go to the point of death because she was lying? Then that would be saying she was lying AND she was crazy. There were many investigations made by the [[Vatican]] and the Pope of the time (I cant remeber his name) and found that what she spoke was true, therefore canonizing her and proclaimed a Saint and patron of [[France]]. Now you should read more on this if you are intrested.
