[In response to the fact that a bush can't talk]

And how do you know that a bush doesn't have something that would allow it to speak, and we merely don't know about it? Humanities scientific knowledge is nowhere near perfect. Maybe a bush can speak, and we just don't yet understand why.

Show me a bush with a brain & thus possessing sentience, and a way of talking at least in a way that can be understood by humans, certainly intelligently...

...then we'll talk. (Pun extremely intended)

PROTIP: Oh, and Washoe the Chimpanzee; also Kanzi the Bonobo. Can you say 'Sign Language'? I know you can.

'Humanities scientific knowledge is nowhere near perfect. Maybe a bush can speak, and we just don't yet understand why', you say? Yeah...:

...and $cientology founder L. Ron Hubbard can 'Audit' a tomato plant, to get it to tell him what the end of the anime series "The Big O" was really about, and not 'open to the viewers' "interpretation"', amirite?![/hyper-sarcasm]

Unless it's a trick like someone hidden speaking close enough or transmitting their voice close enough using psysical means, it would need something sentient or a recording written by such, and a system that can transmit vibrations into its wood, meaning that something physical and external to the plant is necessary. If the argument is that the plant should speak for a divine entity, it presupposes that such claimed non-physical entity can still physically manifest in some way, magic. It comes back to the original miracle argument, that doesn't need extra self-defeating modern pseudoscientific apologetics. Except to try to promote that idea, despite the lack of evidence of divine intervention in the world, plus all the strong evidence supporting the fact that human imagination and traditions invent and vehiculate these ideas by themselves. Wood is pretty well understood and there is no reason to believe that it could have sentience, a nervous system or vocal system. If you "hear their voices", it's for psychotropic or psychiatric reasons...
