Michael Shermer Debunks James Van Praagh & Psychics

hahahahahahahahahahahahhaha man your an angry person. All im doing is giving an opinion. Im not religious but im just talking of the facts I have seen atheists saying and attacking people. Some writers are writing about it all the time. MORON

Psychics only get in the way while real hard-working investigators solve cases.

You're a F**king moron. Science is a religion and leads to fascism? HOW RETARDED ARE YOU?!

The skills of bullshiting and munipulation sure exist, but telepathy and telekinesis? Give a F**king break. The government WASTED loads of money researching and testing and the end result showed it for what it really was, utter crap.

The government did do a decade of research and use of psychic abilities such as telepathy and telekineses. These skills do in fact exist.

Spirit talking and cold reading IS a bunch of BS.

HOw can someboday live a lie for immoral reasons? Obviously Money and the feeling of grandeur. How would you feel when people believe you can see the past and future? Wouldnt that be great?? Psychoanalyze that.

Hate to tell you, but I witnessed a Leslie Flint seance whereby spirit communication confirmed that James vanPraagh would be doing this type of work BEFORE JAMES EVER TRULY DEVELOPED -and I taped that communication.(Anyone interested in Leslie Flint's work?Go to the website.Great communication you can hear and learn from).Dr. Noreen Virtue's comments here are absolutely correct.Fear,indeed,will create such blocks to see the truth of people who do have the gift.Open mind/eyes.

I hate how people freakin put - when you said that. even if it isn't true they still have to be debunkers instead of skeptics trying to convince you of their beliefs. Science is fast becoming a religion and we'll have fascism soon

The best psychics are healers and teachers. They will teach their clients the techniques to develop and open their own psychic centers so they no longer feel the need to seek out the advice and support of others - furthermore these clients themselves can become teachers and healers sharing their experiences and techniques. Competent Reiki channels can do everything Van Praagh thinks he can do and a lot more.

Let's face it talking to dead people is non-productive, but healing is better.

There is definitely something else out there. I've experienced it. What it is, I don't know.

No cases have ever been solved by psychics.

real psychics never work for money,or publicity, or fame, ask the many police agencies around the world who have had cases solved by psychics.........

Ah, the "psychics'" favorite catch phrase: be open minded. Quite honestly, 90% of skeptics are extremely open minded and simply want evidence. Many believers are closed-minded and suffering from "True Believer Syndrome." The phrase sounds good on television, but it certainly doesn't hold up.

What an evil bastard. He should be in jail.

In case somebody here doesn't know: There are NO "psychics" in the world and there never has been. Every single one that is tested scientifically is always shown to be a fraud.
And it will still be like that every time, because such abilities do not exist.

That's a good point. How can someone constanly be living a lie and for such immoral reasons.

They believe it because they are in a desperate emotional situation, and they therefore want/need to believe it. What I want to know, is how can someone be so evil? James Van Praagh uses these desperate people.

some people are more driven by emotions than by reason, and they are willing to belive in any S**t

Honestly, how is it possible that even one person on this planet is stupid (and stupid is not nearly strong enough a word) to believe the garbage people like James Van Praagh dish out?

When are people going to learn? There are NO SUCH things as psychics! You might as well believe in Santa...the fat bastard.

interesting

no. he's gay

thats a way of saying "I know i have no evidence to prove this, it makes me more believable in front of a crowd, they think im honest, but really, i can make huge money out this"

I dont know were that insecurity comes from, maybe because of your mental retardation and your inability to accept the fact that he is way smarter than you, or perhaps the fact that you look at your friends in wierdways, maybe thats why you call other people gay

he is still gay
