lol

Totally cynical. I hear hundreds of anecdotes about 'the medium couldn't have known it - impossible'.

I have had that said to me many many times - 'how did you know that?'

Like when I do the card tricks and they find their card in their jacket pocket....'it must be magic' lol

But NO ONE can ever answer those questions I posed - never. I don't think they are unreasonable - after all, they are asking us to believe a pretty amazing claim - that they can communicate with the dead....so why not tell us the answers...?

I'd say cynical is an understatement where Eldrick and psychics are concerned lol

I'm with Eldrick on this - I think mediums are rubbish mostly - if they were so clever they would all be rich and not having to readings for a living!! At the same time however, I do think some people are gifted - but these people don't generally advertise the fact or make money from it - I have a friend who "sees" things before they occur - have witnessed it time and time again as did many of us who worked with her. Made me very uncomfortable.

Just to balance things out you understand....

Can anyone who believes in psychic mediums explain a couple of things to me....please?

If these celebrity mediums truly have a 'gift' - is it morally right for them to charge £20 a head (or whatever it is) to do a stage show.....? Even the Pope doesnt charge for an audience - but then he doesn't relay messages from Great Aunt Mildred.

How come I can do just as good a reading as the mediums and I am not psychic? Even getting very specific things right about the person...very personal details that I couldn't possibly know....?

Why does a spirit never come right out and say 'This is Bartholemew Cholmondley here and the number of my secret bank account is ......' instead of....'Im getting a sense of someone....its J...James...John...can someone take him please....'

And theres millions more but these are the starters :-)

Please dont attack me personally, I am not attacking anyone else personally - but these are valid questions deserving of answers :-)
