"It amazes me how these people have the nerve to charge a fee for talking shit..." They are not alone in taking money for talking shite... Bottom line is only those that want to believe pay for the service, but we have to pay our Mayor to make our roads slower and to park outside our homes even when we don't believe the shit he talks ;-( | |||

"Somedays I can't even communicate with the living. " Lol | |||

"Somedays I can't even communicate with the living. " Ha ha brilliant reply! | |||

"What are peoples opinions on people that claim they can talk to the dead or heal people using their powers. Personally I think its utter bullshit." Yes, I think the same. Total nonsense. | |||
"What are peoples opinions on people that claim they can talk to the dead or heal people using their powers. Personally I think its utter bullshit. " No one has psychic powers. No one. Mediums cannot communicate with the dead. Healing is a slightly different concept. If your mum cuddled you , kissed your wounds and told you all will be okay - your mind settles, you trust her, you calm , you feel better. In effect she aided your healing with her humanity and caring. If your mum looks at your wounds and says HEAL or Blood Stop Flowing..... she's not going to have much luck. Healers = experienced doctors , nurses, councillors , family, partners etc ...... yes they can comfort you and contribute to your well being. Healers that try to lay hands on your cancer and cause it to die. No chance. Anyone paying them should be locked up. | |||

"people can believe any old tripe as far as i care, but i really have a problem with it as soon as money is being made...its a very sordid business, using peoples fraility, and /or stupidity against them for financial gain.." agree | |||
| |||
| |||
| |||
| |||
"I say people not force into it have rights for own opinion same as beening or belive in Christian. " you can practice your faith without being charged for it...there is a digusting trade in preying on the ill for financial gain...i saw a friend who died of cancer being harrassed by the most aggressive marketing from complete charlatans...she was christian and her church and their comunity supported her fantasticaly right through to her death and managed not to screw money out of her! | |||
| |||
"I wonder why the psychic TV channel needs a programme guide listing " So people know what's on? Not everyone watching is a psychic | |||
"people can believe any old tripe as far as i care, but i really have a problem with it as soon as money is being made...its a very sordid business, using peoples fraility, and /or stupidity against them for financial gain.." exploitation is wrong but your also talking generically about the main religions who do very well out of people wanting to contribute financially.. not judging anyone who has a belief system that they feel gives them succour, support etc and not a dig at the majority within the main religions who do good.. shaking the collection bag is not that dissimilar to charging an entrance fee.. | |||

" i think a couple of quid in a collection plate is a very different matter to what can end up being hundreds of pounds for spurious 'treatments'..if you google anything to do with cancer,for example, you will start getting bombarded by all manner of poisonous con artists deliberately targeting people who are sometimes prepared to try anything out fo desperation...i really cant understand why it can still be legal. | |||

"I wonder why the psychic TV channel needs a programme guide listing So people know what's on? Not everyone watching is a psychic" But they could use the force. Isn't that how Darth Vader knew what Luke was getting for his birthday, by feeling his presents? | |||

"They are liars at best, cheats and frauds at worse. x" No, at best they're deluded | |||

What worse is that people pay to speak to their deceased loved ones and the "psychic" goes along with it for money! No problems! Don't get me started on most fucking haunted...someone just make yvette fielding go away with the fairies | |||

"BS." . They have a British standard in faith healing | |||

"Psychics are no more deceptive and insidious than advertisers. They all prey on our insecurities, fragility or weakness to essentially sell us something we don't need. I'm not say what they do is right but it's not like they are the only group of people doing it." How so? Advertisers sell you a physical product? Do they say "buy this any your dead loved ones will speak to you" do they fuck Psychics prey on the weak minded, the vulnerable who would do anything to know that their deceased are in a better place. I can see this going all religiously but why the fuck would a omnipotent diety go, hmm all these african babies can die yet i'll let this one weirdo- (all psychics are weirdos in their own way) - have the gift to speak to the dead. Sorry everyone but this is a tad frustrating! In regards to reiki/yoga/even hymns, i do believe they can have a well being on people, as it all links to your frame of mind. Just think if you went to a church while depressed and heard hynns, they could possible bring a sense of futility while another person who has a postive relationship to hymns (church with grandma) could find that as a support. Okay i got a little off track lmao | |||
"I live in Glastonbury - just walk up the high street and see 57 varieties of BS. Most of it's harmless, a lot of it is expensive. My favourites are the ones who sit in the old bank, half way up the high st. on the left. They wear long robes and sit around with copper pyramids on their heads promoting, I dunno, long life, happiness and sharp razors... Forget what they're called but on their website all the prices are in $ and run into the 1,000s. Someone's making money out of the gullible. T'was ever thus. " Do they need a bearded lady ? | |||

It's why Apple make so much, because you are part of the cool crowd with their products. | |||

No...they sell a product, do you go to tesco and think wow what a amazing lifestyle for shopping here.... you need to stop watching mad men | |||

No, of course I don't think that but look at any advert, they make it seem as if when you buy a product there are certain benefits. Look at any alcohol advert, where people are good looking, well dressed and all smiling, usually with a 'enjoy with friends' type tag line. Yes they are trying to sell you the product, but they sell sell a set of emotions or feelings that you can achieve by having their product. | |||

Because you whole alcohol arguement comes from madmen.... Of course you want to show a product off, but you don't sell a idea. I get what you mean with the happy people but everyone knows the reality. It's not like white lightning ciders going to put a advert out showing the homeless buying their piss cheap ale... What we can both agree onis that fickle minded people get preyed upon.. and all psychics are those predators | |||

"It really is good mate, i put of watching it for years then gave it ago. we've went abit off topic here hahahaah" I might give it a go, if I can't trust random internet strangers who can I trust? Yeah, but everyone else seems to have lost interest in the thread so it's fine | |||
