...I know of quite a well known physic who passed quite recently and wow at how many attended the funeral..(...this was pre Covid times..)...and how much they were respected and loved ...so many people have great belief in them...I guess it’s based on the same thing, though..we can’t generalise because some will ‘throw out’ as you say but that doesn’t for me dismiss something that they may be able to ‘harness’ in a way that most people can’t...

Yeah that’s true, I’ve been to see psychic Sally twice, the first time she was amazing, the second time, she was bunk and didn’t get anything right, there are ones out there that can be accurate and give great readings for sure, but it’s basically the bad ones and conpeople that give them a bad name

I'm not mocking, the vast majority of supernatural encounters with voices or a visual component are schizophrenia, and slow-leak carbon monoxide has been found to be responsible for the hallucinations associated with "supernatural encounters" on several occasions. It can also cause memory loss and paranoia.

Do you believe in ghosts/ghost experiences/spooky stories etc...
 

Well just about every psychic have been caught cheating on loads of occasions .. just open up YouTube and search their name and cheating / debunking to see the clips ..


James Randi is the guy to research if anyone is interested in all the cheats and scams .. he’s the guy who showed that Uri Gellar was a cheat - LIVE in American telly

Well yes that's because psychic powers aren't real, so the only difference between a psychic who hasn't been caught cheating and a psychic who has been caught cheating, is that the one who hasn't is better at cheating...

Don't get me wrong a lot of it is quite impressive and a lot of fun, but it's the same as any magician... it's psychological illusions and purely for entertainment. For me, as with magicians, the fun is in trying to figure out how the "trick" is done.

Sorry Mr ‘two dimensions’

They get thousands ( even millions ) out of gullible/ susceptible / vulnerable people though .. that’s the tragedy

..yeah it’s always the ‘bad’ in everything that have the greatest voice to form opinions on the overall, you know..I went to a clairvoyant when I was younger...it was not something I intended to do, more an ‘accidental or coincidence’, type thing...I don’t know how to explain it....but wow, it was just unbelievable in my own one personal experience...nothing at all that could have possibly just ‘thrown out there’, you know...

Multi-dimensional theory is based in very real science :shrug:. Someone's nan claiming to be having a chat with your great uncle from World War 2 is ITV2 afternoon telly.

You know what, for someone that claims to want to be able to have free, open and amicable debates, you spend a lot of your time mocking and taking down to people for beliefs and opinions that don’t align with yours

My sister went to one recently and she was given a recording of it and honestly, the things the woman came out with, you wouldn’t be able to just pull from thin air, all she had was her first name and it was amazing, every now and then you get one that just blows you away and yes, it’s not exactly life changing, but at least it’s extremely comforting

just did some research prior...

I really don't believe in any of this stuff but I did go to a psychic years ago and one thing she said to me was so specific, down to actual names, I still can't figure it out. She got a lot wrong as well but this one thing she got right was really bizarre and pretty creepy tbh

Yeah it’s bizarre, this one got names right, obscure nicknames, health situations, family relationships, she even got details about items passed down after someone died right and it was just amazing, 60 quid a pop mind but, she was easily the best we’ve heard of

...this is what I mean...it was so creepy that I never went to one again but I’m always interested in the experiences of others because I can’t be sceptical either...(...not of all, anyway...)...mine didn’t get anything wrong because she didn’t give anything general, everything was specific and everything either was or became correct and as she said...and she asked me nothing at all...all she asked me was to shuffle some cards...just playing cards, not Tarot...

...open mind, really...enough to make me never want to see a clairvoyant again...

I've never been to a psychic or clarvoyant. Liam.

Your accounts are really fascinating.
As I said my mind was opened to things in my late teens.
I wouldn't choose to even as I entered my teens mock others experiences.

Sometimes I think those who dismiss it and all others experiences, possibly have a fear of it actually being real.

Anyone having experiences of what even science and scientists cannot explain.

Chemicals in the brain as someone's dying, well not all have that happen anyway
Then in comes to the madness element of schizophrenia or other mental disorders being cited as reasoning by sceptics.

With not a hint of any mental imbalance whatsoever of those who have had experiences.

I think this a fascinating subject.
Even moreso since I opened up my own mind more and listened to others.
After the odd and unexplained things I've come across personally.

Thank you for sharing your feelings and touching on your experiences.
Full respect to you from myself.

I believe in residual energies

Well I suppose it depends on your definition of "alien" but "no evidence"?

Oh come on there hasn’t been one even half decent photo or video of a ghost or UFO or whatever ... even though just about every human walking the planet now have a quality camera on their person .

There’s a fund of ONE MILLION DOLLARS available in the USA ( it’s been on offer for 25 years ) .. for anyone who can prove - in scientific conditions - the existence of anything paranormal, ghostly , UFOs , levitation, mind reading , telekinesis etc

It’s never had to pay out a single penny / cent .

I said "alien" as in life on other planets.

Not really in the same realm as telekinesis and ghosts.

This really.

I’ve had a couple of “spooky experiences” (one more comforting than spooky actually, made me cry) But I wouldn’t say I believe in “ghosts” exactly, just that energy can sort of stay around a place.

I once had an EXTREMELY accurate and spooky reading from a medium once though. Was scary - names, descriptions, jobs, family nicknames that nobody else would know etc.
