I saw a bit of his Comedy Roadshow tonight and he hit the nail right on the head about Mediums/Pyschics blah de blah

IF a real person who had "passed on" was connecting with said medium, why, being their only chance to communicate, do they not say "My full name is ****** ********* and I am related to ****** ******* and wish to speak to them" ??

Not "I'm just throwing you a D - Guess who????"

He was really good,I thought ironically as well as it being comedy how cleverly he exposed the absurdity of such a thing happening.

Really good, really funny and I was watching with other Students and one of them who had a sort of belief in it,said she'd never thought of that,she is very sceptical now of it today though.

It's the dolts in the audience who 'give out a snippet' of info: the medium rewords what they have offered up as info: and the idiots sit there, gobsmacked, welling up and crying: thinking it's all true.

There are some seriously niave people out there..... I think collectively known as Mugs. !!

Medium: "I see he passed away with problems...with his heart?".


Mug: "Errhh, no but he have emphysema, really bad"

Medium: "yes, he's telling me he had lung problems,...that's why he
was showing me his upper body"...


Mug: OH YES... it is uncle Bobby....OMG ... *sobs*

Honest to god..... how thick can some people really be!! How do they get by in life!!

[Kerry]

"Oh don't cry love... sorry, what's your name? Carol - thankyou Carol"

"Yes, oh thankyou so much"

20 minutes later

"I'm getting a message for a Carol coming through........"

[Patrick]

Lucky for me, I know a real - full proof - ******ing hardcore Medium.

[Pyramid*]

Medium: There's a spirit of a man, fond of his dog: is it you love

Mug: Old cousin used to have a dog

Medium: was it white, have white on it's coat?

Mug: I dont think so, I think it was all black

Medium: he's showing me a dog he loved, had a bit of white on its belly

Mug: Oh that might be right enough, Jack used to love tickling the dogs belly...


and so it goes on..

I was once at a friends house and they had a psychic coming for a demonstration, there were only about 20 of us there all students,she said I have a man coming through and his spirit is very strong, he may have not long crossed over or may have been on the other side a long time. It seems he has a connection with someone here,he's maybe their Father, Grandfather,Great Grandfather Uncle or someone they knew as Uncle,may even be an older Brother.

I was near choking trying not to laugh or blurt out ''what absolute nonsense''.

Years ago, my mum wanted one to come to the house - claimed to be both a fortune teller as well as a medium. (I know, I know).... she didn't arrive due to her car breaking down. Rearranged the date.

Then proceeded to tell me about my children. I have none.

Mentioned about me having just moved house. I hadn't, and still haven't.

Said my friend was pregnant. She'd had a hysterectomy.

Claimed my father had problems with his car (saw him driving into the driveway in an 8 year old car.... every likely hood an 8 yr old car would have 'something' needing attended to).

You get the drift....... £40 a pop as well......

[Kerry]

A lot of my family believe in it and I admit in the past I've been taken in. When you lose loved ones I think it's very easy to fall into the trap. But it's exactly that. A trap that they prey on. Makes you sick

Wow she was good wasn't she.

Surely if you had such a gift you'd give it freely. Not for £40 an hour or whatever

It's like everything else in life Kerry.... people learn from their mistakes: but yes, they do pray on the very vulnerable at times.

I'll have you know she was first rate..... a first rate con-merchant!

Absolutely.

[Kerry]

Can remember watching a Louis Theroux documentory 'outing' them. Well, more "Spiritualists" and "Healers" with the odd medium thrown in

Funnily enough, he was slung out when he questioned them

[Crimson Dynamo]

People of low intelligence buy that sh it
