Yup.

In a weird way all of this reminds me of psychics/fortune readers and such.

You pay them, generally knowing it is false...but can you demand your money back and claim it is a con when your future doesnt turn out to be as bright as they said it was going to be? Of course not. You knew at the time that it was chance to be a load of BS

Kinda like the response that Steve had to his offer to "lay my hands on your stumps"!

Very true Vicky thats why most psychics and fortune tellers have a disclaimer stating its for entertainment purposes only, really if you pay for things like that you are paying for the persons time.

Just like faith/spiritual healers shouldnt tell you they can definately cure or heal you, nor should they advise you not to seek or continue treatment from qualified medical sources. Though occasionally some do.
