And you said nothing to any of these people to invite such reactions from them ?

Hell, I had someone asking for harm to be done to my wife on this topic.

Did you report it to the moderators ? I don't remember this.

Saru, I do not report a lot of things that should be reported. My point being, I get hit pretty hard for being " skeptical " on things, and I get " attacked " pretty hard also. I can handle it, it comes with the territory.

I have seen plenty of times, and I am sure you and some mods have also ( no offense to any skeptics ) " you are one of the fewer skeptics here that do not attack people ", and things like this...There are some that can be jerks, and have little to discuss, and there are many that do have civil discussions. I know for myself, I do not report things that others would, and I think this is how it is for most of us here that are " skeptical ", and actually discuss things civilly. We get a bad rap in my opinion.

Anyway, I will point you to just one example of what I mean, and I want nothing done about it, as I did not report it ( as far as I know ), and actually use it as a example of how far people will go if their faith is challenged.And no, I said nothing to invite that kind of reaction.

*snip*

After reading through to find that, I sure see more rude and short condescending replies thrown my way then anything. Either way, as said, it comes with the territory, and I am grateful we are allowed to contribute and be in discussions on this board,( skeptics )...Many paranormal sites do not allow this at all.

Most people have their own guardian angel. So you should probably tell your guardian (using your mind) to stop protect you and let the evil spirit approach you, and live at your place. Try to tell that out loud 3 times in the middle of the night.

You don't have a guardian angel, you can hire one from me for 100 dollars a month. It's true, I invented it.

It doesn't have to come with the territory, if you are polite and respectful others will respond in kind.

I actually think you should to re-read what was said there, I believe you've misinterpreted her comments/intentions.

I'm going to remove that link as I don't want this turning in to a witch hunt.

I try to be polite, it is when I am attacked, or talked down to, then I get aggressive. Not as aggressive as some, but yes, I am guilty.

I was re-reading that, I know what she was getting at, although I still think that is something that should not have been used as a " example ".  Thank you for removing the link, as both of us get along just fine, and have since then. I just wanted you to see it is not just one side that gets upset, or dis-respectful. I do believe ( I said believe, not know ) it seems when a persons faith  or belief is questioned, that is when there is more of a " attack " mode than anything. I see this a lot more then a skeptical person explaining the facts of their debate.

As said, I have, and still do get a lot of polite responses and replies. I do get more rude ones though as mentioned, even when I am being polite. This is why I say it comes with the territory.

Either way, there will all ways be " heated " arguments, some more then others. That is just human nature, some can have a easier time not getting their buttons pushed, or I should say, reacting to getting their buttons pushed then others.

By the way, nice to see you in a discussion

I agree, I think the concept could have been put forward a bit more tactfully even if it wasn't intended in the way I think you believed it to be.

This is totally off topic, but...

I sometimes feel like I'm feeding the paparazzi mentality when I click on a discussion just because I see that Saru posted something.




Okay, back to inviting ghosts and demons to your house.

Why on earth would you want to do something like that anyway?  LOL

No joke by the way.  If ghosts and demons were real (which I don't believe), I think the last thing I would want is to have them in my house.  My hat is off to you for the efforts, but damn you're crazy!

Sakari you need to make a bucket list of all the things you tried.

[Seeker79]

Hahaha even I have been cursed on this thread, the dude even followed me around on other threads threatening me. Modes nailed it, but it was sort of fun.  The most interesting ones are the ones that think I'm a devil consort and controlled and manipulated  by said demons. I suppose they believe this because I am spiritual but don't believe in the fear mongering.

I don't think your going to get pinned brother, I think you are almost out of things to try short of sacrificing animals or some garbage.

the best way is to draw a BIG pentacle on the floor, focus your negative energy on it, shout a high leveled summoning spell and step away from the pentacle. if you stay in the pentacl then you'll be obliterated by the energy

[De-Mo]

or you can do the spirit guide summoning but without doing the prayer of protection then let the demon in.
