Mistydawn Posted February 9, 2011 #3 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Quote from article: "In response they cast spells on the country's president and government." .... Hahahaha! Still, if everyone else pays taxes, I don't see why they shouldn't have to also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert1 Posted February 9, 2011 #4 Share Posted February 9, 2011 (edited) Although I think they should pay their taxes like everyone else, I think casting spells on their president and government is just too funny for words.

d e v i c e Posted February 11, 2011 #5 Share Posted February 11, 2011 You can't throw them in jail for getting it wrong. That would be like throwing the weatherman in jail for getting it wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angi chiesa Posted February 11, 2011 #6 Share Posted February 11, 2011 They take your money and predict your future. If they make up some nonsense which you beleive to be true,then at the very least you should get your money back. If you put your life savings on the wrong horse prediction ..........

numagirl22 Posted February 11, 2011 #7 Share Posted February 11, 2011 *facepalms* well, at least you've put the whole 'burning at the stake' thing behind you, but good goddess! show me a law that says we have to be right 100% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you put your life savings on the wrong horse prediction .......... those who pay for predictions are taking a gamble, and they ought to know that. it's no one's fault but their own if they waste their money. that's like saying a casino ought to give you your money back if you don't win.

Now I find this extremely funny. It was supposed to warm up and it's 5F outside. Go to jail, go directly to jail. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

_MagixX_ Posted February 12, 2011 #17 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Just means they'll get more and more vague with their prophecies. That's a good point...they will be afraid to go out on a limb with any impressions they get. And once the predictions start to become more and more vague- it will be a mess trying to prove whether or not they are accurate...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarChild 83 Posted February 13, 2011 #20 Share Posted February 13, 2011 so then we should definitely hold all weather men accountable for giving inaccurate forecasts too. a hefty fine for not telling me i need to bring a rain coat to work.

There's predicting the weather, and then there's telling people where to place bets and how to live their life and getting paid for it. Besides, weathermen have a better hit rate than these supposed precogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at it this way. Without weathermen we'd never know when to bring a raincoat. Now we know sometimes, and sometimes we find ourselves sweating in our raincoat because a 'sudden change' came in.

MoonBaby Posted February 18, 2011 #24 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Is this some way for the government to test the 'accuracy' of... of... ummmm... how do I put it...? I don't know, a way for government to test the accuracy of 'sorcery'? How are fortune tellers going to cover their butts in that situation?
