sees Posted September 28, 2017 #3 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Oh dear...how easy it is to expose the fake ones! Breaking news....just because there are fake psychics doesn't discredit/invalidate the real ability of psychic phenomenon which covers a vast field i.e. not just prediction. One day the outdated scientific dogma of reductive materialism might catch up! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one day you kooks will comprehend why the scientific method exists. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XenoFish Posted September 28, 2017 #6 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I made it to 1:40 in the first view before the cringe nearly killed me. Psychic = Professional guesser. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlitterRose Posted September 28, 2017 #7 Share Posted September 28, 2017 The worst part is that a lot of the time these people prey on the elderly and grieving, people who have loved ones missing, etc. And they compound already horrible life events by fleecing people of their money. A lot of the time those people are on fixed incomes. It's unforgivable. That said, I've been surprised at the venom hurled at me for just pulling a Tarot card for people who ask for a reading on here. It's not like I'm claiming to be psychic. Tarot is just a divination method, and most of the time people are just curious to see what card gets pulled for them. The cards already have meanings attached to them, so it's not like it's just made up by me. I have nothing to do with it other than shuffling the deck, cutting it, and turning over the top card. I've always said that no one has to subscribe to Tarot, and if they don't, I won't pick a card for them. But time and time again, I see people infiltrate the reading area to just go after anyone in it. And with malice like they have an axe to grind. No one's charging any money here, and no one is being taken advantage of. It's fine to be skeptical, but save the venom for those who deserve it. There are plenty of deserving people. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XenoFish Posted September 28, 2017 #8 Share Posted September 28, 2017 With tarot (any form of cartomancy) and astrology should be done just for fun. Not taken serious. Self-proclaimed "psychics" are just predators hunting on the weak minded. It's sickening. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes currently impossible due to the inappropriate and limitations of existing old scientific methods available with reductive materialism. Thankfully quantum physics is more cutting edge, much more up to speed and may be leading the way towards future verification.

Oh yes, it seems to be a bit of a fad to chuck the term 'quantum' into the mix. I wouldn't hold your breath though!

I didn't say they are currently dealing with them - just that they are probably more likely to establish validation at some point. The point of my link being that, since quantum physics has been ignorantly derided, I wanted to provide some educative info on them.
