Able2know is a rare medium well done. I stole this from a Public Television fund drive.

Talking to dead people (or demons) is not surprising or difficult at all. It is getting them to respond that is the tricky bit.

how stupid is the concept that somebody can actually talk to a dead person!?

it is mostly psychology mixed with a bit of drama and being able to read signs our bodies make.

yes, there are some people who are genuinely in contact with the afterlife, but it is not the people they contact, but demons that immitate the person who is supposedly talking.

views?


My mother feels the same way you do. She believes in all that crap about souls and spirits going to heaven or hell, but she thinks mediums are dabbling in the occult.

You guys are a freakin' riot!

it is a dangerous thing to deny the existence of demons, as the devils greatest achievement would be to convince you he doesn't exist.


Anyway, you can't prove a negative.

I can top that.

My greatest achievement; I have convinced the Devil that I don't exist. He hasn't bothered me since.

You know, my ex-girlfriend used to be a medium.

But now, I hear she's an extra-large.





It's OK....I've used that one before, and nobody laughed then, either.

so you are willing to believe in demons but the thought of someone speaking to the dead is ridiculous to you??


Rockpie, I think you need to think a bit more about what you believe. Why is it more plausible that what mediums hear are demons and not spirits?

Have you ever seen a medium work? I have. I went to a spiritualist church once and it wasn't anything special. The spirits were talking crap, one guy got told by his late wife to change the telephone supplier. Most of the spirits just sent their love. Why would a demon send it's love? And why the hell would a demon want you to to change your telephone supplier?

I seriously wish to know why you think that 'demons' are a better explanation.

Well, a careful reading of the bible would show there is no consciousness after death and that spirits do exist. So when you think you are talking to your great uncle, you are probably talking to one who knew him well.

Shouldn't the thread title be "Media are jokes"?

Yup, those were my two choices. I can't decide between the two, they're both just so likely.

Rosbourne,

That's what "faith" is for, brother. To solve those tricky questions without having to think too much.

Smile

So here's a person of faith trying to figure this out...

"Hmmm, let's see here, that crazy looking medium who makes money from spinning a good yarn and mumbling to herself, is either lying to me about what she's doing, OR she's really talking to demons. Which could it be? Hmmmmmmmmmm that's a tough one.

But I have faith that she's talking to demons because I want to believe in demons because what else am I going to blame my own weird-ass behavior on. Yeh, demons. Definitely demons."

Everyone here is assuming that demons don't know anything about telephone suppliers.

Why wouldn't demons be a good source of information on this topic?

I once went to an elderly medium who told me that if I crossed her palm with silver, she would reveal all.

I only gave her ten cents and pleaded with her to just remove her coat.

That one cracked me up, Boss.

I not only suspect that demons know a great deal about telephone service providers, i rather suspect that all of these services are owned by demons, and that their customer service call centers are staffed by demons.

Ever try to get a bill straightened out, or terminate your service with them?

Take the word 'telephone' out of your rant, Set, and apply it to anyone with a recurring bill for 'service', especially one of those 'convenient auto pay' features.

i remember watching a very thought provoking episode of South Park in which stan was trying to prove to kyle that mediums like John Edward are frauds. It really changed my way of thinking!!! Very Happy

Yes, I use South Park to formulate my views of the world too.
