Anyone who listens to these frauds, especially on a television program, deserves all the grief they get.

There is no such thing as a psychic , they are as fake as gypsy fortune tellers or Democrat conservative politicians.

Anyone who listens to either is a fool.

Psychic Sylvia Browne, who has made a career of televised psychic readings

They misspelled 'Psychotic'.

Journalists have become increasingly unable to spell, lately.

She should be sued royally for “fraud”. Then maybe she’d get a real job.

A proposed advertisement:

A PSYCHIC predicts a binary outcome (on/off, alive/dead, male/female, etc.) The fee is $1,000 per prediction. If wrong, all your money back.

It would be a nice racket this way :-)

A phoney psychic on the “Montel Williams Show?” Sounds almost akin to listening to Dick Morris and Karl Rove make election predictions on FoxNews last year.

Ms. Browne should be thankful that she does not live in Old Testament Israel. The penalty for false prophecy was death by stoning, as was witchcraft and ‘soothsaying’.

I read about this guy who bought one of those tabloids with psychic predictions for the year ahead. The most “renowned psychics” in the world (Jeane Dixon was one of them, as I recall,) predicted what would happen in the upcoming year. The guy kept his issue and then checked it a year later to see if any of the predictions had come true. Not one had. And these were famous psychics, not people who sit in a tent at the county fair.

I tried the same thing myself with a tabloid astrological prediction issue. Not one thing the “renowned astrologers” predicted came true.

Now, I bet if Freepers sat around and made predictions of what might happen in the coming year, we’d get some stuff right, either from common sense or just dumb luck. But “renowned psychics and astrologers” can’t predict a danged thing.

Psychic Sylvia Browne, who has made a career of televised psychic readings, told Louwanna Miller on a 2004 episode of the show that her daughter was dead, causing Miller to break down in tears on the show's set.

In 2003, Browne incorrectly told the parents of missing teen Shawn Hornbeck that their son was dead, and his body could be found somewhere near "two jagged boulders," according to her premonition.

She just meant figuratively dead.

And the "two jagged boulders" meant four years. A regular boulder would be a year, but a jagged boulder - TWO years.

So she was saying he was figuratively dead, but would be found alive after four years.

100% accurate.

Montel Williams is as much a fraud as Sylvia Browne. I remember him hawking Obama coins that were pictures of Obama taped to quarters or half-dollars.

I just want to know when it's going to be safe to go to the Cayman Islands. Or buy a Drake's coffee cake.
