The dead know nothing of this world.

She said: “It’s someone’s opinion."

Bull - the woman either was alive and sitting in the audience or she wasn't. That's a question of fact, not opinion.

James Randi, though an atheist, gave a scathing and humorous TED talk on psychics and other scams. He alluded to Sylvia Brown, one of his targets of ridicule, dismissing him as “godless”. Worth watching.

One time on a long drive on a lonesome highway at night in Nevada, I was bored and listening to a talk radio show that happened to have a psychic on taking calls.

A woman called in and was upset about what she feared were ghosts in her house. She didn’t use those exact words but spoke instead of noises coming from “the foundations” — and she clearly meant her house foundations.

The “psychic” got it completely wrong and started long-distance-diagnosing the caller’s PSYCHIC foundations and went on a long ramble that the host himself had to interrupt with a politely embarrassed-for-her sake explanation: “No, I think the caller is talking about her house foundations...”

It was a long time ago (though I still remember LMAO) and I don’t remember what the “psychic” said but if there ever was a Gilda Radner Nevermind moment that was it.

I’ve always wanted to go to one of those charlatans and do something like that on purpose!

Psychics who sell their services prove, by that try act, that they aren’t psychic. After al, if they were they’d have gotten rich on the stock market or in Vegas, and not have to sell their services.

Mediums are fakes. I have particular contempt for Theresa Caputo.

Something similar happened to me.

I had some professional dealings with a woman. After a few months went by she mentioned that she was an Indian medicine woman, a Reiki master, and a medium. To drum up business she told me that she had a message for me from my brother beyond the grave. I told her that usually when my brother wants to send me a message he either calls or emails; since he isn’t DEAD we don’t have to conduct a seance.
