I thought Houdini exposed all these frauds, but they still persist to scam grief stricken folks out of their money..................

Houdini, iirc, had a pact with his wife that whoever died first would contact the other.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

The best way to figure out how a radio works is to take it apart and look for the radio station studio inside...

Science!

These people have always existed. And suckers have always fallen for it. Yet we have “scientists” with no more success than mediums or witch doctors. We call them mental health practitioners.

At least mediums dont give people electrically ruined brains or give them drugs that turn them into prrmanently damaged homeless, or cause them to muder their families or coworkers.

I’ll take mediums any day over shrinks. Mediums dont pretend to be scientific.

Demons can take on various forms and voices. So many people and therefore generations are being fooled. https://www.gotquestions.org/what-is-a-medium.html

After the Civil War there were huge numbers of people who needed to be somehow consoled. These frauds understood the need and provided a service of sorts. It was fake but it no doubt gave a modicum of peace to some.

Psychics arguing:

“I saw it first!”
“No, I saw it first!”
“I saw it before you did!”
“I saw it way before you!”...................................
