and then his family sues for millions? not that I know anything about the subject

there are countless ... ( 1 month ago by waldoman7)

there are countless fakes but psychics are real. I can't imagine deliberately predicting someone's future or performing surgery or any of the crazy nonsense you usually hear, but I have seen brief glimpses of the future on countless occasions and can sense the presence of other people.

too true, too true. ... ( 1 month ago by llronald121)

too true, too true. In fact I'm psychic and I see...you...and...you're gay and like anime.

there is nothing ... ( 1 month ago by waldoman7)

there is nothing wrong with liking anime. In japan adults watch it as much as kids. What's wrong is judging people for their interests. It's junior high style immaturity. There is also nothing wrong with being gay, though I am not even slightly gay myself. I admit a lot of gays are weird but you can't judge them all by what you see on TV. Is anal sex gross? heck yeah, but if you think about it so is vaginal sex. Only seems different to you because of hormones.

waldoman. Of course ... ( 1 month ago by winterstellar)

waldoman. Of course you are aware that The James Randi Foundation will pay anyone 1 million dollars who can prove the existence of "psychic abilities" of any kind? One million for any evidence, too bad it's all nothing but fantasies of you believers', this "psychic" business? A million would be kinda' OK, no? Haha.

The terms, the ... ( 1 month ago by winterstellar)

The terms, the condititions are quite simple, I think. You just need to prove a psychic ability or power or whatever in a controlled environment, in a genuine experiment. So that should be easy, no? If it had existed, I mean? :)

My abilities are no ... ( 1 month ago by waldoman7)

My abilities are no fantasy. I had no desire for them and in many ways they are a curse, but they exist regardless. I'm certainly a skeptic by nature and if I didn't have psychic ability I'd probably never believe in it. I had no idea about the million. It's certainly interesting. It would be difficult to clearly prove psychic ability in a controlled environment, but not impossible. The problem is that I can't make it work on demand. Guess they could keep cameras on me during a storm.

Sometimes I sense ... ( 1 month ago by waldoman7)

Sometimes I sense the lightning a few seconds before it happens. The other problem would be that they decide what's proof and what's not. The lightning thing could be explained by something other than psychic ability after all. Maybe I'm somehow sensitive to the electricity in my environment and not actually predicting the future. If the lightning was the only psychic thing I did then I would probably not think it psychic ability.

The foundation now ... ( 1 month ago by waldoman7)

The foundation now requires a demonstrated media profile as well as the support from some member of the academic community before it will discuss the challenge with claimants. - Wikipedia Just looked that up. It sort of disqualifies me.

Well, tell the ... ( 1 month ago by winterstellar)

Well, tell the media about your "supernatural powers" first, then.. And THEN you can let the James Randi Foundation show everybody that you don't have them after all.. Haha.
But anyway, other sceptics have other prizes, the Randi prize is just the most famous. I can look into that for you, see if I find some of the others. Anyway, you'll never win anything because the supernatural does not exist. :)

Why must you label ... ( 1 month ago by waldoman7)

Why must you label it as supernatural? I do believe in souls and perhaps some sort of god, but not magic or the like and I don't see this as supernatural in any way. Psychic power does not come from the soul but from the physical brain. One day science will explain all this.

waldoman. Sorry, ... ( 1 month ago by winterstellar)

waldoman. Sorry, but there is nothing to explain. There are no "mysterious powers" out there that only you ignorant and superstitious people happen to know about, haha. You have the 1 million dollar challenge from The James Randi Foundation, but you can have 100 million from me if you ever prove any "psychic abilities"..haha! Of course I don't have the money, but we could first set up a legally binding contract so I'd have to get it somehow..haha, "Santa" or "psychics" will not suddently be true

A list of things ... ( 1 month ago by winterstellar)

A list of things that are bogus bullshit: Astrology, tarot, telepathy, faith-healing, homeopathy, aliens and flying saucers, ghosts, angels, gods, demons, witches, santa clauses, elves, fairies..prove that any of that works/exists, haha. It doesn't work, so you cant. In the universe we have the strong and the weak nuclear force, electro-magnetism and gravity. No "psychic force", "Sky-Daddy force", "healing santa claus ghost homeopathy"-force, no crap like that at all. Sorry.. :)

But I apologize for ... ( 1 month ago by winterstellar)

But I apologize for my language there and my ridicule of believers. That isn't right of me, and I won't do it again. Science, scientific results from studies of these things is what one should use, and of course reason/common-sense, not ridiculing or name-calling. :)

Obelisk. No, I wont do that either in the future. I get these comments whenever I suggest that The Toothfairy or The EasterBunny don't exist either, so I must find new examples, it seems. :)

Close minded and hateful would seem to describe you though

Wow. what an amazing ability, being able to tell when lightning is about to strike. Other people can do that, they are called weathermen/women. Funny how you don't claim psychic abilities for anything that can be properly tested, like predicting what card somebody is holding face back to you.
