Re: Have you ever visited a Psychic?
I've never visited a psychic. I can say this with absolute certainty because there aren't any.I do believe though that clever, unscrupulous people can get gullible people to believe absolutely anything, and earn good money for it in the process.

These are the basic beliefs of most people. They are impossible to prove scientifically or logically. There are all complete bunkum.
...Until you experience them for yourself.
Then you find yourself in a dilemma. You know they really do exist. You are unable to convince others, and you feel embarrassed even to talk about them..
This is often very true H.
Imagine how a Victorian man would feel if he saw a television, or a mobile 'phone, or a jet fighter. He would be branded as some type of weirdo - yet he would know.
Once again I agree.
Perhaps one day, there will be scientific instruments that prove beyond a shadow of doubt that there are such things out there. Until then, the wonderful powers of the brain, both animal and human, continue to 'detect' something....
I said almost exactly the same thing in another post recently H.
Meanwhile, the charlatans will continue to exploit the weak.

Re: Have you ever visited a Psychic?
Has anyone heard of Sylvia Browne? She's from the U.S., well she died not long ago but I did read her book All Pets Go To Heaven.It also talked a lot about people & levels of dimensions. I so want to believe everything in her book but again, there she was, all dolled up & expensive looking, sigh.....

Perhaps you're right Tachyon, maybe they weren't 'supernatural' but likewise, maybe they were! I guess you'll never know . . .

Re: Have you ever visited a Psychic?
I never used the word 'supernatural' in my reply, Tach. I was trying to say that the unusual experiences we probably all have are beyond our understanding. On several occasions, I have been aware of friends and relatives passing over before somebody else told me. One in particular was of a relative who I hadn't met for well over 50 years, yet I 'knew' the day she had died.This doesn't mean that I believe in ghosts or spirits floating around in another dimension. I just don't understand it. I also doubt that I could convince you; you would probably put it down to a coincidence, or suggest that I had subconsciously overheard a conversation. Likewise, you would be unable to persuade me it didn't happen.
Nobody really understands how electricity works, even physicists and scientists, yet we all use it. Nobody really knows how aspirin works, yet mankind has used it for a thousand years.
Sometimes, it is better just to ignore how things work, and use them anyway.
