Default Do you believe in Psychics?

Mumbo jumbo preying on the vulnerable, or valid part of our society?

Have you ever been to see one and did they ever tell you anything truly 'remarkable'.

phobia is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Re: Do you believe in Psychics?

Psychics, hypnotists and that lot... _all_ rubbish if you ask me.

Just my point of view but, you have to be pretty weak minded to fall for it.

I believe there are some who prey on the vulnerable but i also believe they have their place and hold some truth.
I have seen a psychic on two separate occassions on a one to one basis. One was rubbish and could relate to anyone. Second one was spot on. Knew stuff that noone else knew and i had only answered with yes or no or made no comment.
I have also been to a spiritualist church service on a few occassions. Again some of it mumbo jumbo but some of it may be not.
Amongst other stuff, one evening i went with a group of girls from work ( about a month before i went on my reccie trip) This psychic picked me straight out from the audience and told me that I would be travelling overseas in the near future, it was a long journey by air but i wasnt to go to far over land He kept stressing dont go too far by land. Said he could see a big wave like a tsunami, and made a joke about how i should cancel any holiday plans. Couple of days after i landed on the west coast of Australia a tsunami hit the east coast
I think like most things there are arguements for and against BUT i have seen it offer lots of support to some very vulnerable people and if that is the case that has got to be a postive thing hey? HOWEVR i would never pay more than a fiver to see one

A good friend of mine went to see one about 10 years ago.
She won't tell me what was said but she hasn't been the same since.
She has suffered with depression and I believe this was a contributing factor.
I think there are a lot of fraudsters out there who do a lot of damage.

I agree that for some people it can have a detrimental effect
