OK, so I didn't make my point very well......

So I'll just have another go.

A true scientist (having formed a hypothesis regarding a particular question), goes out and gathers information on the topic, he does ”research”, he does not sit and wait for the research (or “proof”) to come to him of it’s own volition – that is not how science works.

I offered a list of names in my reply to DC of people who PROVED beyond any hint of doubt that “supernatural” things exist, and can be demonstrated and repeated under absolutely controlled conditions. One of the names is Jack Webber.

Have a look, but not just at this one site, if you can, get hold of the book written by Harry Edwards called “The Mediumship of Jack Webber”. The photographs in the book are unarguable.

And, another name on my list – Arigo – ever heard of him? Get the book called “Surgeon of the Rusty Knife”, also contains amazing photos.

The ”proof” you seek has been out there for many, many years, but you have to seek it. You can’t sit there and say bring me the proof. We have. The books have been there for the taking. But (as happened here), when somebody says “hey, go look at these people” the sceptic says, “bring me the proof”. I DID!!!! Did you Google even ONE of the names I listed? One? None?

To me the cartoon caricature of the classic Sceptic is some-one with their hands clasped firmly over their eyes saying “show me, show me”.

What of my claims about identifying dead relatives and capsicum allergies? No comment there. Why not? I’m either telling the truth, or I’m lying. What do you think?

All your response focused on was YOUR perspective on what I said, how it related to you. Your perspective doesn’t really matter, neither does mine – as it never can in science. Just the facts.

I gave you a set of datum to go and look at and you chose to ignore the datum and give us your opinions. Opinions are irrelevant in true science.

You see the punch line is, that I’m a sceptic. I’m clairvoyant, I’m a Spiritual healer, but I’m a sceptic. Not a capital “S” Sceptic, like yourself, but a person who by nature will not take anything as true until proven. But with the research I’ve done, and what I have seen with my own two eyes, I know that things like clairvoyance exist, because I got off my butt and went to a lot of trouble look for the facts.

You can’t go back to the boring old chant “all you have to do is prove it to me and I’ll believe it”, because you did what every Sceptic always does. I GAVE you all the proof necessary, you ignored it completely and said “all you have to do is prove it to me and I’ll believe it”……..
