  • I have just been told that skeptic e-groups are advising their members not to watch this video - just in case it confuses them - Wow... this is very open minded of them!!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @Smithpolly I think it is an unlikely thing to do too - but it has been reported to me that they have - very silly of them don't you think - shows ajenda

  • @shambhallah If it happened, which as I said, I find somewhat unlikely, it wouldn't just be silly, it would be bizarre. What possible agenda do you think they could they have?

  • I think you should define what "psychic" abilities even are first. As far as I know it's the ability to see the past/future, ability to communicate to the decease and the likes. Not sure how does connecting device to your brain qualify.

    Also, you can't use these age old fallacies like "psychics can't explain some of the phenomenon out ther yet, therefore psyhic abilities must exist".

  • @ModeLTU This was my thought as well, This is the logical fallacy "argument from ignorance". The devices measure electrical activity in the brain and tries to translate it into commands, nothing to do with psychic ability.

  • @Jazealight Wow! Then you must know something that the scientist don't ! - That statement assumes that you "know" what energy psychic abilities arise from....Obviously you dont know about the studies that monitor the electrical activity in the brain when individuals are performing psychic abilities - You see this is the problem... with out knowing what psychic abilities are skeptics attack with twisted logic ... Thank you for being an excellent example of you point again

  • @Jazealight It is the studies that they have done on psychic brain wave activity that lead to this development

  • @ModeLTU In my book "Seven Psychic Secrets" I go into a lot of the studies and the best traditional culture and scientific explanations we have so far - As science evolves the studies are evolving new explanations - Science seeks to explain phenomena  - not say they cant see it - that is ignorance

  • An argument from ignorance, an argument from authority and presenting a straw man of the Skeptical community gives no credibility to the argument for Psychic ability. Not understanding dark mater does not mean psychic ability exists. A device that measures electrical currents in the brain has no link to psychic ability. The James Randy institute offers a $1m reward for a display of psychic ability, hundreds of attempts with both sides in agreement of the criteria has netted zero results.

  • @Jazealight You cannot understand the science behind a phenomona that you refuse to examine properly - James Randy"s cockamay tests are not scientific MANY scientific studies have proved in the affirmative for psychic abilities and Randy has refused to pay the scientists - James Randy is a fraud and will never pay out the money -

  • @shambhallah Your right James Randi uses very simple test, he doesn't need to uses science to debunk individuals. If James Randi was a fraud Im sure you would have provided the evidence. The scientific process is very rigorous and saying that this process needs to be changed before an effect is seen only strengthens the non-existence of psychic ability. Your right you can cherry pick small un-blind studies that show a small effect, once larger blind studies are conducted the effect is gone.

  • @Jazealight Thank you for agreeing with me - I have quoted the studies and the scientists in this video - Major studies at Cambridge and other major uni's with reputable scientists even a nobel prize winner - now be brave and look them up!

  • Dr Brian Josephson is really interesting. He has achieved a lot in his field of super conductivity. However there seems to be a pattern when he moves out of his field. He has no support in his theories dealing with quantum mechanics and dark matter because he is basing it on his own conjecture. He has no support and the evidence contradicts his thoughts on water memory. He also supports E-cat or cold fusion machine another controversial item that has produced zero evidence.

  • @shambhallah I did a search on the university data base and found no results for the other three scientists you mention. It is great that you are doing your research, most are fundamentalist psychics don’t want to make sure their beliefs are well grounded. To get a clearer picture of the truth, we have to go with the scientific community as a whole. Einstein believed in a static universe but the scientific community believed it to be expanding. We know that the community was correct.

  • @shambhallah Studies Performed by the "Society for Psychical Research" in Cambridge has debunked many psychic and it does not support Psychic ability at all.

  • @Jazealight Harry Houdini who founded the skeptical society had to pay it out to a woman called Maggery who the Scientific American board tested - Houdini was also found guilty of fraud in his attempt to disprove Maggery - Randy wants to conduct his supposed tests not scientific testing.

  • @shambhallah If you look at this case Houdini Debunked Maggery. He even re-enacted her her abilities on stage to prove his point. Because she had political connections and may have been having inappropriate relations with one of the committee members gives no strength to your argument. How can you call James Randy's test fraudulent when everyone that participates has agreed that the test is fare before they proceed.

  • @Jazealight Yes You are right HArry Houdini fraudlently tried to dis credit Maggery ans was charged with fraud - She was a doctors wife no political connections - highlights the point that skeptics need to do their research better

  • @shambhallah.NewYork Times. Quote from Houdini: I detected her in fraud at every sitting I attended. I will admit that her tricks were new and clever; I have since reproduced them before audiences(), and not one of those serving as committeemen has detected the method employed until divulged to them after removal of the blindfold, which served them in lieu of darkness. The demonstrations have been in full light, that the audience might appreciate the deception to the limit.

  • @Jazealight - Not the stupid TV stunts - Hundreds of successful true scientific experiments proving in favour of psychic abilities - HE REFUSES TO PAY THEM... That makes James Randi the fraud -

  • @Oldhamegg what do u got to say about nostradamus? He predicted tons of things that happened including 9/11 the election of some of our presidents, the earthquake in california and japan, and many wars in the past. It takes psychic ability to predict the future. Also psychic ability is a very general word, anything unexplainable by science is claimed some sort of a psychic ability , or a supernatural ability. Qi gong for example cant be proven by current science, but it has been proven that a s

  • @LoveSeeker81392 Yes... Good example.Nostradamus was a doctor who was nearly arrested by the skeptics of his day for preaching the ancient Pagan Pythagorean practice of hygiene when he was treating the black plague -that resulted when the skeptics mass slaughtered the mid wives and village wise women who tried to tell the new schools of medicine how important cleanliness was.

    "How can anything you cant see kill you? How supersticous!"... was the argument of the skeptics of the day.

  • @shambhallah Nostradamus has never predicted any event, all rationalization has been post-hoc. And you miss quoted religious leaders as Skeptics. Again with the straw man.

  • Thank you for proving my point - You are very arrogant -And you do not have enough information to make these comments - Shooting your mouth off with out correct facts makes you look foolsih not superior

    For your own sake, please get your facts straight - see details on Galilieo below and check out the studies on psychics by the scientists sited in this video - then you will be qualified to make a comment - even though it will probably still be self-defensive and arrogant

  • Hilarious. A "Psychic" talking about science.  There is no scientific study that has ever proved psychic ability. Ever. "Psychics" need medical attention, full stop. btw your examples have no merit. i.e. Galileo was not a psychic he was a scientists who was judged by a bunch of superstition believing hierarchy of the time. The psychics of the day if you will. You think throwing a ball through a hoop is a result of psychic ability? delusional people like you need immediate help.

  • Respond to this video... Galileo Galilei 1] commonly known as Galileo, was an Italian physicist, mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher - Not a scientist - His official position was philosopher to the Grand Duke of Tuscany - Like Newton he wrote more books on philosopy and theology than on Mathematics - he published many psychic predictions based on sunspots - he was the guru of psychics in his day - but thank you for proving my point abut how uninformed skeptics are

  • @oldhamegg Thank you for proving my point - You are very arrogant -And you do not have enough information to make these comments - Shooting your mouth off with out correct facts makes you look foolsih not superior

    For your own sake, please get your facts straight - see details on Galilieo below and check out the studies on psychics by the scientists sited in this video - then you will be qualified to make a comment - even though it will probably still be self-defensive and arrogant

  • @oldhamegg I wonder, is there some form of medical attention that you can get for ignorant arrogant people who feel a pathological need to attack others???

  • Nicely done.

  • Good work Mr Cameraman ;)
