I love how she paints herself as "working for god". Beyond the obvious, it's amazing the level of manipulation of the audience that this statement represents. You're aren't being a skeptic, you're a heretic!! Or so she'd have us believe.
The double irony is that in Abrahamic religionists would stone soothsayers back in the day...
Wow, that "he does something with his hands" line may be the most vague hook attempt ever. Virtually every job on the face of the Earth requires you to use your hands. Once the woman said "Plumber" Doris added in the part about tools.
Debunking psychics is pitifully easy... how can there be people who believe their tripe? WAKE UP.
It's the power of adrenaline (excitement), as well as placebo. It's essentially just tricking the person to thinking they're healed, so they feel less pain temporarily, and hence can do things. They are specific to choose only candidates that fit a certain profile (PAIN, partial blindness, partial deafness, cancer/AIDs/diabetes, etc.)
if "psychic" abilities really are such a "rare gift", then how is it that every one and their mother seems to have these "abilities"? shouldn't there be like, only 100 people in the whole world who have these "RARE" abilities? and also, why is it that virtually every female "psychic" is over weight? surely they should "see" they ought to keep them selves fit and toned?
@qwyzl Everyone does have these abilities, but most only experience moments of noticeable psychic awareness (eg, precog dreams, intuition/gut feelings, telepathic communication, OBE's, etc.)...whereas a genuine psychic/sensitive will experience them much more often to the point where it becomes a kind of "second life". And psychics are often overweight (and even haggard looking) because of the stresses imposed by their extreme sensitivities. It's not any easy, nor envious or glorious life.
@No1warp9 most self proclaimed "psychics" are fakes who are out for money. i have yet to see one who isn't a cold reader. and the reason the "psychics" are over weight is on account of all that good livin' from all the money they make from people who buy in to their cons. i do believe some times people get the occasional weird feeling - but i do NOT believe the "psychics" who publicize them selves are any thing but fakes.
@qwyzl Most psychics (real or not) do not make a lot of money. Only those who get the most exposure will/can earn sizable fortunes. Doing psychic readings is rarely a lucrative field. Also, real psychics don't heavily market themselves, if at all. They typically work 'underground' and by word of mouth or give mostly free readings (such as the one I live with). This is why you've probably never met a real one. The fakes far outnumber the reals, and also heavily market/advertise themselves.
@qwyzl You should also be aware of the difference between fakes, technical readers, and real psychics. A technical reader is not born psychic, but can be extremely adept at reading the cards, astrology & other tools of divination. In fact, some seasoned technical readers can be as accurate, if not more, than real psychics because they are not subject to the biases and shifting sensitivities & other-dimensional realities experienced by real psychics.
@qwyzl The Windbridge Institute has been conducting serious scientific research and investigations into the potential of the human body, mind, and spirit.
@No1warp9 until i have my own proof - bunkum. and how well are these tests performed? biased views can make the results of the test come out any way you want.
@qwyzl You will likely not find your 'proof' via the scientific method because psychic and paranormal phenomenon cannot be placed into a box to perform on demand when, how, and in what form the scientific method requires. Modern science works with the mundane (gross matter). It is ill-suited for studying the fundamental makeup and source of all reality (ie, consciousness). The scientific method can only yield clues...but not proof. The real proof will always rest with the individual.
@No1warp9 wrong. a person's "psychic" or they ain't. they can either make predictions or they can't. period. if 1 says 1 can make predictions, it can be easily proven. have the "psychic" write all events from the major 2 the trivial that'll occur in 2 yrs. put the "predictions" in an envelope. put the envelope away for 2 yrs. after that, open it. THEN we'd see how "psychic" this person is. & there can be no claims of events being changed, cuz NO ONE will see the "predictions" 'til AFTER 2 yrs.
@qwyzl You're lacking an understanding of how the future unfolds. What a true psychic might see 2 years into the future is not caste in stone. Instead, what is seen is merely a snapshot of a future from this exact present moment. The same future may look different if viewed hours, days or weeks later. Also, a true psychic doesn't control what is shown to them. They may or may not see certain events through the next two years or they may see events that will occur next week or 10 years from now.
@qwyzl Now you see why the scientific method is inadequate to understanding and integrating occult/psychic/paranormal phenomenon...particularly the true nature of consciousness itself. However, discoveries and concepts emerging from the field of QM (particularly quantum entanglement and non-locality) both support and confirm psychic phenomenon...yet still fail to fully grasp or explain it. This is because consciousness is both the object AND the observer (ie, the Creator AND the Created).
@No1warp9 actually i don't see. too many people are putting way too much stock in recent scientific discoveries and tailoring them to fit their own views. again - you are either "psychic" or you ain't. you can either make "predictions" or you can't.
@qwyzl You need to understand another important point. Being 'psychic' doesn't necessarily mean that one can predict/see the future. It means one has extrasensory awareness of other realities which most others are unaware of...such as communicating with 'dead' people, communicating with animals, plants & inanimate objects, seeing auras, recalling one's 'past-lives' in detail, picking up the thoughts & feelings/intentions of strangers, etc. Seeing the future is common, but to varying degrees.
@No1warp9 i need proof. i don't dismiss the possibility of an "after life" and spirits and such out of hand - but i need proof. especially for claims of "predictions" or "seeing" in to the past as well as "seeing" what's going on some place else at the present. until i have proof - i can not believe in this stuff.
@qwyzl I understand your skepticism, and I myself require ample evidence...though absolute proof is in most cases going to require a degree of faith. So I don't look for proof, but rather a preponderance of supporting evidence. In your case, it would be more fruitful to pursue evidence for ESP...not future predictions...because you may be confronted with a real psychic who is lousy at interpreting what he/she is shown in terms of the future, or who is not gifted or adept in that specific area.
@No1warp9 i'm not going out of my way to look for these people, be cause i am of the belief no such people exist. if they do, they're hiding in a cave some where.
"Work for God". Haha! I don't know if this is addressed in the video or not (I'm making a comment about halfway through it), but the Bible outlaws mediums. The punishment, I believe, is death by stoning.
So if we were really to work for God... we would stone mediums to death.
I find the 'Randi is jealous' argument baffling.He is easily as famous,if not more so,than the majority of these 2 bit conjurers.First,he was an accomplished escape artist.Now,he's a published author, folks pay him to do primetime tv,& he's in high demand as a public speaker.Isn't it just possible he feels moral outrage at folks who use false belief & chicanery to make money? I know I do.And if u have to mention his sexuality to deride him,your argument is invalid.Lonely? He drowns in friends.
"I think the man is evil!" Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Those who exploit the sorrow and pain of the bereaved will have a special place in hell.
What? She keeps feeling to want tools? How exactly am i supposed to imagine that. Is he sending her a longing for tools? Why would he do that? I mean its not like spirits stay plumber ghosts. Are plumbers so obsessed with plumbing they d long for tools long after their death?
And why doesnt she continue to tell her about this longing for tools? Is it bothering him much? Do i have to be worried i ll long for tools after i die?
personally i feel she is full of shit but if people feel better around her then let them get on with it we are all adults and capable of making our own decisions.
As an amateur magician, I am often tempted to become a psychic ie. invent a false name and persona and join one of these crazy churches where I can convince the deluded congregation of my powers, largely as an experiment to see how far I can push it. If I was really immoral, it would be very easy to earn a comfortable income this way.
@UncleFeedle I hear ya.My stepmum is a well-known astrologer who writes for a national mag & while I've always been fascinated by the history of magic & occult practices,I am strictly a skeptic and non-believer.I've often thought it would be an easy way to make money-take my knowledge of historical arcana & pretend I'm some sort of 'wisewoman'- but morality prevents me from doing this.My step-mum is no huckster-she genuinely believes it & doesn't make a huge living,but I wouldn't do it.
@ariesscorpiorising [Genuine psychics DO make mistakes you thick fuck.? You have no authority on this you fuddy duddy]
Gee...quite an imagination you have. What other interesting words can you combine?
When I said real psychics don't make mistakes, I meant what they experience through their psychic awareness is always truthful and is never a mistake. Potential mistakes only come by how they INTERPRET their psychic visions/feelings/experiences, which can be literal or symbolic.
@drsetherz [why, if psychic abilities do exist, do we not all have them?]
Psychics (and especially animals) are born more "aware" of other realities/dimensions of existence & more "sensitive" to other levels of "awareness" than others. However, everyone is psychic to varying degrees of sensitivity, but most are either not cognizant of it or experience it only occasionally (such as intuitive/gut feelings, precog dreams, past life visions/memories, auric interaction, OBE's, telepathy, etc.).
ariesscorpiorising I wonder if you mother dropped you on your head when you were a baby or maybe some of your past girlfriends burst out laughing when they saw how tiny your penis is. To try to have a proper debate with a person like yourself would be like trying to beat a prick at a pissing game! Have you ever considered going to see a psychic as you also seem to be emotionally vulnerable! Or you could pull your bottom lip over the rest of your face and head and swallow!
A genuine psychic doesn't make mistakes...there's no such thing in fact. They state exactly what they are shown, so everything they see is real and has meaning (otherwise it wouldn't be shown to them). The problem sometimes arises in interpreting what they see/feel/taste/hear...which can be difficult. Real psychics are given information that is either taken literally or symbolically. A seasoned psychic will usually know the difference.
@ariesscorpiorising WHAT? How is it possible to make mistakes and say they don't work on chance? They compare themselves to doctors BUT doctors go to school, educate themselves, weight the chances, are logical and do not say they have godlike "powers".
Only a brain dead nob end would compare exploitation of people who are emotionally vulnerable to going to fucking KFC. If ariesscorpiorising had a brain cell it would probably die of loneliness.
@candjim You sad twat, exploiting hunger is WORSE than exploiting the emotionally vunerable, you coronary retard!! And besides, exploiting emotionally vunerable is what KFC do to all the obese fattys looking to food for comfort. At least Doris entertains the whole family, minus clogged arteries. You fat fuck. ;D
Aren't people who believe in psychics fundamentally closed minded? Science and reason continually put forward suggested methods and techniques to explain how a psychic can achieve their seemingly amazing feats. Yet those who believe in the spiritual world continually dismiss them.
You see, the funny thing about science is, it is always changing its opinions based on new studies and discoveries. So how could it possibly be 'closed minded'?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@ariess I must admit I did laugh at your comments. They aren't half bad, just nonsensical. Hmm, I'm not fat though or having problems in the women department, so I was wrong about you being psychic, damn. In the end we both have a right to our opinion and my opinion is that you have no right to your opinion ;D. I await your next comments further mentioning my weight or sexual prowess. Have fun. As for me, I have life to tend to and will not comment further ;D
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@ariesscorpiorising Haha, while I agree he may smell, being that he is old, I don't agree he is a sad man. He is only trying to prevent those who would take advantage of others and swindle them out of their money and in some cases, their health from doing so. Sounds like a stand up guy to me. He isn't saying there aren't any psychics out there, just that there is no evidence yet to suggest there is. Sounds the same, but it isn't.
I'm still waiting to see the headline, "psychic wins lottery!"
@ffgew22 WRONG- the reason he is doing this is for the attention, cos he is lonely and sad. He has no wife or other spanky friends to talk of, and he lives alone, unnoticed. Except until he pokes his nose into other peoples business, so he can get the recognition he so yearns, and hopefully some little lady willl see him on TV and fall in love wih him! Also there is nothing wrong with exploiting people for money. Your friend at KFC constantly exlploits your hunger for chicken to make money!! ;D
@ariess How'd you know I like KFC, you must be psychic!! Your argument with food and whether he has a wife is erroneous. Its typical of someone with no good argument to attack the other party. If you wish to continue to be deluded and throw your money away on psychics and faith healing, go ahead. Providing a legitimate service like food is not exploitation, it is business. Doing so as the psychics do for sole monetary gain with no legitimate service provided is theft. ;D
@ffgew22 I dont spend money on psychics, but I think they are just great! Especially the con artists! And it IS the same as providing a legitimate service like food, considering most food is full of shit and makes people obese and ill like yourself- as the psycics service fullfill those arrogant greedy fuckers who think that anyone professing psychic powers OWES it to the general public to give them answers to their greedy grasping arrogant questions. Et voila, thicky. ;D
@ariesscorpiorising Im sure you'll have a good time spending your hard earned money on psychics selling you fakery, and I'm sure your happiness will improve immediately. Im happy to say I'd stay home doing essentially the same thing as you. The only difference is, when I get finished masturbating, I'm going to have a little something to show for it ;D
@ffgew22 Jeez, get off my dick already. I already said, I dont spend money on psychics, but they ARE pretty cool, ESPECIALLY the fakeys. I can believe the 'staying at home masturbating' thing from you, as your lardy ass cant get past the front door, and you have to pay the pizza girl a bit extra to give you a little something extra with your pizza. Not something I need to do as I get plenty of pussy.! ;-D
@desertsonata That'll explain the pissy pants jealousy then. Typical gaylord, cant BARE the thought of someone else stealing the limelight. Especially someone charismaritic and cool like Doris Collins. Fakey or not, she is BITCHIN COOL, and has made a lot of money and fame from this shit. And GOOD FOR HER. This is something the pansies cant stand- someone stealing all the thunder and attention from them. ;D
@desertsonata My my, you DO have mother issues, dont you? And there IS something special about Doris- being a manipulative cunty old lady is special enough for a start! MMMMmmmmmm, cunty old ladies, nothing bad about that. Yummy yummy YUUUUUUMMMMMYYY!! ;-D
@ariesscorpiorising By the way, there's a difference between KFC "exploiting" our hunger for money and Doris Collins. First of all, when we buy KFC, WE'RE ACTUALLY GETTING FOOD THAT MAKES US NOT HUNGRY. When Doris Collins does her bullshit act, people lose their money and get nothing from it other than fucking lies.
@desertsonata You are a sad bitter DUMB SHIT. There is no difference at all, as KFC sell you shit food full of shit chemicals that make fat asses like you satified and obese when you got greedy guts.
Doris also satisfies the public as her shows are a cathartic experience for all who go to them, whether she has a message for them or not, and they go home feeling comforted and satified. Greedy arrogant grasping mongoloids like you dont deserve answers from Doris or any fucker else. ;-D
@ariesscorpiorising Oh, I'm terribly sorry. They get a bit of false hope from the experience. If that cunt of a woman wanted to actually HELP people, she'd be doing charity work and donating money, not lying to people's faces to get rich. She was an attention seeking cunt. Pure and simple. And you're a fucking idiot for worshipping her.
@ariesscorpiorising To be honest, I think a 'little lady' is that last person he wants to have interested in him.
Also, this may just be my view, but isn't there a difference between charging £4.99 for a some chicken at KFC to exploit someone with mild hunger and charging upto $750 (taken from John Edward's website) to exploit a parent who's child has just died? If KFC said they'd feed all the starving people of he world but charge £4.99 a meal, I think even you would be up in arms at this
@Stubert85 Yes, I have already been told about his faggyness, thats no new reveation, and no one cares, "to be honest". ;)
And second of all, you are WRONG about KFC. There really is no difference between exploiting the living or the dead. In fact KFC exploiting the living does much more harm causing millions of ruined miserbable lives due to heart attacks, morbid obesity etc. Then poor Doris has to clean up the mess post mortem by doing a seance for these greedy fuckers for a paltry $750. ;D
@ariesscorpiorising He is only trying to find the truth. James Randi, like most people who use logic and reason, are likely tired to living in world where people can claim abilities without any real proof. I don't know about you, but I also want to live in a world where claims have to pass scientific scrutiny. Science is the best tool we humans have to analyze our environment.
@ariesscorpiorising He doesn't pick on them xD They come to him willingly for his prize money and NONE of them get it because they are fakes. The others are too scared to lose their millions that they get from gullible losers and illogical crazy religious people.
@ChurchOfKali66619 You Saddo!! TeeHee. You are the tenth person to say he is gay- like it is something shocking and imperessive. HaHaHa!!!! Youre funny! We all know he is gay, and no one cares. He is still a sad dweeeboid who needs to get attention cos he is jealous of the attention that psychics, both fake and real, get. And people with many fans and followers are among the people with the most lowest self esteem, and in the most need for even more attention, like him. Youre hilarious!! ;-D
@ariesscorpiorising He´s jealous? Of the psychics? Wow, how stupid can one get? Why the hate? did he debunked some hero of yours and showed him up for the fraud he is? What was it? Psychic? Astrologer? Dowser?
@ebrobaru You retard Faaag!! xD I have a billion girlfriends, and a bitchin life! ;D Silly Billy, he did not debunk anyone like you said, cos I'm not really into psychics, astrologers,etc. and I have no 'heros' as you mentioned, because I am not a poof like yourself. The only thing I worship is pussy, and a good hard fuck fest.
But I do think psychics are just so COOOOL!! And ESPECIALLY the fakeys. They are just the cutting edge of BITCHIN! You are the gay fool who worships fag randi ;-)
@MonTag666 I know more about really than you do "friend". TeeHee, stuck in your little brain box, waving your arms about in an intellectual spazz. Too funnyyyyyyyyy!! ;D
@ariesscorpiorising no such thing as a real psychic. It's all cold reading bullshit. Until I meet a psychic that can win the lottery every time or gets hits on every single statement they make I will believe them.
The placebo effect is sort of a chicken and egg thing? If people think they feel better from taking a placebo, didn't it then make them feel better? Obviously not for a tumor or something, but like for a headache?
yeah that's exactly right, if people unknowingly take a pill that claims it cures headaches when actually it has nothing in it there's a chance that person will feel better for taking it.
just because people like this woman exploit their fake 'powers' for money doesn't invalidate the whole idea of weird things science can't or won't explain. Or things like the 'Backster Effect' or plant perception that are ignored by mainstream science but are a whole lot more real than this fraud with her cold reading bs
I hate it when "psychics" tell you something, and you know it's not correct, they sit and argue with you to try and make you go along with the BS they are spewing to make their garbage fraud look better.
An estimated 200,000 Americans die needlessly every year from preventable medical mistakes and hospital errors (see 'Dead by Mistake'), and that's America alone. That's higher than are killed in car accidents. Many thousands of others are left irreversibly injured from medical stuff-ups.
@ThePsychoReturns If doctors focused on health rather than illness a lot less people would get sick with things such as appendicitis as well as diabetes, heart disease, cancer and so on.
@ThePsychoReturns Disease originates in the mind due to problems such as chronic stress and worry which then manifests as energy blockages in the body and later as disease. Psychic healing can clear the stress and worry as well as the blockages so that the body can heal, before it gets to the stage of these serious diseases when it is often too late to reverse them. Prevention is better than cure.
@ThePsychoReturns Many diseases are lifestyle related. Heart disease, diabetes and cancer are often due to obesity, smoking, poor eating habits and lack of exercise. Other diseases are contracted due to low immunity - another symptom of poor health. People are not victims of disease, they need to take responsibility for their own state of health rather than rely on a doctor to fix them.
@Gwendolyne3 You could be a marathon-running vegetarian and still get bitten by a rabid dog or eat some tainted spinach. Faith healers won't be able to help you, but doctors with the aid of modern medicine will.
@ThePsychoReturns Tainted spinach doesn't sound too serious, however, different types of healing are appropriate in different circumstances. A person doesn't have to choose between doctors or psychic healers or naturopaths etc and stick only with that one. Doctors have their place, as do many other forms of healing.
@Gwendolyne3 If we still relied on faith healers, we'd still have an average lifespan of thirty years. They don't work. Go to a doctor to repair your ruptured spleen and you'll be fine in a couple of days. Go to a faith healer and you'll be dead tomorrow. Faith healers are not effective.
@ThePsychoReturns A ruptured spleen is usually removed so it would take more than a few days to recover. Faith healers and psychic healers are not the same thing. A faith healer is the kind that stands in front of a church and supposedly heals through religious faith and I've only seen one who was obviously a charlatan. Psychic healing isn't that and in my experience it works as long as the practitioner has a genuine healing gift.

This is because consciousness is both the object AND the observer (ie, the Creator AND the Created).

@No1warp9 actually i don't see. too many people are putting way too much stock in recent scientific discoveries and tailoring them to fit their own views. again - you are either "psychic" or you ain't. you can either make "predictions" or you can't.
qwyzl 3 months ago
@qwyzl You need to understand another important point. Being 'psychic' doesn't necessarily mean that one can predict/see the future. It means one has extrasensory awareness of other realities which most others are unaware of...such as communicating with 'dead' people, communicating with animals, plants & inanimate objects, seeing auras, recalling one's 'past-lives' in detail, picking up the thoughts & feelings/intentions of strangers, etc. Seeing the future is common, but to varying degrees.
No1warp9 3 months ago
@No1warp9 i need proof. i don't dismiss the possibility of an "after life" and spirits and such out of hand - but i need proof. especially for claims of "predictions" or "seeing" in to the past as well as "seeing" what's going on some place else at the present. until i have proof - i can not believe in this stuff.
qwyzl 3 months ago
@qwyzl I understand your skepticism, and I myself require ample evidence...though absolute proof is in most cases going to require a degree of faith. So I don't look for proof, but rather a preponderance of supporting evidence. In your case, it would be more fruitful to pursue evidence for ESP...not future predictions...because you may be confronted with a real psychic who is lousy at interpreting what he/she is shown in terms of the future, or who is not gifted or adept in that specific area.

I know I do.And if u have to mention his sexuality to deride him,your argument is invalid.Lonely? He drowns in friends.

@drsetherz [why, if psychic abilities do exist, do we not all have them?]
Psychics (and especially animals) are born more "aware" of other realities/dimensions of existence & more "sensitive" to other levels of "awareness" than others. However, everyone is psychic to varying degrees of sensitivity, but most are either not cognizant of it or experience it only occasionally (such as intuitive/gut feelings, precog dreams, past life visions/memories, auric interaction, OBE's, telepathy, etc.).

A genuine psychic doesn't make mistakes...there's no such thing in fact. They state exactly what they are shown, so everything they see is real and has meaning (otherwise it wouldn't be shown to them). The problem sometimes arises in interpreting what they see/feel/taste/hear...which can be difficult. Real psychics are given information that is either taken literally or symbolically. A seasoned psychic will usually know the difference.

ariesscorpiorising 9 months ago 7
@ariess How'd you know I like KFC, you must be psychic!! Your argument with food and whether he has a wife is erroneous. Its typical of someone with no good argument to attack the other party. If you wish to continue to be deluded and throw your money away on psychics and faith healing, go ahead. Providing a legitimate service like food is not exploitation, it is business. Doing so as the psychics do for sole monetary gain with no legitimate service provided is theft. ;D

@ThePsychoReturns Disease originates in the mind due to problems such as chronic stress and worry which then manifests as energy blockages in the body and later as disease.
