 | Medium's - Real or rubbish?I went to see a medium last night. She was really rubbish, almost laughable at how wrong she was on things "spirits" were telling her. I really don't believe in what they do. Its all too vague for me and people make it fit. What do you think?

| They play on unstable and vunerable people's emotions which isn't fair |

| Look into 'Cold Reading'. It's not hard, and can be used to pick out more information as the conversation goes on. |

| I'm rather pleased that 'rubbish' has 100% of the votes.

| Load of rabbish. I went to see one once, just to see for myself... she said all these really vague things like I was going to travel - well how would she have known that if she couldn't tell my fortune, it's not like virtually everyone in the UK goes on holiday every year?! I sat listening to her while she told me lots of things about myself that would apply to 90% of the population, and then she said if I had nothing to say, she couldn't tell me any more! They basically are good at getting people to tell them their life stories and somehow make people leave them feeling like it was the other way around. |

 (Of course that's my opinion). I do believe in ghosts etc (not sure exactly how they come about), not too sure about mediums etc though!

the only real mediums are the size between small and large, the type that say they can communicate with the 'spirits' etc, are all fake, because there are no ghosts , spirits, etc a good book to read which takes mediumship apart and is a funny story is Attack of the Unsinkable Rubber Ducks: Amazon.co.uk: Christopher Brookmyre: Books | |
