Hy. There are a lot of mediums, and other psychics who are very popular, have their own shows, and a lot of people are believing them. But... do you know some of the very popular self-declared psychics who have been debunked?
Depends on what you mean by psychics, but one of the most famous examples are probably Uri Geller and Peter Popoff:
You might want to check more of Randi's videos and his own forum.
"Respect for personal beliefs = "I am going to tell you all what I think of YOU, but don't dare retort and tell what you think of ME because...it's my personal belief". Hmm. A bully's charter and no mistake."
She battled through in every kind of tribulation, She revelled in adventure and imagination. She never listened to no hater, liar, Breaking boundaries and chasing fire. Oh, my my! Oh my, she flies!
One thing I was wondering was whether there is anyone who genuinely believes that they're psychic, and I honestly can't find a single example. Obviously people currently making a living as a psychic is going to maintain the pretence that they are being genuine, so they're not reliable. With religious people, I know that they're (generally) not faking it from atheists who used to be religious and admit that they genuinely believe it. But I've never seen or read an interview with a former psychic who says they genuinely believed that they had special powers and now realise they were mistaken, although I have read about former psychics who admit it was all a con. But you'd think that there might be a few who genuinely believe themselves to be psychic. A bit like those martial artists who genuinely think they have special powers and so invite a proper martial artist to fight them and suddenly realise that they don't.
I get the same. Which is stupid since I can watch it on TV in the UK a couple of days later...
I have NO BELIEF in the existence of a God or gods. I do not have to offer evidence nor do I have to determine absence of evidence because I do not ASSERT that a God does or does not or gods do or do not exist.
