He's an atheist and doesn't believe in psychic powers...and he told his clients he didn't believe in psychic powers...but they assured him that he was wrong and psychic.
Harry Houdini had the same problem. As much as he tried to assure his audiences that what he did was stage magic, not real magick, they wouldn’t believe him. Even Arthur Conan Doyle - who should have known better - long insisted that Houdini had the power to de-materialize his body and pass through solid objects.
The will to believe is very, very strong.
