The in-home demos are a blast !!
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Religion is successful for exactly the same reason. The Pope does need to be tried as the biggest con artist ever. As annoying as I find religion, at least some/most of their pastors are just wrong and not actual, deliberate charlatans. Psychic frauds piss me off a lot more because those people know full well what they're actually doing. Maybe it's just because I'm a magician, but few things in this world make me angrier than a fake psychic.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42) Also, I has a website: www.RedbeardThePink.com RE: Long Island Medium

That is the interesting thing. Do any of these twats think they really have powers?
It's almost impossible to say. Have they deluded themselves so much that they're not consciously aware of all the cold reading they are doing? It seems unlikely, but perhaps remotely possible in some cases. Either way, the government wouldn't allow a crazy person to sell "general good luck" for 10 quid on the street, even if he genuinely thought he was selling something. So from a legal point of view, it should be irrelevant. It's up to the psychic to demonstrate they are actually selling what they claim to, and they cannot. It doesn't seem a lot to ask. Would you buy a car without ever seeing the car? Without seeing any cars? Would it be unreasonable to ask for some evidence of the cars? Feel free to send me a private message.
