Many people cannot be happy with their own beliefs; their minds are programmed to attack others who don't think as they do.

    Mud-slinging certainly is a popular hobby these days. Whatever became of kite flying?
    Did you even read my last post beyond the first sentence? "I don't deny any individual's experience with what appears to be supernatural. I've had my own experience with an event which confounds my ability to explain it, and I know of others who have also." How does that constitute an attack of any sort?

    As I said above, but will repeat again, my problem is with those who profiteer from the beliefs of others. The entire history of 'psychical research' is filled with shams and charlatans. That's why Harry Houdini got into the business of debunking the fakes, as it seems Carrington did also.

    There have been debunkers converted into believers after examining someone they attempted to expose as a fraud.

    Psychic research is no different from politics. Dishonest people are attracted to both fields because of the money. Although many politicians are crooks, not all are. There are a handful of honest ones.

    As I stated earlier, to each his own. Be happy with whatever you believe.
