    Don't see the point of fake mediums. If you're not happy with what nature gave you, and want to go fake, go DD.

    Mediums are not all fake. Some are deluded and think they are real...although that still makes them fake, they just don't realise it.

    Did anyone in the room have a dog callex rex ? Well he wants to tell you he is happy now and try to stop worrying .
    He was a very playful dog wasnt he ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,652 ✭✭✭I am pie


    No one alive can talk to the dead. The only people who believe they can are deluded (typically due to emotional need) or scammers looking to take your money for nothing.

    Is there a white haired woman in your family that has passed on? You had a special bond with her, she's looking down and said to say she's happy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    Fake as fùck.

    GF went to one and was told that our unborn daughter's spirit (:eek:) was guiding our lives and was responsible for me landing my current job.

    Thread title should be

    "I want to see everyone post about how mediums are fake so that EVERYWUN NOS ATEISM IS DE ONLY WAY TEW BE ON AH SO RELIGIS SCUM CAN FEWCK OFF DEM DELOODED SCUM!!!!!!!"

    Anyways, aren't all medium meals in fast food places the smallest size?

    Which really makes them "small" meals?

    Which makes them fake mediums?

    Not a fan of mediums myself, but I think judging others who make a different choice to me is snobbery

    Snobbery = scumbaggery to me

    They're all either con artists or deluded. Nothing to do with different choices, it's to do with liars scamming money from the bereaved.

    No medium or psychic has ever proven their claims, and their techniques are pretty well known. Discussing con artists in a negative light has nothing to do with "ATEISM BEEN DE TEW WAY"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 984 ✭✭✭Hagar the Nice.


    I knew you were going to post that.

    Better still,I knew that you knew I'd post it.
    Anyway,a young mate I know of told me he drove his wife to a party which the guest was a medium,guy goes into the house to use the loo and heads home.
    As he walked towards the door the medium called his name and he turned around,the medium then told him his nickname,what his wife's name was,when his grandad died and things only he knew about,me personally,if they were real then why do they request a donation when they only need to mark down the Euromillions numbers?

    Can you be a wee bit more forthcoming,thanks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,652 ✭✭✭I am pie


    Nothing to do with religion or atheism. Which religion claims to be able to talk to your dead aunt to ask her if she'd let you know where she left Uncle Barry's spare key?

    They prey on the emtionally vulnerable. Not one will submit to a test on scientific circumstances, a randomly selected person under surveillance in lab conditions. They would be found out.

    But sure, yeah, keep an open mind.

    It is my experience that the large ones are more likely to be fake than the mediums, or the small, elegant ones shaped like champagne glasses. Next!

    Can you be a wee bit more forthcoming,thanks.


    Ok so I went to a medium last year. I didn't believe in any of that stuff, thought it was all a load of sh!te. I lost my younger brother from a tragic accidental death and the two of us were always as thick as thieves, very close. Anyway I said it can't hurt to go and see for the crack. I went in, shuffled a pack of cards and he told me how the brother died, who found him, how I tried to revive him by cpr. What kind of lad he was. What i put into his coat pocket at his wake. My kids names and a whole lot of other info. And message for my mam from my bro. I simply had to say 'yes' or nodded my head.

    So tell me how could a person know all of that by looking at my body language?

    Oh I know you did . I was talking to him earlier and he wants you to to know that he knows you had to do what you did and is not angry about it .
    Without saying anymore ,does that make sense to you ?:D

    Kieth Barry (who admits to being an illusionist) picked my passed grandads name out of thin air when he had my mam on stage more than that he picked his nickname which wouldn't have even been available if he somehow got the info fed to him from online.

    Its unbelieveable but its perfectly possible. If it makes you happy to believe then by all means do but when there are countless books that train you how to fake being a medium then that is all the info i need to dismiss any of them as scum who prey on people who are grieving.
