Psychics Live On TV3

I know there's already a thread concerning Wayne Isaacs open but I'd like to discuss the broader issues of this program with you here.

What is the opinion of this show in your view?

I'm rather skeptical myself and see it as slick business and greed over ability and willingness to help people.

I don't personally believe any of them have a psychic bone in their body. Even if they did, I couldn't see even the most talented psychic being able to take any reading over the phone from a studio in Hungary.

Even if you haven't any special psychic gift, the very act of sitting in a room with a subject and observing/speaking to them and noting their body language will tell you a lot.

All I see is a bunch of people handing out very general information to gullible people who really should know better. In some cases, those with long term illness or those who are potentially depressed or suffering extreme stress in their lives are being blatantly taken advantage of on air.

That's my opinion. I remain open to the idea that there are those who can see more than the sum of the constituent parts in a 1-1 situation by some gift or whatever you might like to call it but this takes the biscuit. Personally I'm lucky to be a pretty well adjusted and very happy person and I don't need, nor do I want to know my future. My future will be what I'm going to make it. I wouldn't rely on anyone to tell me this sort of thing. I can't even see how this is possible but I think that if you do think this is possible and actively seek it out, then you're instantly vulnerable and ripe to be taken advantage of.
