Do psychic whackjobs really believe their own claptrap?
Read carefully the following example: http://goo.gl/ea9C6A
$100 per hour. $50 per half hour. What a bargain. Contact your dead loved ones. Find out all your medical problems. Oh my.
Oh, and what about the fun spelling errors at http://goo.gl/6gqjHk
The fruity flakey nature of the man's mother didn't help with his propensity to be sucked into such claptrap.
Here's one friend of the man in question:
"Predator was coach, Scout chief" http://goo.gl/vmC2J8
How nice.
I now have no contact with the whackjob psychic in question, and upon reflection I'm glad to also have no association moving forward with his friends, such as the abusive ex-con mentioned on the third site listed above.
Not everything is black & white, nice and pleasant, happy & healthy, in the "gay" community... Crass narcissism. Endless petty vain tail chasing. New-Age moonbattery. Easy acceptance of other abusers. These attributes are common in the culture.
Unitarians are the most accepting people? If you're too accepting you might just get AIDS, die, and leave your straight family with no father.

No, I ain't one, but after first hand exposure via my gay nephew & attendance within him at many gay parties and a few gay bars, I can see why someone would want to "live straight."
Living straight means: A more productive life, one which naturally includes the ready possibility of children. A life that doesn't require frequent contact with new age nutjobs and vain petty narcissists. A life which isn't, by default and without great effort to avoid it, a dead end. Anyway...
Observations and Epiphanies... Choosing life. Classic liberalism. Small L libertarianism. Conserving Western Enlightenment values.

Psychics are charlatans who prey on the gullible and uneducated
Psychics are, generally speaking, charlatans who use word games and common sense to prey upon the gullible and uneducated. Good work if you can get it, but let's not pretend that it should ever be taken seriously.
Good videos:

Psychics are leeches, sometimes self-deceived, often damaging, and always either wrong or right by fucking happenstance.
Similarly, we can easily replace the title "psychic" with "cultish religious founder." Same people. Same difference. Same result.
