Question?

Why is it that psychics dont invest in the stock market or go for world domination instead of litening to people's boring personal problems? Im sure they could make much more money that way. Of course this isn't evidence that psychics are false right?
 
Actually i care very little about money but i care more about finding things out than listening to people moan about their relationships. (I admit im a bit insensitive) I do believe that money and power are two of the biggest motivating factors for humanity. Ive seen alot of sef-proclaimed psychics and none of them seem to care about money (except that they like to charge by the minuite for their advice) because they dont use the methods i mentioned.
 
Money and power are the biggest motivators for frightened people, including the pay-by-the minute-psychics.
The pursuit of money and power will not lead to any improvement of humaity though and maybe that´s because many of the real psychics do not want to encourage those areas.
 
What if psychic people are, for want of a betetr word, more enlightened than the majority of people and simply don't desire money and material power? Money is just bits of paper and plastic. Power might be fun, but then you die.
 
these psychics need money too. they're using internet, some of them live in a city (where you need money just to park your car)
food costs money. who pays the bills for these psychics? and clothes,
i haven't seen any naked psychics in tv (which pays them to be there, btw). and i think psychics work, too. if not bending spoons, then maybe something little less "earth-shattering".

as for the power, the only power these people need is psychic power.

;)
 
Oh, back to the money question again? We've had that subject over and over.

It's getting boring. Money is a necessarry evil people need, to stay alive in this society. Not everyone cares for money and power over others.


By the way, is that a dead Tiger in your avatar?

"Money is a necessarry evil people need, to stay alive in this society. Not everyone cares for money and power over others."

but those who have to pay their bills, care for the money. that includes many psychics. they even charge for their powers, so why don't take the money? bend a spoon, levitate, talk to dead, whatever.

that power thing is necessary evil too... i personally don't care for it. this world is just so evil, isn't it?


ps. yes, it's a dead tiger. it probably died of natural cause, like old age or watching john edwards show.

or maybe the chinese got it. here's their reasons:

Tiger claws: used as a sedative for insomnia
Teeth: used to treat fever
Fat: used to treat leprosy and rheumatism
Nose leather: used to treat superficial wounds such as bites
Tiger bone: used as an anti-inflammatory drug to treat rheumatism and arthritis, general weakness, headaches, stiffness or paralysis in lower back and legs and dysentery
Eyeballs: used to treat epilepsy and malaria
Tail: used to treat skin diseases
Bile: used to treat convulsions in children associated with meningitis
Whiskers: used to treat toothaches
Brain: used to treat laziness and pimples
Penis: used in love potions such as tiger soup, as an aphrodisiac
Dung or feces: used to treat boils, hemorrhoids and cure alcoholism

:mad:

If the psychics are so much more enlightened why do they chare ridiculas per minuite rates to solve people's petty personal problems rather than doing someting useful like:

Helping the fire department locate people in burning buildings.
Warning peopl about earthquakes or terrorist attacks.
Try and prevent wars.
And probally hundreds of other things that i dont know off the top of my head.

If psychics are real they'd either help people, or use their powers for personal gain. They do both too badly to be considered true.
 
Well, you know....

They could just give the money to ME!

Seriously, they could give the money to charity. It would be most usefull.

So either:

A: They are heartless bastards
B: They are not true psychics
 
May we have a personal life too?

My theory on by the minute psychics are...
A. They are just fakers trying to get money.
B. Want to get paid, because then the rate of reading questions are dropped severely...

Here is a link to a post on the Psychokinesis thread:
http://www.sciforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3998&perpage=20&pagenumber=7

About 2/3rd on the page, "Why didn't anyone would predict about the WTC" stuff...

Another reason that pre-cognition a.k.a foresight isn't used to warn is.

1. It isn't always certain to happen.
2. It could be a random event.
3. It possibly could be a day dream or telepathic "scream for help" happening at the exact time.
4. The rate of doing good is still minimal...
5. The scale of dayly accidents...

6 Billion people of what (I think about) 9% are in danger of an accident that can be deadly.
That is 540 MILLION people!!!!!

Calculate the odd's on the EXACT ACCURACY of the foresight.
Calculate the percentage of people who can use Psychic powers on command...
Calculate the odd's on finding the exact location unknown to the psychic...

That's already enough for me to say "THAT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!"

And I bet I can think of more scientific odd's calculations for the next few hours...

You know the odd's of getting ripped off?

Paying for 1 thing (an order*for charity)...
And end up paying another...
(a box of the product filled whit pottatoes*your money goes to the government for weapons and warcraft or people just wanna get laid and get drunk)

Ever noticed (like why russia is a poor country) that they are poor, but even if they are, always buy useless material called militairy vehicles/defence?
And you must pay more attention to the background of the news screen people, a big devencive/offencive F-16, or stealth, or whatever...

Trust charity organisations like you do "psychic people"...
Be skeptical about them at least...
I hate to be blinded like that...

Another thing, we have lotery shows, the prize money keeps increasing, and they promise a part of it goes to charity.
Whit all the money they get of it, and give out again, the world would be a happy place again as you'd say it...

If we want a stable society again, we need to go back to (very) basic...
Wanna stop production of warcraft and warfare?
Just bomb ALL the weapon and military factories...

Wanna have a stable economical system?
Melt all the metallic round thingies that is called money, and stop cutting trees down to make the paper form of money.
Trade whit chickens, and wood and stuff like they did before the Romans spread the money fever...

Dosen't wash. You could easily make a killing on the stock market and donate a hefty share of profits to charity while having a personal life.

Sheesh, one or two lotteries would have you set. Or you could collect the reward money on Usama bin Ladin, and help end the war in Afghanistan as well.
 
I serioulsy doubt that the pay-per -minute-psychics are anything else but fakes, but that´s just my guess...:)
Anyway, many of the real psychics do help the firedepartements and policedepartements and even warn people about natural disasters and terrorist attacks, but very few chose to listen to them.

Unfortunately very few people in this world can live without money, but how many of the psychics are rich and take all the money for themselves, maybe Uri Geller and a few more...
Most of them have just enough to survive.



 
Read the last post I posted before this one...
Edited it, accedentaly posted it before it was finished...
And it comments *coincidents?* the last 2 posts..

Cyah!
 
Lyn Buchannan, a chap who used to work for the USA military and CIA and such on their psychic projects, now runs a company called PSI - Problems, Solutions, Innovations. They regularly help police departments and such. Not that I believe they are psychic. Maybe they are, maybe not. But they do get the jobs.
 
That's what I forgot to say.

There ARE psychics helping out...
If you all learn psychic abilities, you don't have to rely on someone elses predictions/abilities...

Some police and groups of the government do ask and use the help of persons contolling their psychic powers...
I won't use the word psychics anymore you all do...
Because every one is, like all of the people are lazy sometime in their life... :)

If you'd read the posts on psychokinesis, then you probably understand why some help and some don't...
Sure we can *try to* do things for good, but not everyone, like most skeptics and disbelevers, is willing to get our help...
They would like to do the opposite as they see it...

Help us to get *a healthy mind* as they say, and call the mental institution...
There are docktors and psychologists out there that do belive in the abbilities, but are still cussious to find or discover such an event.

Hope you'll understand someday.:D
 
Studies have been done concerning psychics helping the police. It turns out they do no better than chance and a little logical thinking does.
 
Obviously no such study-material is available for you to read Adam. Or maybe James R is typing them himself right now. :D
