John Edwards is for real and theres an afterlife?
<a href="http://www.openmindsciences.com/" target="_blank">Gary Schwartz</a> was just on O`Reilly claiming he`s positive theres an afterlife and has proof.
He (Schwartz) also claimed that John Edwards is no scam artist and has been tested in his laboratory 4 times. Have a field day! |

If anyone saw that program the other night, then you could probably tell that this guy is an idiot. Everytime O'Reilly ask the guy for proof, he never had an answer. He continued to rant about his so-called scientific experiments, but made no mention about a control group. You cannot have a valid scientific experiment without a control group. This is only an attempt to sell a book that probably isn't that good anyway.

"That is an excellent question, Bill. But, I'm not going to answer it." What a fucking moron.

He's a mildly talented cold-reader, nothing more. Case closed.

God DAMN. I saw John Edwards on the telly last night and he stunk..
After a reading, they would repaly parts and reconstrue misses as though they were hits. Eg: "J: I see hairy knuckles...(several questions later) Do you have a tattoo on your leg? Mark: Uh...no. J: Or a birthmark, or a scar? Mark: Well... I have a really tiny scratch on my left leg. J: Do you know anyone with a tatoo? Mark: WOW! My boyfriend has a tatoo.." Afterwards, they skipped right from the hairy knuckles part to the "do you know anyone with a tatoo" part. Hence implying that all along John knew that a male had the tatoo. Anyone who falls for this crap deserves it. Kudos to John for fleecing the deserving. [ August 14, 2002: Message edited by: Synaesthesia ]</p> |
