" There are cash prizes in the 6 to 7 figure range available to anyone who can prove any paranormal or psychic abilities. Considering psychics and paranormal investigators charge fees for reading auras and contacting the dead, they obviously need the money. No one has ever collected because no one has ever come forward with any proof whatsoever. "

He has told everyone that he sees, speaks to, plays checkers with his great grandfather that died the year before this child was born.He has had about 19 surgeries in the last year &the grand father was with him every time. He also sees & speaks to 2 other children that have passed in the last yearH He is aware of his prognosis & he says he feels good & safe that they will be waiting for him.He is only 7 ! IS HE A CON, OR A ANGEL IN WAITING? "

" Many people, intelligent and non-drinkers have claimed to see spirits. How does one tell them that it was only their imagination? This is very common. "

" When I was a child, we had a room in the home I grew up in that had an evil presence. Everyone who went in that room felt it. Bad things happened(I'll spare the details) I've had other places similar things happened. One day, I discovered God. Since then, I've never had anything like that happen. The Bible says we are not supposed to give things like that an audience. Love God with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding. You can choose good or evil in your life. "

" Oh, I believe in paranormal beings, just look at the deputies of the IPSO. Barely visible, especially when you need them.

And yes they have spirits, drinking heavily, so much so, they get inebriated and go beat up people.

They are just an imaginary force, a product of our imagination. "

" These things that you see, it's not your mama or papa. They're called familliar spirits. Spirits that hung around people and got to know them quite well and can immitate anything about them and will know the answers to any question. Don't get chummy with 'em, they're not your friend. The Bible is very clear on these matters. Don't give 'em the right to stay. Cast them out. "

" Yes, I do believe in spirit guides. The ones I have encountered is here to help and guide us. I also believe in angels and I have seen them. It started the night before my son died. They are so beautiful and I continue to see them from time to time. I can feel their presense when they are near. "

" As a Christian I believe what the Bible teaches: to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. I take this to mean in heaven, not in somebody's house. Of course, the other destination following death is hades. Unless your house is heaven or hades (the Iberian wouldn't let me use the word "he--). I don't think you have peoples' spirits dancing around your house. "

" If I see one I'll believe it, but I never have. There are evil spirits loose, but you're not supposed to open yourself to that sort of thing, or you could become possessed. Not a good thing to fool around with. "

" The paranormal is a con job. Anyone who claims to talk to, see, or detect the presence of dead people is a con artist who is making a sucker out of a grieving person. You just have to be vague enough and people will con themselves because they prefer a comforting scam to cold reality.

This is how you run a paranormal scam:

Someone reading this has a relative named Mike or Matt who passed on. He looks to be an older man. He says the month of December was special to him. "

" Nope, it is all in their head. They want it so much that they imagine it. Of course, people won't admit that. If it is what they need to comfort, then so be it. I cry to comfort myself, some people conjure up "spirits" to comfort. Living here in "cajun country" you find a lot of goofy folklore and stuff from the old folk. It is all phony if you ask me, intentionally or not.
