Forgive my ignorance agentscott but do you have mediumistic tendancies yourself or are you empolying some other technique to invitie contact? I am a big fan of the live streaming concept myself though, which provider will you be ususing to stream or do you have something bespoke? |

Being completely objective, a ouija board has no more power to summon paranormal forces than a mobile phone can summon pizza. It would be the capabilities of the person using the device along with the capabilites of the device together required. just becasue one attempts to summon pizza does not mean pizza will come, the pizza supplier may not have any desire to supply pizza to the person.
A silly analogy but as Agent Scott says, he's only having a bit of fun and I would hope that if he experinces any ill effects or doubt of any kind at any time he would stop immdiatly.
Now i'm not saying the DB's point is not valid, belief is more powerful psycologically than proof and if you belive a dark figure is looming over you then that will have just as much effect as if a dark figure was actually looming above so take account that the human mind is a suggestable thing and that it may go into overdrive creativelly once stimulated with thoughts of the unknown.
My personal opinion is that you will maybe subconsiously move the pointer yourself, have a bit of an adrenaline rush and some fun and wake up the next day feeling fine. do let me know the date as i may write a little blog post myself depending on how it goes! |

You know as well as I do DB that nothings gonna happen.
I dont beleive a bit of wood and a glass will summon the dead.
How could it?? If they need letters to talk to us couldn't they simply use my fingers or anyone elses to type directly into the forum?????
But... if you get a communication from the other side DB and someone comes through asking for you thus converting you into to a beleiver then I will agree that they really work. |

If you get anyone asking for me who can prove to me that they are dead - I'll agree that there is probably life after death.
I'll not be holding my breath though mate

Yep that would do it Floss That would convince me they work.
It's a pity you not local as we could have meet up and done it in person but never mind. thats the prob with forums were all across the globe.
I honestly dont think it will but if I get something I couldn't know then they surley do work.
Dont worry Cactus were not gonna get possesed.
Anyway Ive been trying my hand at crystal dowsing and i'm still OK and it's pretty much the same thing. |
