There's a million bucks for anyone who can prove it: http://www.randi.org/site/index.php/1m-challenge.html

Anyone else have an opnion?

As stated before , I have communicated with other beings telepathically.
Originally posted by divegeesterI was mesmerized by it at first. "They" were very gentle with me, as obviously I was freaking out. They took me through a few simple steps in order to teach me how to respond with my mind.

Do you mean human beings, extra-terrestrial beings or spiritual beings, and what did they say/you say to them?
Originally posted by yo its mei personally believe that god doesn't usually tweak each human so they get extra special powers. in the old testament and the new, the prophets and apostles were not really x-men but rather conduits of god's power. they really were messengers through which god was performing.
I would like to read your opnion on this Zahlanzi, how about I put it in straight questions so you can see what I'm asking.
Do you beleive some people have psychic ablility?
Where do you beleive this ablility comes from? Ie God, mother Earth, we all have it or maybe the Devil.

It is in the highest degree a spiritual matter. It has nothing to do with science, but it might has to do with culture. But I would, if someone asks me descipe it as spiritual.
Didn't Jesus stare at a goat once? Telling that it was the Devil himself? Cloves, horns and tail and all...?
Originally posted by karoly aczelI don't think hypnosis would tell you very much at all. It might end up with you under hypnosis admitting that the experience was made up, but if that happened would you believe it?
I would love to be hypnotized to confirm my basic instincts about these "contacts" , but in the absence of any other explanation , I will have to go with my gut instincs about these experiences.

If the experience was genuine ie you really did communicate with someone/thing else telepathically, then I really don't see how hypnosis could confirm this.

Law enforcement has been using psychics for decades. And, before that, kings had court psychics who did the same thing.
Hypnotism is a scientifically proven tool. That comes from shamanism, not science, and is thousands of years old.
There have been professional scientific studies that prayer is effective. Here is an article on one:
