No Evidence Against A Firmly-held

[psychics] Use Exactly The Same Gimmicks That We Magicians Do - The Same Physical Methods, The Same Psychological Methods - And They Effectively And Profoundly Deceive Millions Of People Around The Earth, To Their Detriment.

The Market For Nonsense Is Infinite.

A Quick Example Of That Is A Woman Who Said She'd Been Healed Of Throat Cancer Where The Faith Healer Admitted He Touched Her On The Forehead.

A Lot Of People Hate My Skepticism, And I Think I Understand Why. The Psychics Offer Wonders And Endless Possibilities In A World That Often Seems Difficult And Mundane. They Promise Health, Wealth, Wisdom, Eternal Life. But If You Examine The Record, It's Not The Psychics But The Hard-nosed Scientists Who Have Actually Delivered The Things That Improve Human Life. And, To Me, Science Describes A World Far More Interesting Than Any Psychic Fantasy. It's A Good World -- Not Perfect -- But It's Ours. So We'd Better Learn To Live With It, The Way It Is.

Feeling Better Is Not Actually Being Better.
