As far as G is concerned not all rhinitis is caused by allergies, it is also known as Hay fever in some with no known real cause. Bacteria are germs, by the way! At least 1 out of every 3 with rhinitis symptoms have no allergies! I happen to be a nurse and know just a little bit about these issues. I do believe in Sylvia Brown, she has been helpful on many many occasions of locating lost love ones, so what if she gets a few wrong, are you always right about everything to say? Also she makes far more money from her books and tapes than she does being psychic, what verse is in Bible about psychics?

Sylvia Browne said on the Montel Williams show that Ben ownby was dead. He had been kidnapped by the same man who kidnaooed Shawn Hornbeck. She said this to Ben's parents who were in the audience. Guess what? He was found alive. Can you imagine what his parents went through thinking he was dead? Look in your bible and see how God feels about psycics. Their destruction.

1. I see an earthquake of some kind....or maybe a tornado, wells it's more like a big volcano. Well either way I see mother nature stirring up something in the near future, no one will know about it...and never will.
2. I predicted countries will be involved with money..and people somehow.
3. I also see lots of violence during the summer and winter and some in the fall too.
4. People will begin to notice changes in many different areas.
5. I see advancement in technology that no one has seen before.....it will change the world..sort of.
6. I see oil hidden somewhere in the world. I don't know where
7. I see a big important gathering of great importance
8. There will be a breakthrough in medical science I'm not sure in what field though but some breakthrough will occur.
9. We will witness planets and stars and galaxies do all kinds of....well planet star and galaxies like things...and it will be great!....sort of.
10. I see changes in education...not sure what though everything is all fuzzy in my head.
11. We will see very controversial laws take place in California sometime during the year....and the rest of the 49 states and eventually the rest of the world too. But laws will definitely take place!
12. People will finally have a realization of some kind and it will change the world in someway

......there I did it, I'm officially a psychic.

There is no "rhinitis germ". She doesn't even bother to do basic research. That's how little she thinks of her audience. http://www.nasal.net/allergy/rhinitis.htm
I have rhinitis. Mine is caused by allergies.

As for the prediction about the presidents, by that time, we will have long forgotten that prediction, so it will not be a miss to her fans.

To Kennykjc- The Cleveland Skeptics and The Cleveland Freethinkers meetup.com/clevelandfreethinkers have had many discussions on this topic with a variety of viewpoints. Engaging people with different views has allowed me to think differently about my own opinions over time.

Blog posts aren't meant to present a monolithic opinion of the entirety of the Cleveland Skeptics.

This has been an ongoing topic of discussion on our mailing list (archived at http://www.meetup.com/clevelandskeptics/messages/archive/) as well as at many different meetups. You are welcome to join and participate in any of these if you want to contribute. We love to challenge each others' opinions and demand that people be able to back up those opinions with evidence and reason.

A talk clearly designed to cater for the religious folk of the skeptical movement. Fallacies and nebulous arguments with nothing to back up his points. Very disappointed in Phil Plait and the Cleveland Skeptics. If you guys swooned at this talk I certainly won't be joining any time soon.

Yeah Right! The Gravity of Critical Thinking

Sorry, but I was completely underwhelmed and un-impressed by Dr. Plait's high-profile whinging about internet trolls and poes. I've intended to go more in depth with my criticism on the mailing list, but with back-to-school and so forth I haven't had the time.

I like the video of Joe Nickell taking on Bob Larson. I'll just echo what Nickell said. The fact that we're in the 21st century seriously discussing demon possession on CNN is embarrassing.

A very good point. Where someone sees Jesus, someone else sees Charles Manson, Zeus, or Santa Clause. Good post!

2010-02-25T17:43:22.968-08:00

I remember when I was about 12 a friend of mine had a book by him that her aunt gave her. It listed all these rock bands of the late 70s and early 80s and why they were tools of the devil. We had a great laugh over it. Eventually we buried it in the backyard to get rid of it.

2010-02-25T17:31:40.249-08:00

I have been a watcher of " Pastor" Larson for years, way back since 1985 when he had his radio show. Larson is, plain and simple, a con man. Its all about the attention but more about money. He charges $500 per hour for an " exorcism".

He used to have a mail order ministerial degree and tried passing himself off as " reverend" until someone online ( ahem) made a few points about the real Bob Larson. Rev, Darrel Gene Motal ( the Paranormal Preacher) has a few YouTube videos on Larson, including interviews with two women who told of their bad experiences under Bob's " exorcisms".

Also my blog site has a number of entries about BL and some of what I've discovered.

This is BTW the SECOND " reality" show He's tried to get on the air, The first on was " The Real Exorcist" and was aired in the UK until viewers complained, then four of the eps were aired in the SyFy network two years ago last Halloween.

2010-02-18T10:15:31.909-08:00

I worked at a local hotel a few years ago when Bob Larson came to do exorcisms. His handlers' instructions were very clear: no one was to enter the room during the exorcisms without their permission, and they had a bouncer/security guard at the door to enforce it. As a sound tech, I had to enter the room to change out batteries in Bob's wireless mic, but they wouldn't even let me in to do that. I gave them a handful of batteries and left. They stayed until 4 a.m. exorcising.
