Well Im a membe rof JREf forum and haven't seen a furore. Ive seen members asking the author(or the author using another member;s account for which they were banned)detailed questions and also asking for proof .

But that doesn't fit with believers biased views sadly,
I'm always very skeptical of any situation where someone's notability hinges on their connection to another notable person

The attack dogs at JREF have been going crazy over the $50K challenge out of Arizona.

http://www.examiner.com/x-8611-Phoenix- ... -in-a-knot

On it goes. JREF keeps posting nasty comments, which keep getting deleted. One, left up with the last article, even threatens the writer and says they reported the article, about Randi's sick and twisted desire to have his ashes blown in Uri Gellers face. They can't stand exposure of their own braggadcacio.

We have private company pensions for those who are lucky enough to land a job with this sort of thing, and of course Social Security. I do hope I explained that correctly.

For every person who reads this valuable book there are hundreds of naïve souls who would prefer to have their spines tingled by a sensational but worthless potboiler by some hack journalist of the paranormal. You who now read these sentences join a small but wiser minority. Martin Gaardner (Psychology of the Psychic)

ciscop,

kinda weird post you have. I've read this forum and the Randi forum, and I don't see anything about Eddie demanding the emails be taken down. Why would you say that? It doesn't exist.

And the nasty comment about the author of the article — calling her a bullshit artist and referring to her as an "advisor"? I don't see anything about her anywhere where she calls herself an advisor. I think you've seen too many carnival acts and store front pychics. She's obviously not that. You also obviously know nothing about clairvoyance - reputable clairvoyance. No, that's not an oxymoron. Visionaries have always been with us.

BTW, there's a new article on that original Examiner page with the actual criteria for the Eddie Benitez Challenge. It's nothing like James Randi's sterile, lab experiment.

Science is great. But it works on theories more than anything else. We knew more about nutrition, for example, before science ever got ahold of the "science" of nutrition. Every other week something science has told us about what we eat and its effects is proved to be false, wrong, stupid. It "evolves" but never gets it right. Yet it damns naturalists.

Your momma knew more about nutrition than the scientists. And your grandma. And your great grandma.

The scientists that ate margarine choked on the chemicals while they were debunking homeopathy.

Back to psychics . . . science has failed. Let Benitez try to prove who's who.

The reason the professor won't try out for the MDC is that he knows he is a failure. All of this blustery talk is as everyone else can see simply rubbish. You've proven my point that you can't take the heat of an actual test so you've been dishonest here in this forum.

You've refused to answer any questions. What are you hiding? Oh sorry. You're hiding the truth. That was a simple question to answer. The truth stings doesn't it professor?
