Psychics? What about the accuracy ratings for weather forcasters?
Strange as it may seem, a guessing forcast is better than no forcast at all.
For example: You are very inquisitive but leary, however, "hopeful" is your main personality trait.
You like the color blue. You have never owned a brown car. You will soon find the love of your life. Be careful, don't let mistrust ruin your new love life. (I see some type of problem in your health, dehydration seems to be a factor, cellular dehydration. The cure for your health problem: Drink more water, at least 8 glasses per day.

I wonder the same thing. After all, Miss Cleo was such a 'success' and her fake Jamaican accent was terrible, her commercials were a joke and she got shut down anyway. Not all psychics are phony, that is true, but you do have to be careful. Also, the future is constantly in motion (so they say), as well as humans and their free will keeps it changing.

I do believe that there are a lot of so called psychics out there that are just trying to take advantage of people and take their money. Maybe those who believe are desperate for advice or for someone to tell them their true love is waiting around the corner or that they will fall in to money soon, etc.
But, I also believe that there are some true psychics out there. Just look at Sylvia Browne, I love her!

People believe in fake psychics because they need something to believe. It's all psychological. Sometimes people cannot find any stability in their world or they can't see any good in their future and so they grasp onto whatever they can hold to make it seem that life is worth living.

...Some folks are preoccupied with knowing the future, so they seek out these quacks. The Bible says that a true prophet of God is right 100% of the time, so what does that say about these seers?
...Jeane Dixon, a spiritist years ago, had many failed predictions -and these were seldom admitted or revealed.
...God is not the author or supporter of these people and their shenanigans; psychics and their activities are detestable to God, observe:
...10 "There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer,
...11 or one who casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead.
...12 "For whoever does these things is detestable to the LORD; and because of these detestable things the LORD your God will drive them out before you."

No is 100% all the time. You need to accept that they are going to be wrong sometimes.
The fakes make it worse for the true psychics. And cause alot of unneeded pain.
