Have you ever been to a spiritulist?
Do you believe what they say?
How do people react when you tell them?

they are not nice people. they will take your money and then mislead you.
I used to work for the local phone company. people would call these 900 numbers to talk to these people to get a look into their future. they would spend so much time and then get a phone bill for 900.00 and call and ask why.
I would tell them that I am surprised they weren't told to expect financial destruction soon!

I think John Edward is far better as a medium, he's so spot on. Colin Fry is a little luke warm for me.
I have had spiritualists and mediums in my family for years, it sort of got handed down.I have been used to it all my life, and you either accept it or you don't.
I'm 100% sure there are some really good ones out there and there are an awful lot of frauds too sadly. I have been to spiritualists churches and sat in circle, seen, heard and felt many things not of this world, so I believe.
Sorry for all the people that have been ripped off by charlatans and as for those phone in things, well that is purely to make money nothing more so stay clear.
You must use your own judgement to find out what is right for you and if that means seeking out a medium to advise you then so be it.

First of all there's no such thing as a genuine medium. They're all charlatans and fraudsters.
Colin Fry was outed as a con man many years before he appeared on TV. He used to go by the name of "Lincoln" and did seances where he was apparently put into a trance and tied to a chair. The seance was done in the dark, and when the so-called spirits were present they would make a luminous spirit trumpet dance round the room on its own.
However one day the lights were switched on in the middle of the seance and there was Colin caught red handed, stood up with the trumpet, waving it around. what a hopeless fraudster!!
Somehow he found his way onto TV, but he's still utter rubbish.
Colin Fry is one of the easiest to detect fraudsters!
His shows go like this:-
Fry: I've got someone here who's name begins with a J...John? James?
Audience member: My grandad's name is James.
Fry: Is your grandad in the world of spirit?
Audience person: No he's alive
Fry: .....erm...yeah...that's right....I've got someone here with a message for James....who is Thomas? someone close to James.
Audience person: Don't know anyone called Thomas
Fry: Its definitely Thomas....someone very close to James
Audience member: next door's cat is called Thomas
Fry: Ah yes, then it's a message for your next doo neighbour...is your neighbours name James too?
Audience: No it's Mildred.
Fry: then Mildred must know someone called James....That's about all I'm getting....I'll leave James's love with you.
Audience: OK I'll tell the cat.
ALL MEDIUMS ARE FAKE

Colin Fry Fraud

as a spiritualis medium i have to say yes ... i believe what they say
i have given and recieved many messages
however Colin Fry and the likes who do TV work have given spiritualism a bad name
he was once a good medium , but fame got to his head and he messed up badly .... so now he entertains
I get mixed reactions but rarely bad reactions ... except when i am on this board
but i live in Scotland where people do tend to be a bit more open to different things
and despite what JJ says we are always in control , we develop and learn... and CAN stop if we dont wish to continue doing mediumship
and i have had nothing but lovely experiences through mediumship

I don't have a choice... I am one... born that way... long before Colin Fry existed!
Can't say I like him too much... and I wonder if they get foreknowledge of their subjects... it is merely an entertainment show after all.
Stuff that comes through is rarely that precise... and... you don't get to command or order up a conference... it controls, and decides the timing and who will make contact... not you.
I was unwillingly a psychic and told I am a psychic medium by a bishop who I turned to back in 1973... I wanted it to stop but of course, it never does.
I made front page local paper news without wanting to and believe me it was not acceptable back then.
I feared it terribly until aged 28, when something really nasty forced me to confront and, with god's help, come out the other side and much stronger and unafraid.
Never dabble with it... never think you can... and never use it as a game, it will play and toy and chew you up and spit you out... and one day, Yvette will get a back lash in her life for the games she's playing now.
And you can't pee take or insult me any where as near bad as my own have done all m life... until, until, they are approaching death... and then, well it's an entirely different story, then I'm in urgent demand... it's a heavy cross to carry.
I do not use mine in a public way and never would, and never for money... it is a gift freely given, and should be wisely and freely used and never ever abused... I only ever use it when it decides on a one to one, for friends, or family, or someone I may be sitting quietly with when it pushes information at me... and you never give bad news and never use it as a party piece....
You wouldn't like my life experience.
stay safe...

It's all bunkum for the weak minded, people that can't face up to reality.
This pathetic 'man" takes advantage of gullible people that cry out to be conned.

Yes definately.ive visited spiritualist churches for years, and been told things that they couldnt possibly have known.sadly you do get frauds, who con people, and give the real mediums a bad name.some people are open minded about such things, but others are more sceptical.so id say, if youre curious, go and see a reputable medium or visit a local spiritualist church, and make your mind up from there.

Hi!
I'm afraid he REALLY gives me the creeps, so I can't even stand to watch him.
In answer to your questions - maybe.
Not every helpful, I know, but ...
