Someone who has been 27 and comes across many of that age. Its a fact many people in their early twenties think they know everything. |

Wow. There is a lot of bitterness here.
However, so as not to offend anyone in particular: The above statement was not meant to insult, belittle or berate. It was not directed at any one person be they male or female. I intend no disrespect by listing male before female. All are equal. Everybody's "ok". Any views expressed in my posts are that of my own opinion. I am not responsible for sensitive and politically correct (read: dummies  ) persons coming down with ill feelings and blaming my or their ancestors for any misgivings.
The smile placed after "dummies" in previous paragraph is there to alleviate any said "sting" that may have been a burden to those feeling such personalized content being directed at them. It is NOT directed at anyone in particular or any group of people. My posts reflect personal opionion and therefore hold no legal weight. Now, please everyone notice the "caution: hot" notice on your coffee cups, pay the new tax coming up in San Fransisco(?) on non-diet drinks because it makes you fat, and don't forget to spell it "womyn" not woman. Now for the REAL disclaimer. That was all tongue-in-cheek. Oh yea, Happy Hol- I mean Merry Christmas. |

It's sad when people actually think one can "communicate" with the dead. Shows just how desperate some people become after losing someone and how they are unable to move on and put the past behind them.
Memories and sadness of losing a loved one is understandable and expected. When one thinks someone can come along and tell them what their loss might be saying to them, they are being sold pure snake oil. It's too bad people get away with peddling false hope while playing on the emotions of others. Mark. |

I think the 'disclaimer' that was flashed across the screen at the end of his show provides us with plenty of clues:
“The Producer has relied heavily on the contributions of John Edward and other third parties in the creation of this program, which has been produced for entertainment purposes only. “The materials and opinions presented in this program by John Edward and other third parties, including statements, predictions, documents, photos and video footage, come solely from their respective third party sources, and are not the views, opinions and responsibility of the Producer and are not meant or intended to be a form of advice, instruction, suggestion, counsel or factual statement in any way whatsoever.” |

Because you know some magic tricks? I think where critics are missing the point is that it all comes down to BELIEF! Not facts. Not knowledge. But opinions. I've seen enough of John Edward to think he actually believes in what he is doing. So does his followers. For those who subscribe to 'Live and Let Live' philisophy; Isn't that enough? |

I've never seen the man live, just on TV, but many of my friends in the Spiritulaist Churches have seen him and hold him in the highest respect.
That means a lot to me. Tony |

I love the quote on the vid R.S put up. I paraphrase here:
It's easy to talk to the dead...the hard part is getting them to talk back. 
Magic is a vanishing art.

I have a high respect for John Edward and many other mediums. I don't buy these broad generalizations about every one of them "defrauding a vulnerable public" or anything of the sort. Most readers I have encountered have deep compassion for their subjects and provide what I consider to be a valuable & therapeutic service.
