I’m sure everyone has seen the signs for “$5 Psychic Readings” in their town or while traveling elsewhere. What I wanted to discuss here were your thoughts on using psychics for more than just personal entertainment, more specifically in police and detective work.

There’s been documented cases in the past where police haven’t been able to solve a crime, at which point they turn to a psychic for help. What I find the most interesting is when the psychics they hire actually solve the case.

What are your thoughts on this? What about using psychics to help solve some of the current investigations (such as the Peterson or Hacking trials?)

I’m not an expert myself on the topic, but I’ve been learning a bit more from a new show on Court TV called Psychic Detectives. It’s on Wednesday’s at 9:30pm in case you want to watch it too.

if psychics are really psychic, then why don't they win the lottery?

I think some can.

Eh, I don't believe maybe 99% of them. A few years back my dad and I got our palms read at a bluegrass festival, and I might like to get a Tarot reading some time, but it's not that I think it's real, I just think it's fun.

I think "true" psychics can tell the past, but not the future. I agree with MB though, about the lottery thing.

You can make predictions about the future. You can make guesses about the past. It just happens to be based on the percentage you get right.

It's on and off with me... Sometimes, some people frighten me... I think that sometimes people can share brain waves or something... Like my best friend and I can basically "read each others' minds," so to say... We always say the same things at the same times... LOL!
