Welcome to my philosophy section which is presented here in the form of a psychic blog. I post here short comments, philosophical arguments and metaphysical articles about current issues within Spiritualism, what's happening in the psychic world and also share my thoughts with you about being a medium.
If you enjoy the thought-provoking articles on these pages do please join in the associated debates running in the forums. I do not expect everyone to agree with what I say and if you reply in the forums I encourage our monitors only to remove posts that are offensive, rude, racist or off topic and so on but not the posts that we disagree with. I like to encourage debate and gain input from skeptical people as well as people who are completely convinced by many of the spiritual ideas presented on this site.
Those who know me well, know that I can sometimes be a bit of a rascal and a maverick so I also like to challenge some of our cherished spiritual beliefs with the intent of making us think about our preconceptions. I hold that we need to replace belief with direct experience. It is only then that we can know something is true or not - and this is particularly important when applied to spiritual issues and mediumship.
Skeptics view the world with doubt but nonetheless I hope will approach our forums with an open-mind in the hope that they will be presented with evidence to convince them of our arguments for life after death and so on. A bigot is someone who has pre-conceived ideas, a prejudiced person who is intolerant of opinions, lifestyles, or identities differing from his or her own. We don't like spiritual bigots or 'rationalist' bigots.
I hope you will approach our debates with a genuine desire to discover the truth and maintain politeness, mutual respect and the cheerfulness that is the hallmark of our philosophy and paranormal forums.
