That's what I love about this site CC; that everyone is on the same playing field and I think you're an important voice to bring that message across.

I would have to respectfully disagree about being disrespectful to those, say; who are on TV. Firstly, respect is earned. When your show is for ratings and drama, not to mention the fact that they don't have respect for those spirits that they are supposedly investigating; respect is undeserved. I see people like this the way I do a used car salesman; a lot of talk with nothing to back it up. Their intentions are more about themselves.

I have to agree with you on this. I mean I like shows that do recreations..you know I take it as an interesting ghost story and I don't take it seriously. BUT for those investigative shows that romp and tramp through things, have no respect and call themselves demon hunters when they squeal like little girls if they even think they hear something...sorry but no respect coming from me.

I agree Pete. I spent many years in the church and learned that the ones with the titles deserve little to no respect. The sincere ones got my respect, not because of the title, but because they were sincere.

When it comes to the other side [paranormal], I believe that experience comes from being self guided. We have an intuition [everyone does] that guides us and will give us the experience that books and technology can never give us. That's why I laugh at the self and follower proclaimed "experts" because when they get their knowledge from books and technology, they really are experts at the knowledge of nothing.

There's a reason I joined this site over all the other ones out there.

I had been reading the forums long before I joined.

I just joined but I do like it. Doesn't seem to be as stressful as I have found some sites. I like the way that things can be openly stated but done tastefully. I thought it was interesting when it asks if you are a sensitive...neat huh?

I agree also. I like it hear because I feel everyone is aware that we all have different techniques and styles of investigation. Nobody seems to take offense of the fact that some of us dislike some equipment. Makes for a very great discussions!
