CROSSING OVER with John Edwards

[Burning_Inside]

Has anyone ever seen this show???

Either this show is one of the biggest hoaxes in history, or this guy is something else.

He can recall exact names of dead people linked to the living audience, and when a spirit connected to certain audience members wants to come through, he can even name off exact important instances in that person's life that can connect that person to the spirit..I guess this is the way of opening the person up and letting them know that this spirit really is trying to reach out...And most of the time the spirit wants to settle differences with the living people. Pretty neat stuff. I just saw it now, and he sat down with these 3 ladies, and almost right off the bat, he mentioned this person's name that wanted to come through, and he was right, and the lady starts getting all teary eyed and whatnot..and he went on from there...And he mentioned to this one person how her father used to give her money to buy those candies that come on the paper sheets at the candy store...Just stuff that can't really be guessed, it's too exact.

Weird stuff, watch it sometime.

 

[MasterMind]

Well it seems to me that he is just something else...but I just like to believe in that sorta thing anyways...makes life more interesting

 

[Puc]

gotta say... the episodes I have seen are nothing extraordinary. It seems to me the people he "reads" who want to believe are always willing to give him hints (conscious or otherwise) that lead him to his revelations...

john Edwards: "ok, I am seeing an older man that has died, do you know such a person"

dumb bitch: "yes"

John: "did he die from an accident or illness?"

dumb bitch: "yes he had cancer!"

John: "was he suffering towards the end?"

dumb bitch: "yes"

John: "he is trying to come through..."

 

[Code]

Saw it once, the dude asked some mother/daughter pair if "drinking contests" rang a bell.

They looked at each other and said no.

Then he said, "well I'm getting the feeling it will be revealed later."

What a boob. ANyone can ask open-ended questions and let others fill in the blanks.

 

[tableedge]

I don't believe him, but for some reason I'm thoroughly convinced that Miss Cleo is real.

 

[The Dude]

What they don't show you is the hours of tape where he striked out. He goes through A LOT of attempts with the audience that never make the final cut. He's intuitive and good at manipulating people. I find that part pretty impressive, but not his "eerie powers."

 

[rushx79]

all of you that say he asks leading questions obviously havnt seen the show.. im no big fan of phsycics and i usually dismiss them as fakes but this guy is very very convincing.. they had a special on TLC about esp and they did a bunch of tests with the guy from crossing over, he did really good...

 

[Warik]

It's bullshit and it should be a crime. It's a shame that he is able to exploit people by using them on TV to promote his show by making them believe he has some power to communicate with the dead.

Do they not understand?

HE IS A PUNY, PATHETIC, MORTAL HUMAN BEING. He has no such power!

-Warik

 

[Code]

Sure, he did so well on those tests, SCIENCE has proclaimed him legit. Umm, sure.

The Dude, was dead on, they probably do 5 hours of taping to get 30 minutes of useful *quality* show.

 

[chesty]

Anyone have proof that he is fake?

Anyone have proof that they have hours of tape where he strikes out and show only the good stuff?

I find it so amusing to see how easily one dismisses something such as this as fake and yet profess to be a believer in god in which the proof is no more concrete.

 

[Code]

Chesty,
Miss Cleo wants her hair dryer back.

 

[Kahn]

I feel if they were really psychic, they'd call me. Don't want Edwards calling me though. Freaky shit there, buddy.

 

[LiLady11]

I definitely believe that John Edward has some sort of gift. And yes, thats what I consider it to be!! I have a family friend that attended a taping and said it was one of the most chilling experiences of her life. My mother and her friends have psychic parties and the woman who does their readings has been absolutely amazing. She does not know anyone personally so its not a hoax. But it is truly amazing what she has told us...
And yeah, I would like to see this proof of this being a hoax, the mentioned tapes and what not...
LiL

 

[Code]

I totally think that psychics at various points in time have existed.
But like tetrachromats, they are rare.


I just don't think John Edwards is one.
There are waaaaay better ways to cash in on the ability then a tv show.

 

[Warik]

What I find amusing is that people demand to see something disproven before it is ever even proven.

Ok guys. You know unicorns? Those magic horses with a horn in their heads? Guess what - they're real. I have a pet unicorn with a big blue aura who likes to conjure up cool things for me to mess with all day. Only I can see it, which kind of sucks, because he's very friendly.

What? Unicorns don't exist? I'm sorry... I have one in my backyard, but only I can see it. You're just going to have to prove that my unicorn doesn't exist. If you think my unicorn doesn't exist, then you're an idiot and a fool because you haven't disproven it - hah hah!

Now do you see why John Edwards' little show is nothing but a hoax? Give me a fucking break. Disprove John Edwards' powers? I will right after you prove them.

[Code]

Dayum, Warik...you go boy!!!

 

[Warik]

Dayum, Warik...you go boy!!!

What??? How dare you!?!? Shut up... I'm tired of you John Edwards fanatics!

Look, OK? 2 x 2 = 6. What? 2 x 2 is not 6? Why? Because 2 x 3 = 6? Big deal... it's been proven that there are many ways to get the number 6 by multiplying... 1x6, 2x3, -2x-3, and now 2x2. Face it. 2x2 = 6.

"Prove me wrong."



I can't help but laugh whenever I hear someone at school or in every day life says "Prove me wrong." You can't disprove something that has not yet been inaccurately proven!

sigh

-Warik

 

[chesty]

prove he is right. prove he is wrong. I don't care one way or the other.

BTW Warik, Unicorns do exist. Except they do not have a horn. They are strong oxen. The biblical translation in one version translates as Unicorn.

 

[Code]

Settle your bones Warik.
I am on your side. :oints to the threads::

 

[Warik]

prove he is right. prove he is wrong. I don't care one way or the other.

Nor do I. John Edwards has very little, if any, significance in my life to any degree. He's just someone to talk about for this brief instant.

BTW Warik, Unicorns do exist. Except they do not have a horn. They are strong oxen. The biblical translation in one version translates as Unicorn.

I was referring to the fairy tale/cartoon unicorn with the magical powers and the cool looking horn... simply replace "unicorn" with any nonexistant being, such as "logical-thinking liberal," and my example is still valid.

-Warik

 

[rushx79]

WOW!!!! for once i disagree with warik!!!

warik, you yourself has just admitted that you disbelieve the guy w/o even knowing a thing about him...

so your arguement is not valid....yet

still like you, even though i disagree with your opinion on this certain guy...

 

[Code]

I can read threads before they're posted.

Prove me wrong.

I can sense a thread making it's presence known...something about cars...

 

[Burning_Inside]

Anyone have proof that he is fake?

Anyone have proof that they have hours of tape where he strikes out and show only the good stuff?

I find it so amusing to see how easily one dismisses something such as this as fake and yet profess to be a believer in god in which the proof is no more concrete.

Heh, that's probably the most truthful thing I'll read all day.

Jeez, Warik, after all those years watching Masters of the Universe, there wasn't an episode to teach you that to put down something without having experienced it for yourself is something that only Skeletor would do?

Have I experienced it in real life, no, but judging from what I see on the show, not judging from what I "think" might happen behind the scenes, I'd have to say the guy has a gift.

When he looks at someone and asks, for example, "Who's Alice? She died in a car accident didn't she?" and he turns out to be dead on the money, well...Whatever.

 

[Audacious1]

I didn't read the other responses, so if this has been said, sorry. But i saw an article somewhere that says they tape long hours of the show and edit the hell out of it to make it seem so real. So he asks a lot of questions that mean nothing to these people and then one question does and that is what airs

john Edwards: "ok, I am seeing an older man that has died, do you know such a person"

dumb bitch: "yes"

John: "did he die from an accident or illness?"

dumb bitch: "yes he had cancer!"

John: "was he suffering towards the end?"

dumb bitch: "yes"

John: "he is trying to come through..."

Exactly. I'll believe that shit when someone does it to me, not when I see some dumbshit asking vague questions on TV.

I just don't think John Edwards is one.

So true, so true. You took the words out of my mouth. It would seem that if you really had extraordinary powers like that, you'd keep your mouth shut and make a fortune. Knowledge is power- you'd know precisely what to do and how to manipulate others. And you would pull some fine ass.
