Oh, look, it’s a Heaven’s Gate cult member wannabe.
Planning to hop on a UFO hiding behind a comet?
He quoted exactly what you said. You lied. No you are trying to do damage control with vauge platitudes.
I’m sooo close to making a pit thread on this.
No, I did not say I had a 95% accuracy in anything, no I did not claim to have any “powers”, NO, NO, NO.
There are no such thing as psychic powers, again my words are twisted and distorted to prove some nonexistent point.
WILL YOU PLEASE QUIT LYING ABOUT WHAT I SAY!
How do I get off this thread?
Insulting my beliefs and calling me names, and by a moderator who I thought was supposed to stop that sort of conduct.
Guess I was wrong.
Love to you David

There is an eleven minute difference between his post and yours. Even if what he writes is wrong, you cannot expect the moderators to react like lightning. They have lives to live.
Aaaaaaaaaagh!
Your “beliefs” have failed to stand up to even the slightest scrutiny, and I did not call you a name.
No. I guess you just don’t understand the rules. Which is not surprising considering how much else you don’t understand.
He interpreted my words to suit what he wanted to say. In real debates he would be called down.
As for the pit, go man go. The pit only shows evidence of the lack of respect skeptics have for those who don’t believe as they do.
It certainly doesn’t make them right and others wrong.
Skeptics don’t win debates they just run off the spiritual people with their insults. A sorry situation for a board that has strict rules against it.
lekatt whined:
In real debates, the judges would have sent you home to find a scrap of evidence long ago. In real debates, you don’t win by saying, “Oh sure, you may have evidence, but I KNOW what’s true,” which is essentially what you have been doing.
Face, it you wouldn’t last 30 seconds in a real debate.
No, all of the evidence that you have ignored here is what makes skeptics right and you wrong. The Pit is a place for some people to vent when people like you drive them to the brink of insanity. Personally, I almost never go there, but after seeing the way you have acted here, I can see why others would.
Oh please. First, you show that you still don’t understand the rules. Second, you show that you still don’t understand debating. Any objective debate judge would have long ago declared the skeptics here to have won – not because anybody was “run off” by insults, but because of a complete lack of evidence on your part.
Get over yourself.
No, he quoted you exactly and in context. You looked like a lying fool.
Calling me a Heaven’s gate cult wannabe, is not an insult to my beliefs? Painting an absurd picture of my probably behaviour?
And it doesn’t really matter whether my beliefs stood up to your skeptical scrutiny or not, I still have a right to hold them. Yes, I do understand the rules of the board quite well.
Do you not understand all people have the freedom of religion in this country and you just insulted mine to the worst degree.
Skeptics are outnumbered 99 to 1 in the real world, so it’s not like I am presenting anything new here.
I wonder if Cecil has read this and whether he approves or not?

Doesn’t it take one to know one?
Love
Leroy
might as well be the first…
I know you are but what am I?

Your beliefs, you described them there, seem little different than those of the Heaven’s Gate cult. If you don’t like that, maybe you should re-examine those beliefs.
Absolutely. Nobody has said otherwise. So why are you even bringing it up?
Then why have you whined twice in the last few minutes about those rules when nothing violating the rules has occurred? Either you don’t understand the rules or you do understand them but just wanted to play the victim. Which was it?
Yes, I understand that all people have freedom of religion. I belong to several organizations that fight for just that. Again, nobody has tried to stop you from believing your religion so again I have to wonder why you would bring it up unless it is to (again) try to play the victim.
But do you know what? We also have freedom of speech – which allows me to point out just what I think of your beliefs.
You’re right, but you’re on a message board that (as you’ve been told numerous times) exists to fight the very ignorance that outnumbers us. Just because a lot of people believe in bullshit doesn’t make that bullshit smell any better.
Cecil has shown many times over that he is a skeptic. After all, he’s the one who coined the phrase about fighting ignorance. But frankly, I rather doubt he’d waste his time reading a 15-page thread in which one side (that would be you) repeatedly ignores anything said by the other.
Like I said above, get over yourself.
If you think people are lying, when all they’re doing is quoting you back at yourself, perhaps you should reread your posts and see if what you’ve said is what you meant to say.
You seem to be contradicting yourself. Do you or do you not believe there are psychics? If that’s not the word you wish to use, what do you call John Edward and James van Praagh?
Has it ever occurred to you that the other people on this board are also in the “real world?” Besides, what do the numbers have to do with anything, anyway? Even if 75% of the American public believe in psychics, that doesn’t mean they’re right. Reality doesn’t alter itself to fit majority opinions.
By the way, you did imply in a few different posts, that yo do have psychic “powers,” even if you never explicitly said so.
After David’s post above, it is clear that he believes my kind to be total bullshit.
Thank you David, I know this is no place for me, and if Cecil thinks like you do as you have described then I have been wrong posting here at all.
But you really should label this board for skeptics only, it would save a lot of time and trouble.
The last thing I’d want to do is be caught out lying in this thread, Lekatt, given what a hard time I’ve been giving you over that 
So if that’s what you think I’ve been doing, by all means point out precisely where I’ve lied, and I’ll apologise wholeheartedly.
I’m waiting…
Unsubscribe, maybe?
