Debaters my ass!

It’s just a name. (with a lowercase “v”) While I do admire many of his ideas and writings, I am definitely not an adherent to all of his beliefs. I make no claim to represent a great mind, his or mine. I’ll leave such extraordinary claims to you.

You know, it’s that kind of crap that makes you look bad. You’ve been intentionally evasive, acknowledged not having read articles you provided as evidence, and now are offering someone else’s comments to bolster your own argument when you know the comments don’t actually support your argument.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

No. But I came here to speak directly to the simple minded pieces of shit that closed out a thread I was interested in.

The other people that are coming in and saying Hi while throwing in useless bullshit are not just innocent bystanders.

The only situation within this thread where I did throw back a sarcastic comment where it wasn’t needed, was with plain jain. Yet her lipo-brain has proven that it should’ve been intentional in the first place.

You’re a lying coward that doesn’t have the integrity to admit it when he’s wrong.

You’ve been asked for peer-reviewed evidence and instead of admitting that there is no evidence for your delusional belief, you run and hide and deflect like a scared child.

You’re an utterly inept and fetid debater and no one thinks you’re anything but.

Are you kidding? You must have a very low opinion of Americans.

You are directly referencing the debate. Everything you said. Prove it.

Everything you said then applies to you if you can’t.

Goddamnit, now you’ve pissed me off. Don’t make me channel my chi and throw a fireball at you.

Hey rich2600, I bet I can not post in this thread longer than you can.

Rich-tard, go away.

Sorry dipshit. You have not provided any peer-reviewed evidence. The only way I can prove it is by quoting every post in that thread. Think about this for a second, you should eventually work out that this is true.
In any case, all you need to do to show what I said is incorrect, is to post the peer-reviewed evidence that is compelling for your bullshit magic healing actually working.

The ball is in your court, dipshit.

I’ve never seen the show Castle - can anyone explain the premise to me?

Lobohan, you asked for a peer reviewed article on magical healing lightning. I didn’t have one. Because the studies we were talking about were reiki. Therefore you are full of shit as always and have just gone up a notch in the idiocy of this thread. Prick.

Well that was easy.

As with all things in life, results count, so I’ll expect some double-blind therapeutic touch studies, where the members of a group of “practitioners” (evenly divided between believers of reiki and nonbelievers) are randomly assigned to members of a group of “patients” (evenly divided between people suffering from various ailments and healthy people), and see what happens.

Years ago there was a comedian who went up on stage during an Oral Roberts revival meeting to shake the evangelist’s hand, and walked off limping. :slight_smile:

I wonder what happens when someone who’s boiling over with inarticulate rage like rich2600 attempts to transmit healing energies to reiki clients? Do they develop a bad set of boils?

Hm, over 6 million hits for Plain Jane. The absolute first thing on the disambiguation page for wiki is:A Plain Jane is a woman who has an average appearance. It can also mean an object that is unadorned or unembellished. And a personal attack.

And not every single blind person can manage the whole echolocation trick. IF you bothered to read that wiki, people have to be specially trained in how to do it, it is not a born innate talent. By reading it, you will see that most people seem to have discovered it by accident.

LOL pot calling the kettle black.

They are indeed the bane of my existence in MMORPGs, back when I was a GM you would not believe how frequently the ban hammer came out in the summer.

Yet another ad hominem attack.

And yet another ad hominem attack.

How about me next?

I have a reiki practitioner ticket, I claim that as far as I can tell it is all placebo effect. No ad hominem attack on me?

sniffles at the thought that she might be invisible … .

Thank you =)

People choose user names for a lot of reasons, he may not worship Voltaire …

Those ignorant members are the mOderators, they get to operate the ban hammers around here.

Until the mods shut this thread down and he opens another one.

Again, those simpleminded pieces of shit are the moderators, with banhammers.

Heh.

Im waiting for him to either trash me, or the ban hammers to come out.

Really? You’re expecting that?

I’m sorry. You evidently aren’t smart enough to understand things said plain. Reiki is magic. It is an attempt to show that bullshit non-existent forces and wishful thinking can cure people of sickness.

Reiki is a bunch of dim, gullible morons convincing themselves they have mystic healing powers. Gullible morons like you.

Noted best-selling mystery author Richard Castle retires his long time character and begins a new string of novels. The protagonist of the new series is a police detective, and Castle uses his friendship with the Mayor to get positioned to follow along police detective Kate Beckett and her team so he can get a feel for writing police work.

As it happens, they work well and compliment each other and continue to fight crime under the flimsy excuse of Castle doing research for subsequent novels.

I’m a big Fillion fan. Does he maintain the same rakish charm as he has in his other roles? What about the supporting cast - any standouts?

Here’s an interesting report on Reiki and its practitioners. Worth the read.
