Some Thoughts on Spirits and Mediumship

[T'ai Chi]

Why do spirit mediums always seem to be adults?

Why can't spirits use computers to contact the living, but can go through other types of matter (people)?

Has one medium ever claimed to have contacted a spirit and the same time another medium claimed to have contacted that same spirit?

Why did NASA call its new Mars vehicle the Spirit?

What do spirits exactly do wherever they are?

What is in a spirit that allows it to remember who it knew while on Earth?

Do spirits of people who were evil while on Earth exist?

What is the best way to provide evidence for a spirit existing?

Probably because adults make better cold readers.

Well, computers make even worse cold readers than children.

I don't know, why?

They probably thought it was a cool name

There are almost countless ways, depending on what form the comunication with the spirit is supossong to be taking. If JE could for example consistently tell the name of the spirit, and what it's relation with the sitter was, under tested circumstances that would be fairly conclusive. As in "I'm getting your gradmother, whose name was Katherine Smith but her maiden name was Greens". Unfortunatly JE can't do that.

There are claims being made that spirits *are* using computers to contact the living. See the following links:

Do you mean that a spirit was claimed to be speaking through two mediums simultaneously, or do you mean that the same spirit manifested through more than one medium, but not exactly at the same instant? The famous "cross correspondences" case would be an example of the latter, wherein an alleged communicator delivered part of a message through one medium and delivered other parts of the message through other mediums.

What is in a spirit that allows it to remember who it knew while on Earth?
After a person dies and his spirit leaves his body, the person's memory is uploaded into the spirit, where it maintains its coherence by means of spiritu-memorons. Eventually physicists will discover these particles in a cloud chamber experiment.
