From Canada comes a delightful story all about psychics and child abuse. It appears that a “psychic” told someone who works at a school that a student there was being sexually abused. This someone then went out, found the girl he thought was being abused and reported it to her mother and the authorities.
You know, this is the kind of nonsense that can lead to crap like the McMartin Preschool bullshit. In that case a whole lot of perfectly innnocent people were basically destroyed by a whole series of false allegations about sexual abuse.
This is a perfect example of the very real harm “psychics” inflict. These people are at best delusional and mistaken in their abilities; at worst they’re outright liars and frauds, con-artists out to make a buck.
I know I’ve made this point before, but it bears repeating. There are no such thing as psychics. There is no proof of their abilities. They are wrong, wrong, wrong!
