Well, I don't actually hate Sylvia, it's more like jealousy, I suppose. I just wish I can think of a way to dupe thousands of people out of money by telling them things about themselves that they already know, or totally stupid things that people will beleive just because I say so, like those white flashes you may see when you sneeze are Angels or the ringing in your ears is your spirit guide or other such nonsense. Maybe I can tell people that the static "snow" on your TV is aliens trying to contact you, and you need to send me money to find out what they are saying. I'll be rich! |

Hey, dumb luck doesn't happen to the smart, hence the name. Don't we all wish we could pull off a "get rich quick" scheme and make it work until we had racked up millions? Just think of struggling through life and working honestly as not stooping to her level. ^_~ |

do you guys even know what your talking about? have you read any of sylvias books? have you been to any of her lectures? do you know exactly what her beliefs are? Or are you just looking at her website and making stereotypical generalizations about psychics? |

brumans, have you ever read her books, been to her lectures, know her exact beliefs and are sure you're not making steretoypical assumptions about the "misunderstood psyhic"? |

Sylvia Browne is a profoundly bang-on woman as far as her clairvoyant ability to see beyond life. Her intuitions are very keen. I think her only downfall, as is the downfall of any person with psychic powers, is that she has tried to make predicitions to the public for the sake of the public, and that gets one into having to guess more often then not, so that it's not always intuition at work. |

She is a phony, plain and simple. Let me get this straight: It is not her fault if her web site removes predictions that didn't come true? It's not her fault? That's just passing the buck. And no, I haven't read any of her stupid books, I wouldn't waste the time. I do read messages on her derranged fan club message board, and those that have read her books complain that she just keeps repeating the same things over again, since she has run out of material. But I have read numerous transcripts of her show on that worthless news channel CNN with that putz Larry King, and it is obvioius that she just reads from a script when someone calls in with a question. Example: CALLER: "My mother died last year. Is she OK?" SYLVIA: "She's just fine, Hon. She is behind you, and she misses you, everything is OK in heaven" That pretty much sums up what she does. Her "keen psychic ability" Yeh, right. And don't forget this "great psychic" predicted the next pope would be black. |

If Sylvia is geniune, then she'll have no problem keeping to her word and getting tested by James Randi. She agreed to it, and has backed out with incredibly lame excuses. What are we to think? |

I would SERIOUSLY, SERIOUSLY recommend that you read her book: Life on the Other Side, because you are completely glossing over many important details about her. I refuse to argue any further unless you read her book, because until you do, I am afraid you don't know what you're talking about. You have formed a bias about her, perhaps out of jealousy, as earlier posts in this thread indicate. I'm going to honestly challenge you to read that one book of hers, and put aside your conviction that she is a fraud. Even if you don't believe it, at least you will have MORE DETAILS about her to consider. |

Unless you've read her book, you don't know her whole story. However, I do agree with what this argument is pointed at, and that is the problem that comes up as soon as someone with abilities starts making claims. Psychic abilities are best left as subtle expressions, and should never become commercial, on-demand things. Mrs. Browne's case, and most other "famous" psychics is an example of this tragedy. It is so sad to see such a wonderful, genuine woman misportrayed, and all rooted in her primary mistake: becoming a public spectacle. Some people just don't have it in them to look beyond and see into a person's true essence; its for this reason that this world is the way it is. |

Anelior, so you think that Sylvia has some kind of psyschic gift? Are you refering to the time that a caller from Texas, who was asking Sylvia about her missing daughter? Sylvia told her that her daughter was sold into white slavery in Japan, she then gave a fictional town in Japan. The caller's daughter was eventually found dead in Texas, no thanks to Sylvia.--Or maybe you refer to the time that she told a caller that her mother is dead (Sylvia was positive of this), and the caller was just talking to her mother, that she couldn't be dead, and told Sylvia she was going to call her (mother) and get back to her (Sylvia)? This is psychic ability? Please let me know where and when Sylvia has made an actual, real prediction that came true, and I don't mean something obvious like predicting the pope would die or there will be a hurricane in Florida.---BTW your website is closed. Thanks for the useless link, |

I have mixed feelings on her. I have read several of her books and I guess she is a psychic so to speak. But some of her predictions are kind of out there even for me. I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't believe everything she says, as with all psychics it's with a grain of salt. But one thing did bother me about her, is the cost of her sessions, lectures ect ... Just a phone consultation is in the 400 $$ range. I have to say for someone who is hell bent on helping humanity, she sure is limiting the ones she's helping by chargeing that much. (Helping only those who can afford her!!) |

My website is not closed, or else it would say on there: "this site is closed". It is being developed. The main purpose of the site is to advertise my writing, and right now, as I have a book I am trying to sell, it tells you about it and how to buy it. I could have completely closed the site, in which case, yes, the link would have been useless. However, I have left it open, serving its basic function for the time being, while the extra parts are being developed. |

By the way, Blue Dreams, Sylvia charges $700.00 for a phone reading. (check her web site if you don't beleive me,:sylvia.org/home/readings.cfm) Her son charges only $400.00. Which of course means he is only 57% as correct as she is, and if she is right only half the time, then he is right only about 28% of the time. Just thought I'd let you know. Oh, if you go to one of her seminars, you can have her answer a question for the blue-light special price of $100.00. Here is an example - Audience member ($100 poorer):"Sylvia, is my missing brother dead?" Sylvia -"Yes, now cough up the Franklin, sucker" -well, maybe not exactly like that, but close |

Anelior, I see what you're trying to say. |

I imagine she may have started out, in her own mind, with a purely spiritual motive, but, as is usually the case when the "demon" of fame comes along, her services have been corrupted. It's unfortunate, really, she has a profound ability to reach out and touch people, at least she once did. From the sounds of it, she has lost that a great deal, if she's behaving the way she is now, i.e. on talk shows, etc. That's not the Sylvia Browne I remember. |

In my opinion Sylivia Browne used to be um... how do you say this....legit to a point. She had empathy and that made a lot of people trust her and I don't deny that she was able to reach people (now it seems like reaching people means only their wallets) As far as her physic abilities go I have no comment, as someone said before actions (I guess in her case it would be foretellings) speak louder than words. But in recent years she has definitely become obsessed with money making and the media attention. |
