The author of reporter.blackraiser.com has written an excellent article. You have made your point and there is not much to argue about. It is like the following universal truth that you can not argue with: It’s possible to find a soulmate on the internet… but not within a 3000 mile radius Thanks for the info.

How easily people are duped. Magicians who can bend spoons and perform the same parlor tricks as Geller are a dime a dozen. The masked magician can do the same tricks as Geller. Although I don’t agree with Randi or Geller because they’re both wrong to some degree…people need to wake up and get their heads out of the occultic and mystery world which will only plunge them into the broad path of destruction.

So… Comments you don’t like just sit in “awaiting moderation” limbo forever, huh?

I guess that says a lot about the strength of your argument, if it can’t take any negative comments.

“In other words, a magnet small enough to hide in someone’s hairline can’t possibly make a compass needle shift as much as it does in the Uri Geller video.” It’s a shame you didn’t even try to verify that statement, or many others you made. This video shows how easy it is to use a tiny magnet to deflect a compass:

If one is interested, you can see how James Randi originally discussed Geller’s compass deflecting trick here:
http://www.randi.org/jr/2007-01/011907tam.html#i2

You will note that nowhere does Randi talk about “fingertip swelling” or pulling it from Geller’s hairline. He followed that up with another article showing how easy the trick was here:
http://www.randi.org/jr/2007-02/020209morebrowne.html#i8
(You might want to read the previous item in that issue of SWIFT as well.)

Obviously your source “Oscar” is no expert on magnets.

So, most of the “claims” Mr. Kapnistos attacks were not claims that Randi actually made. This is called a “strawman argument”, where you put easily falsified words in your opponent’s mouth, and then attack that, rather than their actual argument.

If you are interested, Mr. Randi discusses many of the various errors made in Mr. Kapnistos’ above article here:

Judge for yourself who makes more sense.
