We invented the ZERO. We taught the world how to count. So, stuff it.
So you peaked really early. What have "you" done since then?

My bet is that you haven't.
You won your bet. And the first thing I'd advise anyone suffering from such would be to see a doc, and not use occult.

Why is it so difficult for you to understand that I am "merely" stating that people perform black magic and successfully harm other people - family and political enemies?

You have never heard of this, probably. But who on earth will flatly refuse to acknowledge anything which they have never heard of before because they never had the opportunity to come across it

Am I the close minded bugger here? Perhaps not

I've heard of it, and I've discounted it's validity every single time because there are logical, factual, scientific reasons AND PROOF for everything I state. Whereas, when you blithely wave your little hand and pooh-pooh hard science in favor of fantasy and fairy tales, you have not one whit of proof to back up your incredible claims.

Logic and fact will always trump fantasy and superstition.

Did anybody bother to watch the video? Still pictures of a girl with anorexia with noises from the exorcist as a sound track. A silly parlor trick involving frosted glass on a pantry door and then a bunch of strange sounds with other still pictures.
I want the 5 minutes of my life that I wasted watching this back.

Let's do this. How many victims of black magic have you come in contact with in real life?

How many black magic practitioners have you met?

Please step outside of the tv and google, get real

Well, Black Magic works....if the vicitim believes in it. If you look at it in that respect, then Tony is right.

No, black magic does not work. The mind of the believer is what is working against them, not any magic. People are freakin' gullible.

None, because it doesn't exist. I have met people who are victims of their own minds and ignorant superstitions though.

One that I know of, and I actually challenged her to put a curse or spell on me to prove her "powers". Guess what? It didn't work. Why? BECAUSE IT'S NOT REAL.

The depth of ignorance that still remains in so many, even in this age of science appalls me. I don't know how they continue to justify their outrageous superstitious beliefs to themselves.
