    At some point he starts losing credibility and is only preaching to the choir. Anyone that has that much invested in being right cannot be objective. Not saying I believe most of this stuff, but if Jesus appeared with holes in his hands and flicked him on the forehead, it's still in Randi's best interest to deny it happened.

    Just another form of entertainment wrapped up in the guise of being an intellectual pursuit.

    A rather broad and non-specific conjecture, if I might say so.

    A test is a test is a test.

    The test proves the validity of the paranormal claim. So, what does Randi's attitude have to do with an objective test?

    I love being entertained by 'magic', it's good clean fun, as long as you don't take it seriously...and lose an eye !

    I also don't see why Randi's attitude should be in the equation at all. I'm sure he does make some people furious with him, he's probably one of those who 'rub people the wrong way', when he proves them wrong.

    I'm no scientist, but, if I figure out how someone is being fooled...and can prove it -- it's valid.

    Like Terry said, "A test is a test is a test."
