Is the reason why the psychic phenomena is under so much scrutiny because of people like her?


Only partly. Mostly, I think, they are used and abused by sceptics to provide "overwhelming evidence" against paranormal phenomena. They point to people like her and then conclude - or (mis)lead people to the conclusion - that the phenomenon itself is bunk.

But she is definitely the most notorious of all the "psychics".
She should be very ashamed of herself.
Why do people still believe in her?
I am surprised that ANYONE ever believed in her. Her methods are very transparent.
Those who do believe in her, I think, it must be mostly because of the time and energy they had invested in the belief that she does communicate with the departed.
If they reject her, then they would have to reject the comforting "certitude" she had given them.

I think the irony of it all is that the "other side", while very individualised, is likely much more glorious than Sylvia could even imagine, let alone tell people about it.


P.S. Oh right, you asked about other such scammers. I have only seen (on the TV, of course) James van Praagh, that English lady (Rosemary Althea or Altea, I think?), and John Edward. They were all interviewed by Larry King, a long time ago.
I am not sure about Edward, but I suspect he is sort of fraudish... And Van Praagh, too.
In my family, we used to watch those Larry King interviews regardless of the hour (they were shown around 3-4 A.M. in Europe) because the next day we would have such a hearty laugh over them, especially Sylvia.
But those poor callers inquiring after their loved ones spoiled the fun for us... (:

A star from me.

Such a fraud, in my opinion.

Remember how she got her wide behind handed to her on C2C?

And on CNN?

It's one thing to go around writing horoscopes or reading palms, but entirely reprehensible to falsely claim someone's loved one is dead.

Wow. That was mean-spirited of Sylvia Brown.

So she contradicts herself. She says she loves everyone but she says she knew those miners died.

And I can't even imagine how horrible the families felt because of her--their pain was utterly needless.

Oh man you wasted your money on her book, and spent your time and energy to come to the understanding she was a scam???
Looks like she already got you, and so many others! She has already taken from you what she wanted and moved onto the next vitcum.

Time after time I come into these threads and give my warnings about this quack!
Its a shame that she is empowered by this notion of wonderment!

People try to give her the benifet of the doubt, and they do research and try their best to see if what she says is real..

You see she preys upon your hopes and dreams.. And once you have learned she is nothing but a fraud its to late!!! She has already consumed that small part of you and is replaced by another one..

I happen to try to see the best of people.. And yes.. I once befell into the same energy trap as you once did.
But its your job now as you are doing to make sure more dont fall into her web!!

She is a spider. her totem energy is that of an insect! The one who devours! A pest! And she is proclaimed threw TV, and her books.

And more and more people fall into her web everyday..
As more and more people are having a tuff time threw this life, and just want some magical answer. And This Brown stain can claim what ever she wants.. But I dont see how she can look at her haggard face in the mirror..
When I see that woman.. I want to barf!!! and its more of an energy thing presay her bad looks..
She looks like an old evil HAG!!! Not to mention her energy is not soothing to me.. And its my point of veiw..
Feel what you wish! But we here on onto Brown deeply.

The vibe here on ATS is that she is
I would love to find a true beliver.. and have an outright Debate with them on Brown.
Im waiting.. So if you are true to feeling she is for good, and she is 100% right please let me know.. I will make arrangments to set up a debate!

Ive been waiting for this one, and would be happy to fight for justice on this topic!!

Thanks OP for comming around.. And no worries, I did the research and reading too.. but didnt take long before I knew I was duped!

Her book..
Mystical Traveler: How to Advance to a Higher Level of Spirituality
Should be more like.. How Brown advances to a higher level of material things! While you are left sitting there empty. And have 20$ less in your pocket! Not to mention you will never get that time back that you spent.
I went over this before in my post.. But she just stole YOUR energy!
SHE TOOK a part of you and helped herself to a higher level here!

She works a dark magic.. and is one of the higher standing Queens of manipulation in this world.. Watch out!

And on a level at who I am I fight VS this HAG! Shes not a witch, or a medium.. She is a VAMPIRE HAG!!! who uses illusions, and mindcontrol to feed off her prey.
She might not be human either... But dont quote me on that one. Sure her body is human, her mind is human, but her energy is NOT !
This goes beyond our 5 sense world.. I will not explain any further.
If you wish to know more U2 me.. As what I have to say would only strenghten her in to many ways that I would want to some.. while others it would leave her exposed and helpless.. Where is Antar when I need her?
She will understand what Im saying!! Im going to focus on Antar.. And she will show up in this thread later by chance.

She hasn't taken that "small part of me" yet. I realize she's a scam but I do think that the psychic phenomena and the mystical phenomena still is real.

You don't need to worry about me... I haven't spiraled down into that "i need to find out what she's doing is true or not" phase yet I know that what she says is completely false.

The way I judge her is that she has a temperment about her that leads her to believe what she believes so blindly that she is so manipulative of other people to try to get them to understand her truth. She wants to force her truth onto other people.

I know that there is a psychic phenomena and a mystical phenomena but I'm going to be looking for credible people's research within the parapsychology field.

It looks like Sylvia Brown got wind of the fact that everyone is psychic and wanted to make money off of it and convert people to Christianity.

Who am I to tell you what she and didnt take from you on another plane that you can not see touch or taste. I just know that our 5 sense world only allow us so much information. And Im glad to see everyone on the up and up. And wanting to more, and still having faith in what is out there. Because it is out there! And it lays dormant within us ALL!
Everyone one of us have this within us! Brown just puts to much self importance upon herself! And that is a dark path.
I wish you luck on your path. As what I know is for me only. I do not share my occult knowledge with others, and its a personal and up lifting exp. Everyone must come to terms with it in their own time!
And no hand should ever force or try to explain something this deep.
The human lang. does not have the words for this yet.
But someday we will. When we learn magic and the unknown is nothing more than highly advanced technology! Magic is a word people use for something we dont understand the base root of.

Like a mage who would hurl a fireball from his hands! It must be magic!
But the mage knows differently.
