You have this whole premise wrong.

Please do prove you love your family. That would be an amazing accomplishment as no one to date has been able to prove this scientifically.
I can prove that i love my family by showing you the actions that i take to ensure their happiness and well being. This can be even be quantified, charted on a graph, and compared to others to make a long term, large demographic, data set. Proving that i love my family, relative to other data sets.
Not sure why you think that love and care can't be quantified.
Does taking your own journey mean that you can throw away proper methodology or ignore everyone elses work? I guess it can but you are starting the process over and unless you use the proper methods you are wasting your time.
i guess James said your weren't psychic? He is prob right.

You're totally full of crap, as you would know if you bothered watching. I guess it's easier to judge a book by its cover though, eh? Willful ignorance makes it so much easier being a pseudo-skeptic doesn't it.
Shouldn't you be at JREF, suckling off Randis tit?

The argument could be made you do all these things for self preservation and gratification. My Dog seems to love me a great amount, every day she's happy to see me, every day she wants to be by me. All her actions say she loves me and yes I personally believe she does, but the argument can be made she is only doing it for the food and the play. (who can resist those evolutionary created puppy dog eyes?)
I do great things for my mother, but I can't prove to you that these actions somehow relate to this "love" feeling. It's all conjecture. For all you know, you could be a programmed human living in a simulated Universe with no freewill at all.
Anyway, going off topic a bit, I'm sure you understood my point even thought you acted like you didn't.

Randi says no one is psychic, and he's definitely wrong. The problem is, fools are falling for his MDC publicity stunt, and fools are letting him do their thinking for them, instead of independently learning.
Why don't you go regurgitate his dogma somewhere else.

How is it a scam? People could just prove they are psychic without involving the MDC and they could still be millionaires. Persinger has not proven anything. It is all just claims, speculation and hypotheticals. He admits as much.

"You can actually earn $1,000,000 if you can prove it exists and your not just using your imagination to pretend" is a reference to the MDC, which is a Randi scam. You're his parrot.
If you want proof of psi (which you don't, or you would have found it already) all you have to do is watch the vid I posted. Watch it and then go give Harribance and Persinger your phony money and show.

Obviously, you still haven't watched the vid. I think skeptics are allergic to evidence or something.
Here, I'll make it easy for you, Mr lazy. Just watch from the 28 minute mark for the section on Harribance.

I'm watching your video now. Persinger is showing his lack of sensible methodology. First off he is begging the question. He creates the question after he gets the data.
