It is not a psychic ability and is actually done using the power of God. Obviously you don't see people who can truly do it flaunt it the way the phonies do. Healing by Faith is done when the person truly believes that God will heal AND if God wills it. People forget that no one can do it on their own ability, only by the power of God. I can't stand to see someone use that for selfish gain. Healing by Faith does exist and I have seen it at work. It is not a psychic ability and is actually done using the power of God.

Not sure if it's the same as dowsing, but I have used diving rods to find a buried water source and it worked pretty well. James Randi’s pretty interesting.

My grandmother was a homeopath, but didn't work in the way that is shown on the clip. I have seen my gran making this stuff most of my life. Gran was a lecturer at Sydney Uni up until her death. Her medications were always locked away because they were concentrated, not diluted, and most were poisonous. Doctors near where she lived would send their patients to her, with a diagnosis, so she could make the medications. She never diagnosed anyone herself (except for minor illnesses), never told anyone not to use the medications as directed by their doctors, but she had to know everything that the patient was taking so that there wasn't any side effects (some homeopathy preparations can negate medications, others can kill when taken with other medications). If the way my gran operated was a fraud, I very much doubt that Sydney University would have had her as a lecturer until she was well into her seventies. She always told us that homeopathy works, but that it can't work for everything, which is the same for conventional medicine. She said that they both work and that they work best when both she and the doctor knew what the other was doing. My grandfather had a kidney operation in his sixties, use my grans homeopathy instead of a general, was awake during the surgery, and left the hospital two weeks earlier than the surgeon expected. She also used the same preparation for herself when she had varicose veins removed. From what I know from my gran, the "HOMEOPATHY" in the video is nothing like what my gran did. It sounded like someone trying to sell snake oil. As with the rest of the list, there's a sucker born every minute. Homeopathy shouldn’t be on the list.

After placing his hand above my mum's (but not touching it) my mum did say she could feel some warmth. BUT Later on we just laughed, obviously the body heat coming from the guy's hand had nothing to do with it - he coulda just shoved his hands down his pants and then put it near my mum's palm... weirdo.. they were so painful to watch, especially the telekineses one, he was just wobbling his arms around haha
