Top medium quits saying, ‘I was deluded’
'James Byrne’s style of mediumship ensured “sold out” notices outside all the large venues at which he regularly demonstrated for almost 30 years.
He even filled the London Palladium – following in the psychic footsteps of the late Doris Stokes. He made TV appearances, was a regular on radio phone-in shows, and wrote a book with John Sutton about his life and work: The Psychic World of James Byrne. He has shared the platform in Spiritualist churches and public halls with other mediums and has even been dubbed “the medium’s medium”. But those days are over. Incredibly, Byrne has not only turned his back on Spiritualism, claiming that he has been deluding himself and others, but intends exposing other psychics and their “tricks”. Ironically, Byrne made headlines in 1997 when a group of clergymen tried unsuccessfully to get a local council to ban his demonstration of mediumship at Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre.'

Does this mean members of HBC will now apologize and admit collective guilt for aiding and abetting a fraud on local citizens by allowing this charlaton use of a publicly owned building :confused:

I think it likely that Byrne saw this coming.

That's why I put it in the Ossy thread. The only connection he has to the area is that he made national headlines, when some local churches tried to stop his appearance at the Civic Theatre. |
Re: Top medium quits saying, ‘I was deluded’
I do agree on the nonsense part and the Church part. Neither can be proven so if you ban one as being a con then you should ban the other for the same reason.
