I've watched "Beyond" with James Van Praagh but I've always said that 1) it's real or 2) it's for entertainment and I have no clue which because unless you there and you know the background and can verify that it's not a setup, there is no way a viewer at home will ever know. It's been protrayed that Mr Van Praagh has helped Police Department's solve crimes. I watched one such case and if it was not faked, it was impressive.

O.K., when you talk to a deceased person, on what level does this conversation take place?
"Hello, how are you?" or some other level?

It's very rare that a dead person will actively seek me out. Usually i'm the one that does all the calling.
That really doesnt supprise me!! And as for your "favouritism" towards which war is more benefitical to yourself...goodluck.

If you want you can just add him to your ignore list then you don't even have to be bothered by accidently reading his posts if you find them to be consistently annoying. That is what I do and it saves me significant time when reading a thread. It also keeps me from being tempted to get in an argument with members/trolls that enjoy arguing and being disrespectful to others.

Common sense. Science. Fact. Of course, the key word in your question was "know". So you cant prove it. However the door swings both ways Valley, Can you tell me how you know its true that you do go on somehow after you die? No, you cant. All you have is belief, not proof, sorry. I want to believe that. I want to live forever. But I just cant believe it.

How the deceased conveys it's message varies though. Obviously no body means no tongue, so they can't speak it. They communicate in other ways though.
So your "thinking" this communication?

I've looked through the posts previous to this one and don't see the callous and insensitive post.

Regarding favoritism and which war benefits you the most, at some level don't you think most leaders of countries view war in this manner? I don't approve of this sentiment, but children have never stopped a war that is going to start, ( I don't think I have the benefit of seeing all the posts in this thread for some reason. I'm assuming posts have been removed).

I have a strong Christian faith. When you die you are judged then it is determined where you go.

Heaven or Hell? How about a redo?

What if Earth is Exercise 1, and Exercise 2 is the next simulation to better your spirit? Just because someone flunks Exercise 1 means their education is at an end...

Why do you have to make something simple so complicated?

**Scratches head**

If you "flunk" then there is no redo. Thats the end. Too late. There is no Exercise 2, just your fate (which is determined by what you choose on Earth.)
