Hello to all friends here.. We are all aware about the fortune telling of those fortune teller. They are all psychic as we know and we tend to go to them if there is thing that we wanted to know immediately. Like if there is something is missing or if we would like to know something about the person we are concerned. As for me, i dont know if i really believe but they have the power to know things,, I want to convince myself for sometimes especially if i am in trouble. How about you friends here.... do you believe?? or consult with them...? Thank you and have a happy day...

I believe in prediction base on scientific research and data, and some empirical evidences come with it; like the case of meteo collsion with earth, another great flood on earth etc.. but not those predictions from fortune teller or psychic telling you tommorrow you will strike a jackpot in lottery, or meet the greatest lover in your life.

Hi lampar, Do not you think you have contradicted your own opinion? You said that you believe prediction only when there is scientific back up. So when there are scientific back ups they are hypothesis and all scientific study starts with hypothesis and reasonings. prediction in such case is near soothsaying.

Hello! I don`t think going to those fortune tellers is a good idea, it`s just modern way of life. No one can know his/her future which is point of living. If we could predict next day, DAMN we would be hell rich. About those fortune tellers, Many people go to them, even i don`t know why would they ever believe to such a silly thing. Just remember you forge your own destiny and future. Have a nice life mate ! :D

Though I am aware that humans can communicate with the spirit world, I never look to them for tales about my future, since I know the spirits they contact do not have my best interest in mind. Besides, if a spirit wanted to get in touch with me, it will find me. I believe and trust God. I read my Bible and trust what God says about me.

Hi mods, Prediction is the ability in one who knows what would follow next. Look at the paradox - at a time you say that if anything perfect is there, that has to be god - and now you believe in predictions or soothsayer is no lesser than playing the semi god. Everything is subject to changes. The world phenomenon too changes when pressure is more on the Nature. As you have raised the question you believe in serpent. And finally, I do not believe in prediction or hypothesis.

If one believed in prediction, then it is believing that everything is written down, and you don't have free will, you are just doing what is written for you to do, like the character in a book. I believe people have free will, and nothing is written.

I don't believe in predictions. A friend was once making money doing palm readings, tarot card reading, etc.. and he was the one who told me that it's just a form of another con. Con artists nowadays are pretty much smarter than before. I don't think I'll believe them ever and I think they should just get a decent job.

I just don't believe predictions can be that trustworthy and even if they do, a thing or two still is going to be wrong from the predicted outcome. More easy to predict would have to be human behavior because what the person will be in the future could be known in his present mindset. If a person today cannot control his spending habits, it is safe to predict he would be broke in the not so distant future. If a person is traumatized by cockroaches it is almost certain she will be screaming at the sight by one later, etc.

Do fortune tellers still exist? I thought they were people in the movies or something. I reckon I wouldn't believe them though, how does touching my hand or choosing a tarot card going to tell m anything about my future. I find that really creepy and eerie too, like how did the fortune teller, a complete stranger know about my past and my future life? I wouldn't want to know about my future because it was predicted as bad, I would worry. Let life play out, because life is unpredictable. I don't believe horoscopes either, they're fun to read but where did the predictions come from? How do stars predict how I will live my life?

hm.. probably they really have the power of knowing things mods. there are a lot of times that their predictions were right but equal times that their predictions did not happen. there are times when we just lose hope that we tend to ask for their help. well, there's nothing wrong with it. my friends often do that and i respect them.

Well, i don't believe fortune telling,because they are just human and not the life owner.. They do not know what the future of each people life,they just do it for money and business.. They are not perfect of everything,so they are not the true..Only God know what the future of each people...Satan may use it,and that is not from God....
