    Not according to this threads replys, "Most" would disagree with you

    And explain why a dream 5 years before an event, or even the day before an even could possibly be a sign or a warning of an upcoming event if they leave 5 years between dream and event, or in my case, not tell me where or when that event was gonna happen?

    And btw, my dream vs the real event, completely different parts of the country


    Anyway, not arguing with you about a fantasy / scam / fake

    Like I said, you have no idea which dreams are prophetic. I had one a while ago where I and my friend were walking through a park and found a small white puppy that appeared to be lost. I picked it up and we walked on. Then we saw a much larger dog that looked just like the pup running towards us. I thought to myself "uh oh, we may have a problem here". The larger dog came up to us and looked up and said "'Ello Guv'na". In the dream, I just said, "oh cool, a talking dog" and it seemed perfectly natural. I do not expect that one to come true .:)

    You are the only one that has commented on my posts. I would hardly call that most. I also don't see where the amount of time between the dream and the actual event makes any difference at all. I never said they were warnings. They are just insights into the future and I never said they could be useful in any way. That is why the people who claim they can see things they are asked about are total frauds.

    It's much more likely don't you think, that a dream would lead you to be in a certain situation than the dream prophesying upcoming events?

    If you are susceptible to the BS that is Psychic abilities, then it is highly likely you are easily influenced into making decisions based on dreams you have had or suggestions the dreams play on your subconscious - thus ending up in a situation you then suddenly think "Oh I dreamed about this, I must be psychic!"

    You said:

    Maybe to you, but to most they would be called portents.


    Read the thread, MOST do not believe in this BS

    Anyway, me, out/

    The people that tend to believe in that sort of thing are usually those that have trouble understanding things such as probability. The human mind tries to make sense of what we see, as such it makes connections between events. Coincidence therefore becomes premonition for some, when in reality it's a statistical possibility coming to pass.

    Well this thread is getting interesting and fast.

    If that's your metric i'll chime in, it's total nonsense and you're not a seer.

    I never claimed to be a seer. Seers are fakes

    Total nonsense. How can I prove that I had a certain dream? It just doesn't work that way. Randi has only shown that the people who claim they can do it at will are fakes, and I agree. Nobody has proven that the ability does not exist in some form.

    Seer, fortune teller, visions, future sight, same nonsense, just a different spin on the intentions.

    Admittedly you don't seem to be extorting people for money or leading a gullible mass of followers.

    So we just need to take your word on it that you have psychic powers?

    Gotcha.

    Just thought I'd let you know, there's a teapot orbiting the Sun somewhere between the Earth and Mars. ;)

    So it's a statistical probability that I dreamed about my daughter having a seizure and being unconscious and having another child present who hadn't even been conceived yet is a statistical probability? I think not. Seeing a trivial thing like an orange sign on the front of a convenience store counter showing the current price of a pack of cigarettes being 71 cents when at the time of the dream they were like 50 cents and then later working in that store and seeing that exact same sign is a statistical probability? Again, I think not. Dreaming of sitting in a sailboat in a cove talking with a couple you have never seen when you have never been in a sailboat at the time but years later, you are a member of a sailing club and find yourself in the same boat, in the same cove (Honeymoon Harbor in the Bahamas), talking with the same people about the same things is a statistical probability? No way. Those are just three examples. There are about a dozen more that have happened over the past 40 years. Like I said, they are few and far between but have nothing to do with coincidence or probability.

    Pretty much everything you've listed could be put down in some way to exactly what I've stated. If I knew the exacts of your life it would be pretty easy to explain it to you, but as I don't I'll try to avoid making assumptions. As I said, the mind tries to make connections between events. You can rationalise whatever you like to some degree, that doesn't make it real.
