The James Randi thing is very interesting. But have also heard some say that he is disingenuous in terms of setting out to discredit things. Personally I like his challenge for all the people out there who claim this, that and the other 'powers' etc. You would think it would be easy enough to score the million! I think now he has just turned on professional charlatans and no one else can enter the test.

And the pure light within you,
Guide your way on.

Believing is not seeing specially when we are talking about people that intends to intimidate others by saying to them that they are going to hell or gona lose their souls etc
Being sceptical is a necesity in this age of disinformation IMHO
I always check and double check and only follow my own intuition
