It makes me laugh when all these celebrities pay that Derek Akora **** loads of money to go round to their posh houses to warn off any ghosts and dead relatives...

Whenever i need to get rid of all the spirits in my house...i just invite my irish neighbours over..

They can say 5 or 6 things and most people will dismiss the 5 incorrect statements but will vividly remember the correct one. My GF went to see and he mentioned a wedding or an engagement, she was over the moon and thought I was going to propose at wihich point a looked at her hand and she had a ring (not a wedding/engagement but he wasn't to know that) on her ring finger, mystery solved. She then looked rather embarrassed, but still claims they are real.

his book is worth a read, actually teaches you a few decent memory tricks to help you remember stuff, i can still remember what i read in one of his example lists, and i have not seen the book since christmas

I have always found that when people come out with unecessary and unpleasant insults about religion and those who follow it, that they are frightened of what might just be the truth!

I agree: just making unpleasant comments about religious beliefs is a bit, well, the term 'empty provocation' springs to mind.

BUT we all have to have a sense of humour about these things, i.e. I don't think that religion should be excluded from jokes etc.. hence the vid

Family Guy actually does jokes about religion very well.
