Yes Litz, they have not done their research and have revealed their ignorance on the subject. Laughable if not so irritating. Your calmness accentuated their hysterical prejudice.

Wow, well done Litz for remaining so calm under such provocation! Rosie Millard was so rude and aggressive, I was quite shocked - and some of the arguments and analogies she used to try and prove her point were worse than the lowest stadards of tabloid journalism. It's funny also how closed psychologists tend to be towards spiritual reality, despite all that Carl Jung tried to teach them.... lol. I guess they have a sense that if there was more spiritual understanding in our society, they would soon become redundant...! Seema (Hope I got her name right) was really nice and reasonable, without having had any direct experience, she remained open minded, polite and considered. I thought she did a great job too. Mr 'you'd better get used to it' did himself no favours either, lol. I hope the beeb consider doing something that gives the topic the serious attention it actually deserves.

The panel on your show were all so miss guided and closed, science cant prove God exists yet I bet they all go to church, Prophets in the Bible were the early versions of psychics. So many ignorant people do not see the comfort that Psychic and Mediums provide I know we have to charge but most of give so much back as well. Your panel were ignorant and narrow minded.Its time that attitudes changed as there is a need in our world for the comfort Psychics give.

Well yet again those who think they have the right to rubbish other people's beliefs hog the debate and do not even stop to think about it! Other religions are full of strange things that could be dissected under the public eye but that is not the way to treat others. We are all entitled to believe in whatever we choose - Clara F you were right - this was not a balanced debate just a savage butchering of beautiful faith in higher matters.

I was looking forward to this debate, I thought we'd reached an era of open mindedness, respect and finally laid the era of Witch hunting and the Spanish Inquisistion firmly in the past. There wsa NOTHING balanced about that panel. One voice of reason was all that consisted amid that debate from your so called panel of experts, who were quite clearly as skeptic as you can get. The debate was about whether a medium should charge for their services, and whilst I understand you have to delve into what a medium is, to tar them all with the brush of charleton and rogue is nothing short of blatant rail roading and certainly not a debate with integrity. I have been vulnerable many times, I have gone to doctors, psychologists, psychiatrists, mediums and healers. The ONLY solace I have ever received where from the spiritual community. The doctors pumped me with drugs as did the psychiatrists, which enhanced suicidal thoughts as the drugs don't work for me. Not all Anti-Depressants work for everybody, and for me had very terrifying results. This is scientifically proven, yet time and time again, I was prescribed these medicines. The same can be said for the psychologist, therapy can also lead to suicidal attempts, again this is scientifically proven. Your 'experts' should know this. Not once, have I EVER felt the need to take my own life after a reading from a genuine medium. Then again I've gone to the right ones. Not every medium suits every person, and those genuine mediums will not charge for that service if they don't tune into your situation. I have never been refunded from the medical community. Of course, the witch hunters reading this post will think I'm batty, sure I've tried suicide right? Well I'm not, I'm an intelligent girl who can tell if that old chestnut 'cold reading' is happening to me or not. How can a cold reader tell me my dad ate a sheeps head once in front of me? How can a cold reader tell me my ex's family lives at No.17, when they've never met before in their lives? I could go on with proof, but why bother, I'm vulnerable right? Therefore can't judge for myself, right? Of course their are those out their that are not real, the industry should be regulated, but not restricted and certainly not banned. These people call it a gift, as would a surgeon. Both charge and rightly so. Your debate was offensive to intelligent people with open minds everywhere, and I challenge any of those skeptics on your panel to actually sit down with the likes of Litz for a reading, and see then if she's a charleton or not, cos let me tell you she's not. Nor are many many many readers who often and many times offer their services for free.

litz on web cam respected every one gave an honist acurate response to the ? in the time she was given on air. the studio panel talked over each other were closed minded rude ill mannerd people who liked the sound of there own voice rather than debating the ?. mediums should be payed for theyre time for readings. i am happy to pay for mediumship readings.

I was insulted by the comments those people on the sofa made and how closed minded they were. I also felt it was very unfair to have them on their and no one from our profession supporting and standing up for us and what we do. You need to speak to people who have had readings from STRANGERS (mediums) and ask there point of view. Ask if the reading was good, bad or indifferent also ask if they were happy in paying the fee charge, if it was too much not enough or what. At the end of the day it is free will that we are talking about here and they choose to pay the prices the medium ask. If it be free or not great. My job is fulltime and i have bills to pay like everyone else and i would NEVER put down that mans work and say he should not charge for his time!! I would think you have the perfect opportunity to do another slot and be fair this time and get a panel who are on both side of the fence and i would be happy to stand up for spirit and my profession. x x x

It's impossible to justify any area of esoteric practise or belief with those whose religion is science. If the word of spirit has any reality, then that reality is only ever subjective: it is one of personal experience. It is too nebulous in its character to be pinned down in any laboratory. There has been a tradition of shamanism or second sight in all cultures throughout all ages. Shall we now decree that to be illegal and further corral all people into one single, state-sanctioned objective mindset? Or shall we let people explore, make their own mistakes if need be, believe what they want to believe and experience what they want to experience?

unfortunately as usual do to retrains on air time and the lack of an intellectual balance and understanding the subject question was not given a good account as the subject question was expanded thus the end result was a paradox!
