You seem to have a conflict between your self image and your true image. You just can't stand to admit you might be wrong. In the 12 years I have been on the forums I can't recall when you admitted you were wrong. There might have been one time but even that I think you refused to admit it. Prostitue the intellect to defend the ego. That's one of the many reasons you "can't dowse any better than random chance". I guess that's why you hide behind the alias'.
I know you are a perfectionist. I said years ago this is a bad way to be. With your bitter attitude towards anyone who disagrees with you, you can never be happy until you change. Growth and change are what keeps you moving in the right direction. You don't get that without an open mind. You don't get change until you are sick and tired of the way you are. You criticize me for reading books yet you praise yourself and Carl for the same thing. You can't have it both ways. Besides, books are only a start. Every teacher knows this. If you don't back it up with experience, the knowledge is worthless. |

I was raised by a perfectionist skeptic. I was a much more hard-core skeptic than anyone on any forum I have been to. I still am very much the doubting Thomas. Until I see it with my own eyes and touch it, I have serious doubts.
And as for a formal education, I think the vast majority of students are nothing more than lab animals who have been trained to run a maze. They can't think for themself. And if you don't understand what it means to "Prostitute the intellect to defend the ego", the you aren't even trying to learn. I'll be the first to admit that I have been guilty of this a few times. You can't dowse with that attitude because your left brain gets in the way. There's nothing difficult to understand here. You can't think and dowse at the same time. I've read many places that animals use dowsing. I guess they know more about it than most skeptics and they obviously are better dowsers than even some people who have dowsing experience. Don't play dumb, you just refuse to admit that the MFD signal line is real. Even dogs can sense it. I even sense some envy here. If you really want to learn you have to be humble. That means you have to practice for several weeks. Your brains won't carry you through on this one enough to learn in twenty minutes, so why don't you just admit it to yourself. Everyone else already knows it. |

People who rely on their intellect are just crippled when it comes to dowsing. If you question the rod, it's like the story in the Bible where the woman looks back as they are escaping and she turns to a pillar of salt. That's what that story is about, the skeptic mind trying to control things that are not for them to control.
Same with MFD, some people say it's only dowsing. Well, it is dowsing to an extent, the person still has to sense the signal line, but they don't have to do the discrimination. You do have to be able to use the rods. I can't count how many times I have tried to reason it. It can't be here, I don't believe it. That's the intellect trying to control things. |

BTW, if your MFD signal line is real, what do you suppose it looks like? What is it composed of? Have you ever dug down to examine a signal line? I guess you've had a lot of experience with signal lines, so I look forward to your explanation.

I just did a web search on this story of Lot's wife. Some religions have a much different rendition of it and that was not my intent.

Truffles sell for more than gold by the gram. Maybe we should stop hunting for gold and start looking for truffles. Do you think the Ranger Tell will have a new model that finds only truffles after everybody starts hunting them? Best wishes, J_P |

I always thought pigs were used to hunt them. Hey, they are intelligent. I bet someone could train one to detect a signal line. They can dig, too.

I still don't know what causes a dog to seek out an MFD signal line. That one guy said his dog stuck his nose in the air as if it was sniffing but he said he couldn't see it's nostrils moving. Then the dog would walk over and lie down on the line as if it already knew the exact line. I know dogs have a homing instinct so this could be a magnetic sense. I've read that birds can see the mangnetic lines, so maybe a dog can, too. The fact that the dog places it's head directly on the signal line may give some clue. He said sometimes the dog aligned it's entire body on the line but mostly just it's head. Dowsers can feel the line, some don't even need rods.

The #1 intelligent dog is the French Poodle. To train one to find gold, you first find a nice fresh dog terd, preferably from the opposite sex unless your dog is ***. Place the gold inside the "nugget" and your dog will go right to it every time!

One more note: Be sure to wear rubber gloves when you "toss the terd" or else your scent will get on it and it won't be scientific. This is a joke.

This is my last post here. I guess I got fed up when the but hole posted lies about me having to do with porn (on another thread). He knows the truth. It's just more of his low-life character. Carl, you are welcome to delete my posts. I doubt I will be sending you a rod any time soon. You can thank limp **** head for that one.
