Spiritualism as a Religion.

"Centuries ago we knew from birth that we could communicate with the universe....." It's a romantic notion but because we don't have any reliable, authenticated records of humankind's spiritual status all that time ago, it can't ever be anything other than a belief, idea or notion....

Not saying it's wrong, only that it can't be shown to be right.

sure we do... the cave by the dead sea. its written and we can date the language written back to centuries and centuries and its not on paper. written in stone.

Can you explain that me,please.
Was Spiritualism that ancient then?
Interesting concept.

Everything thing or belief comes from somewhere.. if you look at all religions they all will have the same common factor in all religions and thats because the truth is the truth regardless of beliefs and culture.
Connecting in spirit to each other and animals is nothing new under the sun each religion has taught you to connect to something and a name is just a name..but, again we get caught in names titles ect.. vs lesson thats being taught.. some will say he did this to help the people not knowing He was template of the level that we could achieve..

We spirituality was the first because we can see it now in the afterlife that truth never dies or be hidden it surfaces..lol...

Once again this is just my opinions and views that I am happy to share.

I found most of the mediums were rubbish...

They usually went to the eldest people and said things like i've got a John(Nearly everyone knows someone called John), he says he had chest pains...

I only ever met one proper medium, she gave messages to everybody...

She said i had just moved into a flat, which was totally correct...

Real mediums are very rare...

"She said i had just moved into a flat, which was totally correct..." And that could just have been psychic reading - not necessarily mediumship....

It very much depends what folk mean by 'mediums' and by 'mediumship'....Good, evidential mediumship may not be easy to find nowadays.

Mac, you've been involved with Spiritualism for a long time. What sort of strongly evidential messages have you received or observed over the years?

Me, Jim? You're asking the wrong guy..... Not a single one.

Pshaw! You're just being modest, and playing mum, Mac!

A simple one -- I'm in church.. wearing jeans and a red jumper. "Can I come to the gentleman with the red pullover? I have a man here, about five feet eight, and wearing a cardigan. I get a strangling sensation in my throat. Ooh, I can smell an oil or something, hold on I have smelt this before. It's cutting fluid, the stuff they use with lathes. Can you place him please?"

Errm, well yeah I could. My old dad was five feet eight, he 'died' with throat cancer, and funny enough he whiffed of cutting fluid 24/7 being an engineer, his hair, his clothes, his hands. Oh and his old beige cardigan that he always seemed to wear.

That was a fourty year ago example. I had never met the medium before nor knew anyone who knew them at that particular time.

The best was my dad coming through whilst sitting with Leslie Flint. That one blew my socks off!
