Thanks Rebecca.
I didn't realize that shaman is term that is still commonly used. I guess I'm just not that knowledgeable about this sort of thing. I thought they were always called psychics or psychic mediums. I'll keep that in mind when I look for someone to give me a reading, because it may help me find what I'm looking for.

Well, actually, I think a good psychic sniffing through a lie would be an excellent experience! That would be the point of the search, and a great find indeed. The point of the lie wouldn't be to make the psychic look bad, it would be to sort through psychics and see if any are able to figure it out. My only worry is that by lying, it would mess up even a terrific psychic. But if a good psychic probably wouldn't get derailed by that, then I think it's a good test.
I think if I had to go through a few psychics until one called me on my bluff, it would still be the best money I've ever spent.
I mean, what is it worth monetarily to receive validation about the supernatural, about an afterlife, about spiritual truths, and so forth? I'd say quite a lot.
