This is really no different than any other field. You'll find dishonest lawyers, doctors, politicians, CEOs, and even... gasp... gamblers.

Lawyers have a particular bad reputation externally, yet within the field you'll find people with high integrity who genuinely want to make a positive difference. Same goes for corporate CEOs.
You are no doubt correct. It therefore follows that one should be equally cautious in one's selection of attorney, investment portfolio manager or massage therapist (I screen my massage therapists VERY carefully! )

That aside, the point remains: no person with claimed psychic or paranormal ability has stood up to the test of scientific rigour. If indeed such ability does exist, and reliably so, then this is an astonishing statistic, is it not?
