Hi

This trick?

I agree completely.

And: That, "on my cue," bit should be a nudge in the right direction.

If you pray to The Almighty for something, what arrives doesn't arrive on 'cue.' A 'cue' is when you tell someone, "when I raise my arms...".

If the Almighty exists, no agency tells Him what to do.

I know, I know -- a semantic slip -- but it's really quite hard to not say what we actually mean, even when we're fibbing outright.

Has anyone debunked him? Has anyone said it was a party ballon? Most everyone else, including investigative reporters, have said it is a huge silver sphere.

He was about to claim the million dollar prise until the Randi people backed out on a techniality -- they did not want him to have any armed guards.

I just watched the video, and I say it's a balloon.

Watch it yourself. It's obviously a balloon.

Wow! Pretty cool. The guy can summons UFOs at will. Presumably the advanced technology under his command will infinitely improve conditions of life here on Earth. How can I give him all my wealth? Do you have an address to which I can send my check?

One video?

That does not sound like a very through investigation.

We can say it is obviously fake just because we think it must be. But where is he debunked?

I was reading the history of his application for the million dollar prise, the Randi guy suddenly says, "oh, you cannot have any personal security there". Well, if he WAS the real deal, he WOULD have personal security preventing REAL wackos from attacking him. It is a catch 22. He shows up alone and is mobbed and we say "well, if he was for real, wouldn't he had some personal security" On the other hand, if the JREF finds that he has personal security his application is turned down. So the guy says, ok, thanks but no thanks. I say the score is this:

Wacky UFO Guy: 1
JREF: 0

Still waiting for the debunked info. Is it hidded somewhere like the secrets of Penn and Teller?

He is debunked on that video.

It's not hidden anywhere. Just watch the video.

Consider:
Prophet Yahweh = A balloon & a man with gas (helium, that is.)

The issue doesn't merit a thorough investigation. If he had more convincing evidence that he could summon UFOs, then a more thorough investigation would be warranted.

Wouldn't someone see some confederate waiting for the signal to lauch the party baloon? It seems he has done this many many times and you would think that someone somewhere would have seen it.

Also, the balloon seems to stay at the same altitude and even travel side to side and back and forth.

You are saying that he or an assist is hauling around a helium gas tank?

Hey, I admit the whole thing about praying to make UFO's appear is goofy but someone hauling around helium to do this trick seems goofy too.

You're right. It's much more logical to think that he summons UFOs. After all it's totally impossible that he carries a helium tank in his car and it's totally impossible that he filled a milar balloon at the local party center will helium and released it on site.

Hey, where do I send my money?

 

[drapier]

Once again you are totally right. No one would ever think of shaking the camera when a totally awesome UFO was in sight.

Wouldn't someone see some confederate waiting for the signal to lauch the party baloon? It seems he has done this many many times and you would think that someone somewhere would have seen it.

Consider:
If it was a baloon, the news crew that set out to riddicule and make fun of him and expose him as a fraud would have picked up on that ASAP and would have joked around about it later a the anchor desk.
