James Randi explained: A policeman has intuitions as to who is a criminal. He can only accost these people with “reasonable cause”, so he does not dare to act according to these intuitions.

His unconscious intuition makes the dowsing rod indicate the potential criminal. And then he dares to search the suspect. I sat in the speech when he explained that and I made him angry when I pointed out that he thus took away a tool that helped to arrest criminals.

I am also positive that in his books and articles, he explains that in his experiment dowsing rods worked to find gold, as long as the guy who hid the gold was present. So the dowsing rod did not find gold, but the dowsing rod operator was sensitive enough to pick up the vibes of the guy who hid the gold.

Maybe I was not clear enough in the article. You are right in a way, dowsing rods don’t work miracles.

YOu are wrong, wrong, wrong and wrong. Everything you state is either a straight out lie or a logical fallacy.

For a FACT – Randi has never EVER stated that dowsing rods (of any kind) have any affect what so ever. If you have ever read anything of Randi’s you KNOW this as a lie. You are outright lying or have no clue who or what you are talking about.
