    You said it not me....

    What we found was that though Ryan was off on some of the details, a lot of what he said was correct for Marty Martin.

    Like any street grifter palm reader.

    The 10 yr old isn't operating by himself, just a bright kid with a good memory and a flare for the dramatic, Clearly you've never been to the French Quarter in New Orleans or (fill in other big town scam area all over the world). Interesting how much lower the burden of proof is for the "supernatural".

    I'm done, have the last comment or comments....

    I genuinely hope you have a pleasant evening.

    Warmest Regards,

    David

    No reason to end a conversation. I'm not mad nor upset about your opinion.


    But out if curiosity, do you have kids? I ask because I have a son who's going to be 10 this year. He's an honor roll if not high honor role student. Now. I'm not saying kids can't have weird fascinations, but to try to teach a 10yo weird shit like that, and have him remember it, is quite frankly amazing. If anything its a great story because the kid must have an amazing memory and a crazy ability to learn facts that mean nothing to him.

    If I tried to drill shit like that into my 10yo's head. He'd probably look at me crazy, then hit me with whatever game controller he's holding. Because that's what he likes. Like most 10 yo's.

    Now I'm not saying F'd up parents out there don't try crazy shit to either make a buck or become famous. But this I find pretty far fetched. In the report they said this is info that's not easily found. No Google search would find it. So mom would have to have gone to pretty extreme lengths to find all this out.


    I don't believe in everything I hear or even see for that matter. But I find this particularly interesting. And if I'm wrong, well I was thoroughly entertained.

    OK, didn't want to get into a pissing contest, appears thats not the case.

    Yes, I have kids, son in college, daughter in high school. I remember reading them stories at night when they were little. Rarely, I would come home late from the plant, exhausted from an unplanned 16hr day. Change clothes, grab a quick bite, just enough time to read before they went to bed.

    They would pick out a story, and I'll admit it - I would want to speed things up. I remember trying to skip a page here or there as we read through there long story. We would get to the end and I would say " The End, Good night"

    "Wait Dad! You didn't read this page (flips to page) or this page (flips to page) or...."

    Kids are smart. Properly motivated, they are easily capable of learning the details of that story - details that "aren't available w/ a google search":

    http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0554421/bio?ref_=nm_ov_bio_sm

    Then get an "expert" that wants to believe, and yeah the kid got some things wrong but went into a lot of detail (most of which would be personal in nature and impossible to verify).

    Amazing!

    I completely agree kids memories are amazing. My 2yo does the same thing with books, because I'm guilty of the same. Skipping pages. Most of his favorite books, if I just start them, he recites the rest. Word for word.

    But with my experience at least, if it's not something they find interesting. Then trying to get them to remember it would be a huge pain in the ass.

    This here has more of the details that I saw on the news. The first article didn't really do the story justice. http://www.today.com/news/return-life-how-some-children-have-memories-reincarnation-2D80550946

    I don't know. Like I said. At the very least. I was entertained. Just seems like a too random of a thing to teach a kid and have him remember.
