Well I'll give an account or two in the morning. The ball and chain is beckoning stronger than the botl tonight.

But I do appreciate the input.

In all seriousness though it's not something I have control over (yet?). I might be able to tell you everyday for a week what _____ is wearing, but couldn't even guess what you're wearing with any certainty at all. Or drinking/smoking/etc. it's completely random whether or not I could do it.

That's what I'm trying to figure out.

If I've ever gotten signals from or communicated with the other side I did not recognize it as such. I say that to say its ignorant to think its impossible. I've on many occasions been able to ride out déjà vu for several minutes accurately. I've predicted I few other events but attribute it to intimate knowledge. So I've never tried to hone anything and I don't think id want to.

We had a family gathering and I had an uncle who was recovering and clean but on dialysis. At the end of the party I stood at the door and watched him walk all the way to his car. I never do that and nothing happened out of the ordinary for me to do that and he had No problems and didn't say anything out of the ordinary that night. My mom called me the next day and I picked up the phone and i said it's Kendall. She said yeah he passed last night but I already knew. Ive had a few of those. I guess my avi is now somewhat chilling

Unfortunately, as a Christian, we are unable to believe in such things ourselves outside of spiritual gifts. So I thus don't have any paranormal powers nor am I a spiritually empowered person.

That being said, it would be interesting to do such things, so if you find reason to feel you can, maybe you''ve been blessed?

Edit: I removed my remark towards congregation size because it was misinterpretable and I didn't like that. But suffice it to say, I'm sure there are large groups on the other side of this field that believe in such things, so there are probably people you could get mentorship from perhaps.
Had to respond to this one. I'm Christian, and my bible has a Holy Ghost. Just sayin...

Amongst a variety of other, much crazier things.

I am going to speak completely hypothetically here. If I was thinking that I had abilities to be psychic, I would do a series of tests. Much like the opening scene if ghostbusters minus the electric shock. Record your findings and run the numbers. Communication with the deceased is a whole other bag, and I personally don't believe the dead can communicate beyond the grave. I wish they could, as would anyone who has lost someone close to them. I am not knocking it and everyone has the right to their opinion. Good luck in your search for answers on this though.

This, I'm fully in support of. I volunteer my number crunching skills for this endeavor.

Going out on a limb here but am a little drunk but I think Sean needs limes... Seriously, I believe this can happen. Also, Christian here, if you believe in angels then you believe in demons so all the other stuff in between must belong as well. Not going to knock someone because I really dont know since I dont have that gift. I also dont believe I can handle it, just reading some of these posts creeps me out.
