My husband passed over with Prostrate cancer 8 years ago...
My question is this.....

Are those who are suffering with terminal cancer 'aided' to end their lives? Not at home but in hospitals?

Like a mercy killing?

Thank you for the explanation. I don't see you views as being contradictory to spiritualism.....but can see why others would...

Hello Tashanie,

Yes, they are similar in many ways.

Just changing the topic of Spiritualism what I am interested in this.....why do mediums of yesterday going back to the 1800's seem to be able to contact the spirit world much easier than the world today?

Hello Joan,

It just seems like that because mediums then were using all types of devices to convince their sitters that their dear departed were there - fake photographs, drawings of people coloured in, models of 'ghosts' held up with coat hangers, etc. It was for this reason that the SNU (Spiritualists National Union) formed in the 1930's came to the conclusion that mediumship CAN prove survival but without all the silly trappings and fakery. It was codified and monitored and mediums who were training had to prove survival through 'mental mediumship' i.e. contact via sentience. It is as easy to contact the spirit world today as it ever was and no fakery, etc is required.

Love,
Patsy.

I remember reading a book years ago which belonged to an uncle of mine. I was only about 12 years old but the pictures used to fascinate me. Just as you said I realise now they were fake pictures......But oh so good for false....
