Continued from Issue 118 The Case Against Theresa Caputo the Long Island Medium, Part 1
Notice that Theresa Caputo has a string of misses and
questionable hits so she decides to opt for humor to keep the viewer derailed
and bring in the hosts for a laugh.
Theresa tosses out the question, who lost a daughter?
No hits, so she jumps on to a brain aneurysm or Alzheimer’s [you don't die from
that illness]. A male reacts but she rejects him. Nope, it's a young good-looking
woman who takes advantage of the diseases beginning with the letter A. It's
easier to bring a woman to tears than a man. This woman accepts everything sent
her way, right up to the question "Do you have any of her clothing?" That's
a fairly safe one to ask, knowing that you'll get a yes. But when the Long
Island Medium starts to ask about recent deaths, it's a big miss and Theresa
breaks it off.
So let’s break down this so-called certified medium
readings down. [Ms. Caputo has been
certified by the Family Forever Foundation.]
1 Did she give us any names? No.
2 Dates? No.
3 Places? No.
We are left to ask this question--when people pass, do
they get dumber? Do they lose the ability to communicate with us? Are they
unable to speak clearly through mediums? If we go by what we see of the Long
Island Medium, they can show up but are unable to say who they are, whom they
are here to visit. The deceased person can't give their own name and the name
of the loved one, not do they give a clear message.
People will always ask how can people like this do
such things? Theresa Caputo is not unique in any way. She's just one more in a
long list of flavors of the month/year when it comes to fake psychics. She's
now in the company of The Amazing Kreskin, Uri Geller, Sylvia Browne, John Edwards,
and James Van Praagh. Whether they claim to be mind readers, magicians,
mentalists, or mediums they all have the same basic foundations.
1 They always claim that the gift came to them early
in life. Theresa Brigandi [maiden name] states that her gift always sent her
parents and brother into a crazy sort of ghost hunt. At times, it led to having
her father climb onto the roof of their home looking for things with green
scary eyes. This flies against what she now claims -- to have never seen
anything evil looking.
2 They always claim that they did not really use their
gift in life while they were children. Except as a way to entertain others.
3 Others always found them different.
4 They'll always find a mentor which in the case of
Theresa, was Pat Longo, a Long Island medium herself. Mrs. Longo claims that
she can heal you in person or over the phone for just $175. Here's her website:
http://patlongo.net/
In bold letters on Mrs. Longo's website it says "…and
in some God gave the gift of healing."
That is found in the bible: 1 Corinthians 12
But nowhere will you find the passage: "And some
the gift of healing which you can charge $175."
Not to turn this into a Bible thumping blog, but the
moment money is connected to anyone carrying out the gifts of the spirit, it stops
being a genuine gift from God. The alleged gift of healing means that it's
either outright fakery or a gift from someplace other than heaven.
In the May 26th episode, Why Me, we learn that Pat had to deal with cancer and she had an
operation. She also mentions that her husband died from cancer five months ago.
Why she did not turn to her faith for healing? From the new age viewpoint, cancer
is caused by a negative spirit and/or negative energies being blocked at the
chakra points. This isn't something we'd expect from a healer.
We don't know if Theresa went to Pat and was told that
she was a medium or not. Or did she go to Pat and say you're making a killing
in this line or work, teach me how you fake it. I'll take a look at the view
that this so-called "spirit" they claim to talk to is a demonic one.
Additionally it seems that Pat feels she can teach
anyone to do what Theresa claims to do. That means it is not really a "gift"
at all but simply a trade like driving a truck or being a cook.
It seems her teaching days are over as of 6/15/13.
Further digging into the site leads us to a Wordpress
blog made up of even more wacky new age teachings on topics that were taught in
the new age world back in the 1980s.
But there was a blog that had an interesting title
which lead us to a question to even more of her claims. This is written by a
participant in one of Pat's healing sessions. The author writes about a
mishmash of new age and eastern topics and describes herself as a sensitive
soul.
7 Ways to raise
your Vibration: according to Pat Longo, Long Island Theresa
Caputo’s healer.
Pat apparently didn't tell TLC that she was a medium
[have you ever heard of a psychic telling their client he/she is not psychic when
asked?]. Anyway, she was/is Theresa's mentor as well as her healer. Therefore, the
Long Island Medium endorses people that take part in illegal activates.
Additionally, nowhere on the site is there any evidence of medical science
certifying that she is really a healer.
Pat seems she know how to make a buck as she appeared
on her student's show in the second episode of the past season. If you want to
see the pair together in the Season 2 episode called Drumming and Healing, you can go to Amazon and see it for $1.99. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007ORWB86
This season, Theresa complained that her shoulder hurt.
Did she go to her healer for that magic touch? No, she went to All-Star Physical
Therapy. http://www.all-starpt.com/
Her brother is on the staff there and took care of her
needs. http://www.all-starpt.com/about-us/staff

Guess she's afraid of making Pat Longo a big star…
Next week we just keep digging to uncover the truth.

just one quick post here: you most certainly do die with alzheimers disease. the body simply forgets how to breathe and make the heart function.
She does give names, dates, and places. Lmfao.
No she doesn't give names, dates and places. Study her cold reading technique. She only gives general first names or initials. I'm talking to Bob, Jim, Carol, etc. how many have similar names to those? In addition, she gives general dates like time periods, 1990s, several years ago, etc. In one televised reading she went so far as to say the number two--or is it two days, two months or two years??? That's not giving much in the way of dates then.
So I guess it's me who's Lmfao.
Blessings,
Kirby
When?
Why bash a psychic medium for not being a robot?
