Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. Just a reminder, there
is no radio show tonight. Also, our regular bloggers Lisa Grace, Mark Hunneman,
and Stephen Piersall won't have blogs for us due to the holiday weekend.
I reviewed a copy of Theresa Caputo's book There's More to Life Than This: Healing
Messages, Remarkable Stories, and Insight About the Other Side from the Long
Island Medium. Aside from the endless and meaningless title, was it as bad
as I thought it would be? Yes.
I posted my review on Amazon and to save you a trip
over there here is the review in its entirety.
You'll find more wisdom in the bottom of
a Jack Daniel's bottle
I
was a part of the new age in the 1980s and worked as a psychic-medium for
several years, so I think I'm in a position to offer a unique perspective of Theresa
Caputo's book. I'd like to point out it was also written by her teacher, Pat
Longo. Kristina Grish, the
credited co-author, was brought in to make sure the manuscript got that Long
Island phraseology.
Just
like Caputo's reality show, the book is nothing more than a scam to suck in the
sad and the hurting. Theresa and Pat make grandiose claims yet offer no proof
that any of these claims are real--because they can't. This book consists of
catch phrases popular within the new age movement. "Everyone has
intuition!" "Everyone can communicate with spirit!" Theresa
should feel guilty for referring to herself as a "good Catholic girl"
as the content of the book is 100% contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church.
Two examples: Catholics don't believe in reincarnation, and they don't believe
in consulting mediums. Nor would anyone with any genuine wisdom and insight
choose to plunk down hundreds of dollars [and wait for months or even years] to
consult a medium. Especially when God and Jesus Christ don't charge any money
and are always there.
The
biggest problem with this fantasy book is the gullible readers who believe what
this Long Island housewife says. What happens when they die and come to find
out that the life Theresa and Pat rhapsodized about on the Other Side is a lie?
Sadly, it's too late to ask for a refund.
