Snake Salvation Updates
This Saturday, February 22, 2014, Cody Coots, Pastor
Jamie Coots's son, will be preaching. Those in attendance will include the
rattlesnake that bit and killed his father. Something tells me that this week's
crowd will be standing room only!
What does the local police chief think about the
situation?
"Middlesboro Police Chief Jeffrey Sharpe concedes
a Kentucky law makes it illegal to handle or display reptiles in religious
services. But Sharpe says he doesn't care what the law says ... as far as he's
concerned the government doesn't have any business meddling in religious
affairs." Read the full story here:
And even if the law was broken, the man is dead. Who
are you going to charge?
The Dead Files -- Dishonoring the Dead by Selling Lies
Back in 2011, The
Dead Files debuted on the Travel Channel. The show claims that so-called
psychic Amy Allan visits allegedly haunted homes, businesses, and historic sites.
Before visiting any location, Matt Anderson, her husband, will remove anything
on the premises that may distract his wife. Amy claims that the dead talk to
her. Not sure about the bad hair and makeup, along with an odd wardrobe which,
according to her posts on Facebook, she has to provide. If she's psychic and
has spirit guides, we wonder why they are silent on her choices.
The opening credits claim she sees and talks to dead
people, which to the chagrin of the paranormal/new age, has never been proven
to happen. If it does happen, Amy like all other psychics aren't contacting the
dead but are really in communication with the demonic.
Unlike the show it tries to imitate, Paranormal State, which claimed to help
their clients, this show's purpose is selling Amy's psychic skills. The co-star
of the show is retired homicide investigator, Steve DiSchiavi. He confirms her abilities
by investigating claims via his research and interviewing skills. Meanwhile,
the clients are left to fend for themselves. It's fairly obvious that Amy just wants
to rush out and get on to the next case or the next public appearance she is
slated to get paid for.
The Eye on the Paranormal has an offbeat relationship
with Amy and her show. During the first season the show aired, we tried to give
all paranormal reality TV the benefit of the doubt when it came to being faked.
Now we know better -- they are all scripted and fake. We asked her if she would
like to blog for us and made her the deal that she would get a byline and full
credit and be able to express her views. Amy gave us the lame excuse that she
had to get her producer's permission. And that was it---no response after that.
God kinda told me that would happen and told me to
wait a year or two and ask her again and see what would happen. So, in 2013 I
asked again. She responded, but what she wrote was far off topic. It had to do with
some message to a woman that it was all right for the girl to see some guy as Amy
no longer had any claims on him.
This was a sign from God that Amy was full of
confusion. I did not need a burning in my bosom to know that Satan was well invested
in The Dead Files.
Early on in her emails, she stated that she knew
nothing about demons. So how can she identify them? If she can't even identify
them, how can she get rid of them? And why does she keep encountering them?
I'm currently breaking down an episode, which will
debunk her claims and the owner's claims. Don't just take my word about her
lack of spiritual discernment. Many others have seen through the veil and see
that Amy Allan is just like Chip Coffey, a third-rate actor playing the role of
a psychic-medium.
Here are some links to other articles/opinion pieces
about Amy Allan and The Dead Files.
On James Randi's site, the author of the following
article compares Amy Allan to Theresa Caputo, The Long Island Medium.
Another opinion piece:
The responses to the blog are worth reading. Many are
highly deluded into thinking that Amy is a real deal psychic and that they
would do the same thing.
Finally, we have this article where some of the tricks
of the trade are revealed:
Next week we'll blow the lid off of the dread, uh, we
mean The Dead Files.
