I've only just watched it (supposed to be spring cleaning!) How convenient that Abraham 'leaves him' for three days a month...

First time poster, had this programme on the freeview box and just watched it, interesting as I live near Harrow as well.
As someone who lost a close relative to Christian Science I felt a bit sad watching this. Mannion seems to have (almost) managed to delude himself into believing his nonsense. Any likeliood he has of returning to rationality will be knocked back by all his hangers on, sad people who themselves desperately need to believe he isnt a fraud.
Thats the problem with this kind of thing, it doesnt matter how much evidence you give to believers, if people really want to believe something they will. As someone else mentioned in this thread, its a real shame the nhs doesnt provide a bit more time and care. If so many people didnt feel abandoned by our health system they wouldnt be pushed into the arms of frauds and charlatans.
Mannion's website appears to have been taken down by the way. Has he shut up shop?

Just tried Mannions website after you and it directs to a search engine type page with the name of devinemessenger.com at the top ?
Anyone heard anything in regards to Mannions site being pulled ?

It looks like Gary hasn't paid his website peeps if the page has been pulled, either that or he's diversifying his career, he now boasts to be a salon owner WTF? his job description says Psychic Surgery, Salon owner I suppose he has to have another career if that one goes tits up ;D

We all have the same problem with believers, this site proves and has proven those who are the charlatans and frauds but sometimes to no avail, sad I know but if they would only open their eyes and their minds to the possibility that mediums and psychic surgeons are just not what they purport to be.

Looks like he has done a craig shell! This now means that the only web pressence for Mannion is the BP sites! Maybe that documentary did more damage to his career than we thought

Both www.garymannion.com and www.divinemessengers.comhave been down for about a week. It could be down to maintenance, I suppose, but for this long? He has been pretty quiet on his Facebook page too. As has his fan Fleur - whose last comment was to Kendra saying she MIGHT send the photos of the "scarring" on her back, following psychic surgery. I wonder if Kendra received anything?

Thanks Fluffet, so it must be either the website has been pulled or it's down for technical issues, or maybe the Trading Standards have told him to rethink the site?

thespiritguides.ning.com/forum/topics/gary-mannion-on-bbc3Some interesting posts about the programme and BP above...some apparently from people involved and from others who have been treated by Mannion. One or two have called for BP to be shut down and say that BP should never have been allowed to participate in the programme (Sigh ..the usual claptrap)

This from the forum linkAgain the completely wrong view of Bad Psychics! If we had been shown that any "spiritual gifts" had been proven beyond any other explanation we would be the first to advertise it!
Bad Psychics is about the fraudulant behaviour of those claiming these gifts for money when they can be shown to basically be hustling people.
We all would love there to be proof of something more but until (hopefully) there is then we will continue to show these con artists for what they are!!
edited to add word I left out, hope that's in order for the editing police

I dont mind when idiots criticise us, as it gives us free advertisement and also exposes their own ignorance
