As proven long ago, Fox News is not news, it’s all editorials. Every last person on the air is a pundit, there are no reporters. They don’t report the news, they report their opinions on the news. That’s why they have a “psychic” on one of their shows, to provide an opinion on what’s going to happen. It’s all just for show…

Those of us who remember Reaganomics also remember he used a psychic his entire EIGHT year presidency. SMH.

Are you thinking of his astrologer Joan Quigley? Not really any better, but not a psychic.

Mysticism such as using psychics is also something oddly embedded with Nazis. Like, even back during their rise they were oddly into mysticism

The Nazis had teams of archaeologists running around the world looking for all sorts of religious artifacts. Hitler was a nut on the subject. He was crazy. He was obsessed with the occult.

Their reply completely ignores your point about psychics contradicting Christian beliefs, and it’s absolutely shocking that Faux News watchers even tolerate it, let alone enjoy it.

Psychics contradict some Christians beliefs, not all. Many believe in psychics. It’s the more strict sects like Pentecostals or Southern Baptists that believe all psychics are evil. Oddly enough I agree with them, but for different reasons.
