Hi, all of you phenomenal evidence seekers. We are in a Brave New World, but different from the one that George Orwell envisioned. From the early days of Modern Spiritualism in America when demonstrations were given both privately and in large meeting halls, much has changed with the advent of modern electronics and communications devices. Land-line phones are becoming obsolete, and photography from smartphones and tablets is ubiquitous. There are scores of individual ghost hunters and ghost-hunting groups using sophisticated equipment to try to capture images and voices of those in Spirit.
I think that all these new devices and new technologies can be used productively when used seriously and with care. What is missing, however, are home circles, especially in the United States. I'm worried that those who truly are seekers of phenomenal evidence will lose the human touch, along with their sensitivity and basic mediumship skills. Perhaps the next step in this ever-changing world will be robots to do the search and evidence-finding for us. I would be saddened by this. Tell me what you think.
