[quote="Sanctuary

"Sometimes there is no definitive answer."

But there are definitive refutations when you get to the nitty gritty .

"Came across this a while back which I saved...

"I had a guy round on me, in public, that my dowsing was bullshit. He was nasty. So. Giving him my best smile, I asked him if he had any children.
He had.
I asked how much he loved them?
He said, I love them.
Fine. How much do you love them?
I can't answer that. I just love them.
So, there isn't a machine to measure how much you love them?
No.
So, in that case, going by your laws of physics that you are imposing on me,
if you can't measure it, weigh it, calibrate it, your Love doesn't exist?"[/quote]

Typical illogicality /category error of the dowser .

If the dowsing response is to be considered as an emotion ,/state or poetry should we forget about what they keep telling us they believe they can find ?
