Blog Assignment

Ok, after searching searching for some information related to my topic, I think I found some sites. My topic is "can one communicate with the dead." I thought it would be interesting to write about, but I have found it very hard to find research on. After searching the net here's some sites I came up with.

Communicating with a Deceased Love One
Moving Beyond the Light by Echo Bodine
This site was interesting. It told different ways to communicate with the dead in a step by step process. Although I really don't think just any random person could read and follow the steps to communicate with the dead. It also, told about the many ways that the dead try to communicate with us as well. I found it helpful. I will probably use this one for my paper.

Communicating With The Deceased - Part Two Dreams
By Sue Darroch
This site was helpful as well. It was basically an article that tried to answer the question "Can the deceased communicate with us while we dream?" She talks about her own experiences as well as her research. It was interesting to read about her experiences.

Communicating With The Deceased
By Sue Darroch
This was, I believe, part one of the above article by Sue Darroch. She talks about the different ways you can try to communicate with the dead. For instance, Ouija Angel/Demon Boards, Seances, Automatic writing and Channeling, and props. She discusses each one, then asks the question, "do these methods really work". She also talks about her own experience.

Communicating With Deceased Loved Ones
By Yvonne Perry
This was an article written about a lady that was going through a divorce and felt a presence among her who she later identifies as Ginny Lee. This lady had passes away a few years earlier. She says, this spirit helped her through this difficult time and also guided her to the Church where she met her current husband. This was very interesting.

What God tells us in the Bible about trying to communicate with the dead.
This site was controversial but very interesting.

I visited this site to find a schedule of the show Haunting Evidence. There is an episode on October 11 at 10p about Madeleine McCann. I think I will watch it and see if there is anything pertaining to my topic.

I love your topic, I was going to do my essay on communicating with the dead as well but decided it would be even harder to get information on this subject. So I decided to go with “Should law enforcement use psychics?” This also was a hard subject to get information on but I kept searching and was able to get enough information on it. I look forward to reading what you find on the subject because I think it will be very interesting information. Thanks for leaving me a comment! I look forward in reading your essay, and wish you best of luck on your subject that you’re writing about.

Hi! My name is Kerry Rohde, I was reading your blog and wanted to tell you how interesting I thought It was. I thought that the sites and the opinions you shared were both interesting and helpful for future reference. I also agreed with alot of what you said concerning the peer review process. When we turned in our papers the first time I was happy with it. After reading it again later and reading the peer review suggestions, I realized that I had written a long boring paper! Had to be changed!
I also was interested in hearing more about Nastradamas. Very interesting stuff! Thanks for all the input!

The topic was a great choice. I have had experiences with both sides, good and bad, of communicating with the dead. I feel that my grandmother, who has been deceased for a few years, looks over me and my family and sends "signals" to us to let us know she's there. On the other side of that, the bad side, I think it's dangerous to try to communicate with the dead. I beleive there are portals you can open that can let harmful spirits and entities in. Your paper and research should prove to be very interesting and informative to you and to everyone else. I am excited to read it.
