Listen, we Brits can be just as bonkers as the rest of you!
Welcome to The Faith Of Britain!

Faith Of Britain Day is a day that focuses all of the positive energy in the country towards achieving our hopes and aspirations. For exactly two minutes on March 6th at 11.00am our consortium of psychics and healers will act as a channel for the positive thoughts of the entire country.

Why March 6th at 11.00am?

March 6th has been chosen as Faith of Britain Day because March is a time of seeing light emerging from the darkness of Winter, therefore emphasising hope in an unsure world. Numerologically this date is symbolic because the 3rd month, the 6th day and the 9th year are all multiples of 3 which is about balance - which is what we strive to achieve as humans. The time, 11.00am is a master number, or a powerful 2 (1 + 1) which is the duality of the inner and outer self, encouraging us to look within to find solutions.

And they're not just loonies, one of them was a (*gasp*) scientist:

Lisa Elmore

Lisa, a mum of two young children is 39 and lives with her family in Hertfordshire. For much of her adult life, she worked as a Scientist until she discovered there was too much evidence to show there was far more going on in the Universe than she realised. Her spiritual and psychic senses awoken, Lisa was guided to go through self development to find her path.

She naturally moved from her life in the Science world to train as a healing practitioner and therapist and her psychic experiences kept heightening. Lisa now works successfully helping others to heal themselves and uses a combination of her psychic and spiritual awareness with her down to earth evidence based understanding of the consequences of our thought processes.


See, you don't have to be an evil scientist all your life if you just awaken your spiritual and psychic senses

1. Magnificent!
But you short-change Lisa Elmore: she was not a scientist, she was a Scientist, in the Science world.

Woohoo! we will unleash an irresistible psychic force that will, quite literally, make our dreams come true.
Are you sure about that? I have some pretty wild dreams! If you see Scarlett Johansson looking tired in mid-March, you'll quite literally know why.

It is a proven scientific fact that thinking about something often causes it to happen. Some call this quantum physics. Others simply call it "faith." And some call it "bullshit", but what do they know?

2. I see that Lisa was a "S"cientist.
In the Cult of Scientism, no doubt.

3. In the USA, that makes "S"cientists as good as Realtors!
Until recently, I didn't know "realtor" is a copyrighted something-or-other and the "R" should always be CAPITALIZED. This was done by some trade group trying to upgrade real-estate sales people to a more professional status.

I'm assuming that all references to Realtors should get the same treatment. So I'm personally going to be very careful when I use such terms as Bottom-Feeding Scumbags, Lying Wankstains and Greedy Thieving Assholes.
