Thought you'd find this interesting, I am just about to start watching this programme :

Quote:

The Enemies of Reason

Slaves to Superstition:
Richard Dawkins tackles the epidemic of irrational, superstitious thinking which is blotting the light of logic and evidence. After garnering tips on psychics' entirely earthly trade secrets from the illusionist Derren Brown, Richard attends a seance and confronts the medium. Time and again, the interviewees appeal to personal revelation or second-hand anecdote to justify their belief

I'll let you know what it's like.

Those who treat Buddhism as a religion are adding their own adding their own beliefs to the teachings, it is not part of the Pali Cannon.
The Dalai Lama himself states often that it is not a religion.
Watched this some time ago, but it is great to see it again and all in one place.

Dowsing is something that is done by a person. It can't be done without an observer.

(Or with one, for that matter.)
