No, its 100% true. No one has been able to prove telepathy or any kind of "powers" exist. No one. Ever. Not once
What is your belief that some people can do telepathy based on?

I don't think it's possible...I do believe in telepathy so this is not a debate on whether or not it exist...I do believe SOME people can do telepathy I just wonder if anyone on ATS can...

Mental telepathy can be accomplished through a spirit medium. This involves two people who hear the same spirit/s. The spirit/s echoe one person's mind and the other hears it. This is probably not considered genuine or true mental telepathy, but it does work.
PS: I would not suggest bringing unhealthy spirits into you life to do this.

They could win a million dollars if they can really do it as explained in this video:
Yes proof can be demanding and if the ability can't be proven then they will look foolish.

I've seen some dubious claims of this nature, but I must be brutally frank. Getting 31% right out of 4 multiple choice options, however statistically improbable, is very unimpressive, yet some people find this impressive.
However, there have been clinical trials that indicate some people have some degree of "connection" ability.

The tighter requirement for the million dollars is intended to make sure he doesn't award that to someone who just got lucky, which is understandable.
Both parties get a final say, and if they can't come to an agreement on what will demonstrate true paranormal abilities, the test doesn't move forward, but there's everything to gain and nothing to lose if that happens:

No. He wants the only say.
That's the deal. You have to agree ahead of time, that what he says is 100%.
Energy connection doesn't work that way. I know.
2.1 Protocols must be “mutually agreed upon.” What does that mean?
Neither the Foundation nor the claimant can force a testing procedure without the approval of the other party. In fact, applicants are encouraged to formulate their own protocol. However, if the protocol you submitted with your application does not qualify as a sufficient test of the claimed ability, the JREF will develop alternate testing protocol that you may agree to. The testing procedure is a negotiation. If at any time a deadlock is reached, the application process will be terminated, and neither side will be blamed or considered at fault. On occasion, an applicant may agree to a protocol previously designed by the JREF for testing various paranormal claims. Most of the time, however, new test protocols are developed jointly between the applicant/claimant and the JREF so that each party agrees to the terms of the test.
Apparently you were willing to argue about Randi if nobody challenged your allegations, but if they do then you're not willing to back them up. That's fine but I take it for what it's worth...not much. But if you had something to teach me I was willing to learn, but unfortunately lots of people throw out similar allegations to yours and nobody ever wants to try to back them up so they really sound hollow to me.
