Well, I haven't found anything with him talking about not knowing whether people believe or not. He only speaks about evidence but he does make assumptions that "blind faith" is real. No evidence of that outside of the words people use. I like James Randi and I admire skepticism generally speaking and I'm a fan of fraud busting... but he can be a little hard-headed. Here's the thing: Police don't use psychics because they necessarily believe. Psychics don't need to necessarily believe. It's true that its irrelevant whether they believe what they say. Being a magician, he knows all about effective manipulation, which he uses to debunk fraudsters. But they use psychics for a reason James Randi might likely _not_ agree with: It's practical psychology. Like a magician who is honest when they say they're going to fool you and then they do, psychics do the very same thing, but in their own way. He speaks a lot about blind faith; that is _precisely_ speaking about belief. How do you KNOW if someone has blind faith or if they're pretending? You don't. It's not something we can ever know. But he does talk about it a lot _as if_ it's a real thing. All that being said, and I could be wrong, I'm generally a fan of James Randi, even if I think he goes a little too far with his politics of it all, but that's his mission.
