Pike was also a militant spokesman in favour of wide sweeping reforms both within his church and society at large. He was officially censured by his colleagues for heresy. Not too long before his death he participated in the now internationally famous seance on Canadian television which was hosted by Allen Spraggett. Bishop Pike was convinced that medium Arthur Ford had brought his son back from the dead to speak with him on that show. Later he died under very mysterious circumstances during a visit to Israel. Allen Spraggett recalls all this story. <30mn>Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
