YouTube - Enemies of Reason Ep.1 (1 of 5)

Prof 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, Dawkins attends a seance and confronts the medium. Time and again, the interviewees appeal to personal revelation or second-hand anecdote to justify their belief.





he mentioned all this are affected by the PLACEBO effect ,. People does care weder its true or not as long as it pleases them . a feeling of being in the center of attention.

Does this really affect our immune system from the placebo pills?
Or are this practices acces our subconcious mind and stimulates our inner chakras'?

How all this have no scientific evidence , but why a quarter of people practice it.?

YouTube - 5th Dimension - Mind over Matter (Telekinesis)

this video is made in the 60's and its very easy to manipulate things and people during that time.

but still there is no evidence under controlled situation.

Internationally, there are several individual skeptics of the paranormal and skeptics' organizations who offer cash prize money for demonstration of the existence of an extraordinary psychic power, such as psychokinesis. Experimental design must be agreed upon prior to execution, and additional conditions, such as a minimum level of fame, may be imposed. Prizes have been offered specifically for PK demonstrations, for example businessman Gerald Fleming's offer of 250,000 pounds sterling to Uri Geller if he can bend a spoon under controlled conditions.[94] These prizes remain uncollected by people claiming to possess paranormal abilities.
The James Randi Educational Foundation offers 1,000,000 US dollars to anyone who has a demonstrated media profile as well as the support from some member of the academic community, and who can produce a paranormal event, such as psychokinesis, in a controlled, mutually agreed upon experiment.

then you must produced an evidence that it was being manipulated.


ah that guy...sige lang pahuwata lang siya...

[cromagnon]

derren brown had an interview video with Richard Dawkins' explaining how everything is a trick

then you must produced an evidence that it was being manipulated.

even if there is an evidence that it's manipulated . people wont spend time on that since we are halucinating creatures.

Just as said These are pure Entertainment and Million dollar business same as religion and politics.

Which most people agreed upon , since they find it amusing. All this things exploited people in subtle ways.

but still is gonna be practiced by many. Psychologist totally understand it.

aha...there is the trick part and there is the real part.

ans: I said produced an evidence. Dont assumed


I guess Dawkins will earn millions for this project.

[cromagnon]

no need to assume , if it's real it should have been in the school textbook , Taught in the university .
win a nobel price in science that our brain really has that capacity.
but it never was and never will

Dawkins may or may not earn millions he is one of the brave few people who stands up for the truth. He weighs things out . shows the advantages and disadvantage of it on our lives.

An awareness to people , that not all will accept . Either way we cant always believe on anybody . just because he said it .

- but in theosophy u can practice blasphemy , but u dont have to accept any of its teaching. a plain body of knopwledge and truth,.

But it doesnt work that way.

Suppression is being encourage by the Powerful Religious Organizations in the world. Its impossible to teach this at school,and not all kids are gifted. If you know what I mean.

No problem with Dawkins, he's a Scientists but not all scientist have the same position as Dawkins.


well what can i say...theosophy can mean freedom.

[cromagnon]

well for the only known telekenisis , is the person who can controll the mouse cursor without using a mouse.

It's done through brain wave detector and a machine that do as what the brain waves shows.

but i dun wanna be a plain skeptics cus were weighing things up . and people wil believe what they wants to believe .

but the practice of meditation do have the effects in our healt . there is no scientific expalination for this. but its practice by ancient people. but im open to this idea . its even practice today such as yoga.

first of all it does leesn a person's anxiety. this includes quantum healing by deepak chopra.
or could it be the affect of the placebo.
