In science there's no such thing as a "conclusive proof", merely accumulating support for a current theory - it would still only take one single counter-example to disprove the theory..I'm curious, actually, how much validated evidence is required to become conclusive proof?
Wow. So much has happened since this thread began..
Imagine: box jellyfish that
are able to hunt and distinguish color without any resemblance to a brain;
glial cells in the brain, (the gray matter,) that transmit signals to each other
in a chemical process that is, itself, separate from neural pulses...(a whole other processing unit?); REG experiments to measure some global subconscious coherence; we've managed to process quantum wells, and have even begun to map dark matter! And then, of course, there is the bell theorem, etc.
~It might be a wiser decision to admit that there is a possibility.Obviously, few things new and exciting could be discovered unless the gatekeepers were willing to suspend their beliefs long enough to consider them.. I, for one, would love to see the affects this kind of paradigm would have on our societies many misrepresented weirdos!
Good to see some familiar names here after all this time..and please forgive me if I've somehow managed to hijack this thread! (Feel free to carry on)
Anyone who could win the Randi challenge could make millions at the casinos, so there is no point in offering any prize less than ten million dollars.
Hey CC, I'll take an honest stab at this. If you would like me to try.,
sisyphus
There is if the person isn't interested in gobs and gobs of money and fame... but that just wouldn't be human now would it?
What a Buddhist monk will do with money and fame...for example....
Come now, CC, you probably are trying to provoke a response. I don't wish to be provoked. I'd like a solid expression of weather or not you would like to hear an explanation coming from me. If you think it is not worth it, just say so.
Come now Sisy, an explanation without an objective event to explain isn't valuable.
If that is how you are going to be, all presumptious and shitty, I will leave this thread permantly.
Awaiting response...
