You just keep trying one bullshit idea after another at random.
skepticism is an interesting phenomena. When i was younger i had some strange neurological experiences that matched up with psychic phenomena (seeing EMF fields, out of body experience).. So for a while i was wondering what this all was. For times i would wonder if consciousness could exist outside the brain, so then i studied a load of neuro and realized there were rational explanations from a neuro view. I can tell you every neuro quantum theory out there and take it apart. Some of these theories have been entertained and worked on seriously at the highest level (think OrchOR industry).
If somebody comes to me know as a neuro know it all, i can say right no...it cant be psychic, due to this and that etc.. And debunk pretty well.
what i notice with EE hypothesis however is that some pretty advanced geologists are arguing for it.
again you can say like those neuro quantum guys they had the wrong idea...
but what is the motivation for these geologists ? The neuro guys had clear motivations.
A. They wanted a spiritual bridge from the death of god to something, anything as long as its not all over, when its over. Big motivation.
B. The idea of applying Einsteins work to the brain was not so crazy in the 1970's. You could propose and entertain this and be an interesting person in the neuro community. Status was to be had.
C. There were all kinds of application ideas like quantum computation, so you could suck in tech and Ai people for grants etc.
Very few of these geologists who are obviously highly intelligent, have anything to gain and a lot to lose. I dont think any of the current serious ones do it for religious beliefs. They risk their careers, lose job opps, become alientated from colleagues. And yet produce volumes of clearly written rational analysis.
There isnt even a practical application for EE, although lately due to the environment one group is investigating hydritic earth, but they dont even connect it to EE for their papers.
Whats the motivation then ?
I try to profile the proponents, and so far what i see is people who think this is interesting, and there is something in it, and damn the rest who dont think so. They have nothing to gain at all but the pursuit of truth and understanding about our world and perhaps implications for the universe itself.
Correct me if am wrong here, and i know there exceptions but overall this is how it comes across so far.
