Paranormal Investigations.

[Theland]

Some go on "spooky lockdowns" with mediums and so called scientists to investigate this stuff.

Do you believe in a spirit world?

What investigations are done? Any real science?

This not being fickle or mocking, genuinely interested.

[Peter Pedant]

Hey no sooner do I predict that theland will be At It again
here he comes wiv - - - spooky lockdowns!
now let's see - has anyone proved they are cons?
No no - I do believe that some have been proven to be ansolutely con-proof. Doris Stokes writing in the Dandy once said .....

hey Mum - it is that man again !
Mystic Meg - I can see --- - I can see a true believer - weighed down with the truth - -- mocked and ridiculed and yet TRUE !
His day will come ....

// This has been discussed many times here and elsewhere. //
so yup here we are
discussing it again as a new idea never thought of before

//Strange chap Nailit. Always lurking on the edge of some belief system or other//
And what belief system (or other) would that be then?

[Theland]

Hey Peter.
Do me a favour?
Just be specific?
Ask a question?
Make a definitive statement?
Send me a love letter?

[Theland]

Nailit - You tell me. You are searching for something, or else why put so much effort into these matters?

[Peter Pedant]

// Do me a favour? Just be specific? //

there is a madman going around asking question he knows the answers to - just for fun.
Specific enough ?

There was $1 million on offer for 2 decades for anyone that could demonstrate a supernatural or paranormal ability under scientific conditions. Nobody did despite over 1000 people taking the test.

That's good enough for me, it's total hogwash. Like all the rest of it nobody can prove.

//Nailit - You tell me. You are searching for something, or else why put so much effort into these matters?//

Theland, I have retained an interest (since my Christian days) in WHY people believe what they believe. More from a psychological point of view that anything.

[nailit]

arch, even though Im a sceptic, the James Randi million dollar challenge had more holes in it than a colander...and im not prepared to highjack Thelands thread to explain why.

[Theland]

Who is that Peter? Evidence? Or is this just your brain frat?

[david small]

We are composed of the physical the mental and the spiritual. If one is more dominant or neglected then problems may occur.

[archibaldy]

Nailit, so you think it should have paid out?

[Theland]

Somebody help me!
I really try to be polite and reasonable.
Jus a few have a perverse pleasure in demonstrating a superior attitude and putting me down.
Is that fair or just entertainment?

[nailit]

//Nailit, so you think it should have paid out?//
Where did I say that?
Start a new thread about the million dollar challenge and don't highjack Thelands thread.
I might not agree with Theland but lets not go offpost.

[archibaldy]

I’d say it’s more on post than some of the answers so far but up to you.

[RATTER15]

I would like to believe it but I dont, not seen a shred of evidence to support any of it!
