Here is one of the best lectures ever summarizing the most recent findings in parapsychology. While you watch, please pay attention to your own reaction.
I'd be interested to hear your reaction when you watched it.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

{I'm in a rural backwater, with my slow internet it would take about 3 1/2 days for me to watch that)
Having said that, imagine the impact from a Darwinian perspective for a prey animal to be able to reliably sense a nearby predator animals thoughts. I'd posit if any kind of psychic ability were possible, the survival advantage would be overwhelming, and we would already have absolute proof of it. The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Just shy of empty minded, just further than close minded. Whats your personal favorite portion of the uploaded clip, and what does it have to do with any given persons open-mindedness? If I don't have an "open mind" will I laugh and call massive bs?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
How can we tell psi from not psi? Does the video cover that issue? Honestly I don't feel like watching an hour long lecture on psi that doesn't cover that important issue.
It is very important not to mistake hemlock for parsley, but to believe or not believe in God is not important at all. - Denis Diderot

For wooters, "open mind" means that precise degree of gullibility which would enable a fool to take wooters with some minimum degree of seriousness.

So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat?
True JuliaL, the private sector and the government would be all over that.

Are you open minded enough to deal with criticisms of your pet beliefs? I guess not, Chad.
