The results of those experiments are valid, peer reviewed and replicable - the things that you have said are the only things that count in science.
The interpretation of those results is worthy of further consideration but the results still show that consciousness has had an influence on a material systems.
Now you say that because it comes from the edges of science it's not worth consideration even though it ticks all of the boxes you require for validity.- but it's not a belief systemmonospaced
- Science is full of belief, probability and theory. All of which are supported with experimental results. For several weeks last year, the majority of the world BELIEVED that we'd found stuff that travelled faster than the speed of light.Morning_star

- of God. Which is important since the mind can be easily fooled as anyone who has taken drugs knows :)ukit2
- ^ My first post today links to the experimental results or evidence that shows consciousness has influenced a physical system.Morning_star
- Who mentioned God?Morning_star
- This thread is about comparing the scientific process to the blind belief in myths, such as religionmonospaced
- That's what the religion thread is about, no?Morning_star
- Besides you claimed that there is no evidence for paranormal phenomena. There is.
Morning_star - no, no there isn'tmonospaced
- also, to get an idea of what this thread is about, look at the first post and the following hundreds of postsmonospaced
- So your issue is that my posts aren't on topic?Morning_star
- Not if you're attempting to position science as a belief system.monospaced
