My answer to you is the same. Study the evidence.
I already told you that that is not my job. I'm not a scientist, I'm not a peer, I'm not a reviewer, I have no expertise or credentials in any relevant field.
In short: I am the very definition of "unqualified" to do that. My opinion on the matter is completely irrelevant.
That debate at the royal society is out there on youtube somewhere - Or it was a couple of years ago.
And again, I already told you that science isn't done in such "debates". Debates do not matter. They are intellectual masturbation and ego tripping. They are more about who is the best speaker rather then who is actually correct.
Sure they can be fun and interesting to watch, but again, when it comes to the actual science - nobody cares about debates. The vast majority of active scientists are all much too busy doing actual research and publishing papers and simply don't have time to engage in silly debates.
See if you think the "opposing" speech is based on other than prejudice!
I don't care. It does not matter.
You mean other than the scientific method used and the evidence it produced?
Just like creationists claim.
Clearly, the scientific community disagrees.
Again: it's them that you need to convince, not me.
Again it is out there on the web!
yes, yes...
There's plenty of creationist propaganda on youtube as well.
Newsflash: the internet... also not the place where science is done.
Take a look and follow it up. Then YOU Judge. Dont let sceptic sites judge for you.
I'll let scientists evaluate it for me. They are the ones actually qualified to do that - I'm not. They are the ones being paid to do that - I'm not.
If nothing else it is interesting
You obviously think so. I don't.
And the reality of Dawkins methods ( and intellectual dishonesty ) here:
I saw that series - that Dawkins produced - Sheldrakes assertions are spot on.
Not a shread of evidence discussed, only Dawkins apriori prejudice
Its how the world of science works on things it does not "like"
And again with the Dawkins ranting....
Once more: the guy is an evolutionary biologist. So for starters, this isn't his field.
The guy is also retired. The scientific community doesn't bow to his will. The guy is not the "boss of science". His opinions are his and his alone. Nobody cares. (except you, apparantly).
I have now concluded that it is not possible to have a serious discussion on this forum.
Why? Because I don't agree with you?
One based on evidence rather than prejudice.
That being so, I will not continue. Which is sad.
I don't think that's sad
In any case: my advice to you is, stop expecting the scientific community to do your homework. Don't come on here with the excuse that "nobody wants to fund these studies" with accusations of closed mindedness and whatnot. These are all excuses - if not lies.
For crying out loud, Ken Ham managed to gather no less then 100 million dollars to build his ridiculous Ark Encounter. And you're telling me you can't manage to get a fraction of that for a telepathy experiment? BE SERIOUS!
If you can't manage to find funding for such a study, it can only be by lack of trying.
By the way I love science.
I owned my first chemistry set age 8
Built my first radios age 9
Bought a telescope age 10
Built my first oscilloscope age 11
Read about quantum theory
Read my first book on black holes in teens.
It was reading quantum theory and bohr vs einstein that first led me to question.
Is this reality? Or just an equation that fits it? At at time before my maths could cope with it! That came later...
So later read books on philosophy of science - what it can tell us and what it cannot.
And so on...
Therefor, your accusations at the address of working scientists are valid?
Again: BE SERIOUS.
