Lol!
But they do have methods of inquiry or at least some way of testing a hypothesis, or even a tangible concept and rudimentary ideas they plan to study. That's a far cry from sucking down a joint and thinking "wow man, it'd be so crazy if we could teleport in our sleep anywhere thru space and time. I bet that's possible somehow, hey who ate all the cheerios?" |

You can't prove me wrong and I can't prove you wrong. This is all based on personal experience, so why argue?
The world keeps on turning, and then we all die... |

its not my job to prove anything. im the skeptic. you're the one who would be making the (incredible) claim. you must bring sufficient evidence to support your position. my job is just to sit here and mock your ideas until you can present something other than esoteric masturbation :) |

lol @ esoteric masturbation.
It really is a tough subject to talk about because there are soo many skeptics and it's hard to get the point across without sounding like a preaching maniac. So for YOU to see evidence, you have to WANT to see evidence without being skeptical. Ask yourself, "Why am I skeptical?" Dig DEEP for the answer. Go into EVERYTHING with an open mind. Why limit yourself to only one belief system?
Question your Self, your very Being. Who are you really? Are you a physical body? A collection of experiences and memories? Are you the sensations that you feel? What about your emotions, where do they come from? Clearly they are real, but how can you prove that they are real? Are you the voice inside your head, or are you the one who listens to it?
Become conscious of consciousness becoming conscious of itself.
Don't look "outside" for the answers, but go inward. |

That's called religion. |

Let me put it this way:
It's not so much thinking outside of the box or inside, but just knowing that the box is there. |

| See, it's people like you that make it stupid to not be a skeptic in these sorts of things. |

yeah, i did all that more than a decade ago. do you have anything new or interesting?
there's no doubting that these kind of topics can be interesting, but im not gonna waste my time with the masturbation simply because none of you can present any verifiable evidence to prove that things like astral projection are possible. |
