    David, ENOUGH ALREADY!

    DB Trek, the arrogance in this is breathtaking. I assume you believe you're paraphrasing my statement, "We think we live in a democracy, but if you look closely, you'll notice all the Founding Fathers' tenets have and are being tampered with on a level never dared before." If you're not...

    David, ENOUGH ALREADY!

    Very beautiful, Poi. Sometimes though, we want to vent the outrage. For me, David's long post was utter poetry--not so much an "I'm Right" as a cry from the soul for us to pay more attention to what our leaders are doing. Nothing is more serious than sending a country to war. And what...

    Residual Hauntings: A Theory

    The whole tape-loop concept just doesn't sit right with me. Yet so many of us accept this as one major type of haunting. Nowhere in nature do things keep repeating identically while being impervious to outside forces. Yes, the Earth rotates, and life operates in cycles, but isn't it all...

    Gettysburg "Ghost" video.

    I agree, Jeff. It feels like the spirits or whatever they are, blend perfectly into the natural environment. In that way the whole thing is eerily familiar, like I may have seen glimpses of this sort of thing many times, though I have no memory of anything specifically. The white flashes...

    Gettysburg "Ghost" video.

    Spectacular video! Finally got around to seeing it--thank you. It looks all too real, and as J Ritzmann says, they're too high up to be re-enactors. So my question is, Do you think, as most paranormal investigators do, that this is a residual haunting, something that's not actually happening...

    E. O. Wilson interviewed by Bill Moyers

    Thank you, David. An inspiring, hopeful message from an enlightened realist who doesn't pull any punches. I don't know why everyone doesn't feel a bond with nature (We are nature, after all). Over the last six and a half years I've spent too much time being depressed about it. We've...

    Why is RSPK the primary explanation for poltergeists?

    If a person actually has the power to throw books across a room with just the mind, shouldn't we be studying this power? I mean, I'd love to get things done around the house while I'm laying around watching baseball.:D Stigmata people can cause gaping wounds in their bodies with, we're...

    Why is RSPK the primary explanation for poltergeists?

    I'm baffled:confused: Most paranormal investigators will tell you all poltergeist activity is the result of RSPK, Recurrent Spontaneous Psychokinesis. Their explanation is reasonable--when the catalyst/person is removed, the activity stops. But in many poltergeist cases there are also classic...

    Good vs. Evil

    The old saying "misery loves company" may offer an explanation. If, as Linda Zimmerman says, ghosts are stuck and generally unhappy, then if you were a ghost trapped with a happy family invading your home, this might really piss you off. You'd love to bring them down to size. Also, the...

    Good vs. Evil

    I would suggest that talking monkeys would be superior to many of our current leaders. Monkeys are inherently connected to the whole. I feel insulted for monkeys every time someone calls W the monkeyman. Any of us can feel the "whole" when the mind is at peace. No dogmas. Not as easy...

    Good vs. Evil

    David B. points out with keen perception the great child-like oversimplication our society grants to anything it doesn't like. People have been slipping on that forever. We all have far far more in common than we do in opposition, yet why do so many of our leaders demonize "the other?" Fear...

    Chocolate and Coffee

    You're just stuck in the effete, reality-based world. Go ahead, have your surrender-monkey MozartKugel. You might as well join the terrorists. We choco-wax people, we're the true Americans!

    Chocolate and Coffee

    I'm not much of a cook, but I did learn how to make my own chocolate, and what makes it special is the quality of cocoa and cocoa butter. In my view, Hershey's is good, Ghirardelli is better, but I like raw, organic cocoa, and the source I use is: Truly Raw Cacao Powder (Organic Chocolate...

    Aliens, Overpopulation, and Moore's Law

    Ah, here's where we have something to talk about. I'm contending that through our modes of expression--and perhaps by this you mean "reactions"--we as a species might, just might, be highly unusual. David Biedny jokes the aliens are here to listen to the Beatles. I contend that human...

    Aliens, Overpopulation, and Moore's Law

    Well said, CapnG, but I think you may have misunderstood me somewhat. Every sentient creature must know some sort of fear. That one emotion is probably universal. From the abductee accounts that I've observed, it does seem plausible one reason these people are taken is to study their emotions...
