Kurzweil on the paracast would indeed be interesting. I would vote yes. Some interesting questions could be generated that's for sure.

Boy, y'all gettin em debunked these days before ya ever talk to them. :p

I don't really talk much about the paranormal to friends and family. Not many are that interested in it. I can't understand why but then again I can't understand how somebody can read or watch Twilight. ;) But, my name is Steve Snead and I live in Alabama and am in Social Services. I still...

For me the only proof I could accept would be (even then I'd look for trickery.) But, would be "Hi, this is Uncle Joe and I enjoyed the Braves game we went to back in 1969." "Remember the foul ball that bounced right past you?" Something specific and to the point.

OK, I can see that. I actually came across an old book by that author the other day but passed it by. I thought it might be more Adamski type stuff. Is it worth a look?

The only thing I would add to this is the following: Be skeptical of the skeptics and the believers. Wiseman for one has been shown to be less than honest. Smart and even brilliant but not objective. Still, I do agree that he is well thought of in his field. On the other hand so was John Mack...

Hi Trajanus, haven't seen you posting as much lately. Or maybe I'm spending way to much time here. ;) This statement you made I don't understand at all. So, I'll ask you. "The idea of crashes and coverups has made considerable strides in the past 20-25 years." (quotations mine) Now I don't...

Nothing wrong with the thread at all. Some us just need to learn to play and converse civilly with others. ;) Present company excluded of course. :cool:

I'm also off the religion thread on the paracast. It's disappointing that such a big part of some peoples lives can't be discussed without bitterness and anger and propaganda being slung all around. However, this isn't church and shouldn't be. So, maybe we are better off. I also have a complex...

No, Rick. I was absolutely not talking about you. I told you that. Sheeesh, I give up. But, for the record NO! I wasn't being snarky to you. If I had a personal problem with you I would PM you.

I find many of your points to be well made. By the way mister, why didn't this sentence bother you or cause you ask what I meant? Hmmm, Mr. Smarty pants? :p

What are you talking about Steve? That's what she said. :p Oh nothing really. I just meant that sometime you say something and I think "Yeah, that's well put." Other times you say something and I think "No way, that's not very likely." Just the normal give and take of human interaction. I...

Although to another part of your point. I think everybody on here has a "need" of some kind. Maybe to validate themselves. Maybe to find like minded people. Maybe to research and learn. Maybe just to see if there is anything that might change or alter an opinion either they or someone else...

Good points and well taken. I also agree that "truth" is not changed by what you or I believe about it. I find many of your points to be well made. I also find some of them to be "not as well made." ;) But, then again that is what makes us individuals and you have (from what little I can tell...

I understand Trained. I don't agree with the idea that matter creates thought but that's what makes the world go round. We certainly both seem skeptical of transhumanism. Doesn't mean there's nothing to it. I just don't think the "evidence" holds up. But, then again I think consciousness...

Good to see you posting some again Pair. It does get tiring reading the same old simplistic b.s. here. Some folks here think by cursing and slinging snot (or Slangin snot) as we say in the south. :p that they can simply shout down all opposing view points. Still, some of what they think...

Do you remember being born, what colour were the clothes the doctor was wearing, what colour hair did he have ? was it day or night ? raining or sunny ? Do you have memorys prior to your conception ? Blue shirt and white smock. He had a scar over his left eye and his hair was a brown...

I should have known better. :eek: I was trying to say some things I had been thinking about. But, personalites and agendas (yes I'm guilty also) tend to sidestep the original intent for the purpose of "scoring" points. Anyway, that's what I get for skipping the baseball game tonight and coming...

It's not you and I that I'm concerned about being civil. ;) Sorry, but it is true. We seem to have the "nice" gene or at least the "peace" gene. :cool:

before you were born. Remember that? If I told you I did you wouldn't believe me.
