Tell me about it. When I first saw Dr. Greer's two hour Disclosure Project NPC briefing video, I was impressed, except one thing threw me off- that lady somewhere (Dr. Carol Rosin?) towards the end who sounded like a second-rate actress talking about how she worked with Dr. Von Braun and how...

Yep, the easiest way to make me think someone is on the level is to come out and admit that you're not the one with the answers, exactly like Vallee. I know it's kind of sweeping, very sweeping in fact- I don't mean this to be anything "absolute," (I don't have the answers!) I just meant it...

I decided to kill some time making a list of things that speakers say in the paranormal field that automatically trigger my suspicions. I was hoping to make a big list but didn't get very far - these were just off the top of my head. Can anyone think of any others? These aren't meant to be...

Yes, it's sickening... But it's kind of odd, the old white republican guy to Rove's left actually has some decent moves, for an old white republican guy...

One thing about living in General Guemes I never could stomach... all the damn gnomes.

Very true. It's the latter I was griping about in my last post, but scientific thinking itself is also not without its flaws.

"The Paracast is an oasis in the paranormal desert, proof that skepticism and open-mindedness can coexist in this field. A bastion of intellectual honesty and willingness to explore new ideas."

ATS really has overgrown itself, I used to be a fairly frequent contributor there some time ago, but for the past couple of years I haven't bothered visiting anymore. It's just too chaotic, and its bizarre "points" system gives it a bad feel, IMO. When I took a brief look last month after two...

Science is not always the best tool for answering any given question. The scientific method depends on a mix of inductive and deductive reasoning (primarily deductive), and both of these have their flaws. With inductive reasoning, you infer a general rule from specific instances. For example...

Excellent suggestion, I second Grof. I've read a lot of his work and while LSD played a big role in his earlier work I think his later stuff is much more evolved than psychedelics research. (Although personally I think this sort of thing is a valid scientific avenue - and so did society at one...

I just had the unfortunate experience of listening to the George Knapp / Colm Kelleher interview on C2C, and one of the two was making a big deal about how this Bigelow guy was "way beyond" the need to profit off of the Skinwalker Ranch story, and Art and the two guests had a big old suck-up...

Yup, great show. I think the hosts had a lot of questions they wanted to ask but didn't get to, but I think they took the high road and didn't rush the interview, letting it serve as an excellent all-round introduction to the man and where he's coming from. I do hope he comes back.

One "explanation" I heard, from a source of questionable reliability (the channeled "Ra Material," for those who know it, I started another thread on it elsewhere here), is basically the following: When we detonate a nuclear device, those caught in the blast are destroyed in a way which (for...

I'll take a different view here. After many years of reading up and generally being interested in things like UFOs, the paranormal, and so on, I've come full circle and I think the old terms are best in many cases. "Demons" or "angels" are no less valid terms for the entities they refer to...

I can only add that I am equally interested in that aspect some people have mentioned which Jeff puts very well as "they're very hard to be around." I don't know how closely this is related to the feeling of hyperreality. Some people report feeling nauseous or dizzy or "out of whack", some...

You've summed up my thoughts almost exactly. (Don Elkins certainly seems an odd character, judging by his wikipedia bio.) The sheer bulk of the material, and the fact that it is (still) being distributed free (LL Research will even mail the books free under some circumstances, according to...

Flakturm, I think part of the problem here was the way you came across in your original post(s). It was as though you were sitting down in a support group circle and just riffing. It sounded very much like it was taken straight from the pages of one of many books on the topic, which makes me...

I don't know where to begin with this, I've recently discovered two separate (though related) "texts" online and they both have struck me as, shall we say, worth more attention. Yet possibly also completely nuts. Has anyone heard of or familiarized themselves with the "Ra Material?"...

Sweet! Congrats Gene and Dave for making it happen. Can't wait to listen.

I fear the temptation for humor will be too much to resist here... So I give in. Cattle? Seriously, who knows what we can offer a galactic economy. I remember some old sci fi book I read, I forget the title, author, and most of the plot, but it was based around the idea that one day a simple...
