Science Blog was started in August 2002. It lives, breathes and eats press releases from research organizations around the globe. Most of what you read here are press releases from the outfits named in the stories themselves. Got a news story you think belongs here?
Let's talk.

This is one of the most interesting threads of conversation I've ever read on the internet.
As far as Jack Webber web site that was mentioned is concerned, I've taken a look at the levitated table photo and honestly, it looks riggged...the chair leg is making an imprint in the cushion in between his legs and there are reinforcing wires on the right ends if you look close. That's what I see visually and its not what I want to see. I do believe some people may indeed carry more perception than others. But regardless, I would still like to read the book and find out more on the subject.
I'm always amazed at the concept of the power of the mind over matter, which is why I decided to research telepathy this evening. If one believes something does it really matter whether it is true or not for the rest of us? I fell in love with a man. Can you love him the way I love him? Probably not. I see what I see in that man and I overlook other things that others might find as blaring faults. It is always the filter we are looking through that we must take into consideration; our emotions, our reasoning and our habits.
If one believes they are telepathic and others accept it as truth, does it matter that someone else does not believe it? Does that make it any less true in reality even? That's the real question I have--how powerful is belief really?
Many people in this world believe in God, does it matter whether its real or not? People make things real...that's what I believe. We are our own creators and destroyers and we are scared to the death about it. That's why we war and that's why we fight progress--we're afraid of our potential as human beings.
So although I may not agree with everything a soundthinker or clairvoyant might state, I would rather research potential than discount it on practicality. What is practical today will indeed not be pratical tomorrow, one only need look at a turn of the twentieth century Sears Roebuck Co. catalogue and have that proven rather quickly. I think an attitude of flexibility is well in order and it is worth the money and time to discover not our limitations but perhaps our possibilities.
And I applaud anyone who believes there are possibilities for humanity, that means there is faith, and may Earth help you if we all lose that completely. Humanity needs all the help it can get.
And do I believe in telepathy? Not at the moment, but I don't know about tomorrow, maybe I will.
Doesn't a person have a right to change their mind?
