He has a pretty remarkable history and academic qualifications in more than 1 field. I don't know of any plains people, Lakota or Blackfeet, who would call that a peace pipe. That is a whole other tradition. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chuunupaa is a Ceremonial Pipe for all ceremonies and consultations. Oh good, good to know, serves the same purpose as a hookah pipe? Celebrate! But not for predicting the future, ok I get it now, thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. A C'anupa, the spelling I picked up, is a sacred pipe used in ceremonies as Piney has said. Some might tell you that the pipe has a spirit of its own that is neither good nor bad, just power. Some folks use it as a focus for their personal power, . At least for the Lakota and the associated people that practice sweats in the Lakota tradition, it is a sacred object. Now me, I am no expert, I am just a white guy who has spent some years sweating with friends, sharing some good times and bad and listening to what they have to say 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how the Lakota pronounce it and you are spot on. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No? Here's an experiment anyone can try including you. Before you go anywhere, think about finding a quarter. Then as you're walking keep a casual eye on the ground. See how much change you can find in a week, month, or year. Get back to me on this after a week of trying. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well to repeat myself then Rational Wiki is nothing more than a collection of anti-paranormal commentators in one place. 'Rational' to me requires giving all sides fair play. And they call those articles? 'Irrational' is only listening to the people you like criticizing the other side. For any mature observer of the field we see their formula for writing articles and just roll our eyes. They collect all the negative from typically the usual gang of pseudo-skeptics and quote them. It gives that group of anti-paranormalists and pseudo-skeptics some no effort required links to use on this forum though.

There is nothing on there that you can point to that is not factual. Got it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habitat Posted February 2, 2020 #65 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Prophetic dreams, I have had a number. The events could not have been reasonably foretold. Sometimes the information was even able to be monetized. Knee-jerk rejection of the idea is more a commentary on the scoffer, than anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it does is quote other pseudoskeptics. Ya, the pseudoskeptic probably said that but so what. Whether the pseudoskeptic was fair and correct becomes the real question. It’s pseudoskeptics quoting other pseudoskeptics. You’re not going to learn the truth that way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
