It is the controlled nature and discipline in these controlled experiments that I believe the average person has not looked into. Who is the 'better medium' who succeeded when 'seriously tested', and when and where did this occur? What controlled experiment hasn't been looked into? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papageorge1 Posted January 31, 2021 #53 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I watched Episode 1 tonight on the Near Death Experience. It is a rather pro life after death series but it’s data that does indeed seem to counter the materialist view of consciousness. This episode pretty much touched only on things I’ve heard before but it’s great to see this stuff in the mainstream like Netflix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaryllis Posted January 31, 2021 #54 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I watched the first episode about NDE's and the fourth episode Signs From The Dead. My friend told me all about the second and third episodes which were about mediums. She googled one of them and there are some articles about her being a fraud. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was so clearly a fraud. Doing mediumship behind a curtain. Taking people's money. "Ectoplasm as". Skipping it was a good choice. I haven't watched the fourth one yet.

I doubt that medium was a fraud actually if she made it into a documentary of this quality. I know the closed off box looks hooky but the consistent explanation is that any light will cause a sudden recoil of the ectoplasm badly injuring the medium. As suspicious as it looks these mediums (as told in the episode with the wax hands and feet experiments) seem to be doing things that are not explainable as trickery. The better ones have actually have been thoroughly tested in the most controlled conditions. Edited January 31, 2021 by papageorge1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Asking for a link) You should have saw that in Episode 3 with the waxed hand testing under controlled conditions. It's inclusion in the episode was supposed to show performance occurs under controlled conditions. Anyway one link discussing controlled testing of alleged real physical mediums. Also I think like many things the so-called skeptic community has done a strong job of making fraud the default conclusion for many.

Hankenhunter Posted February 2, 2021 #59 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Listen to these two audio tapes. Then cross reference the data to any other past life regressionists from around the world and watch the matching data pop up. It's quite amazing. Matching data does not lie. Even the most hard core skeptics have to respect matching data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed they try to shut you down without actually reading, or watching the material supplied. Ive found it to be a colossal waste of time as their minds are set in stone. The fact that they try, and fail to ridicule you shows where their maturity levels are. What's that old saying about resorting to insults? I use to see it in the pol tab constantly before I left. It's one of the reasons I left. To much negativity, and old baggage. Edited February 2, 2021 by Hankenhunter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was speaking about the folks that constantly ridicule his, and others beliefs. Their proof is coming, but the problem is that when they receive their proof, it will be far to late for them to take advantage of it. That's the rub. Namaste.

I couldn't listen past the first sentence of the panel leader's diatribe. It was so gooshy-wooshy crapolistic that I took the time to transcribe it: As I was coming to the conference I was thinking, 'I wonder how many on our panel consider themselves to be 'recovering materialists' who were once immersed in materialist philosophy believing that everything has a physical basis and that consciousness is an epiphenomenon of the brain and now have left that perspective and have a different perspective. ...and of course everyone on the panel concurs....yes they once did not 'believe' the correct way but had changed their minds. Well, I can tell you without a doubt..there is absolutely nothing that anyone could ever say or show to convince me of any of that life after death, consciousness exists outside of the brain functionality...blah, blah, blah. It's silly. Edited February 6, 2021 by joc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
