I have a lot of respect for Dean Radin as being a very meticulous & thorough scientist.

Many people in the public are still unfamiliar with his works but we can go over it bit by bit since all of it would be far too much to be able to absorb within a single day.

Most users on WP will see the words Noetic/paranormal/parapsychology and instantly dismiss him as a purveyor of woo, just so ya know.

I dismiss him as a purveyor of woo ... but if he is separating fools from their money, then so be it. Far be it from me to be a hypocrite on this point! Just thinking of all of the Bibles and Astrological charts that I've sold over the decades makes me giddy!

:lol:

Not enough "woo" in this thread... need to add more now. Dean Radin talks about "woo" in Science...

He's trying to justify his own whack-job ideas by claiming that everyone else does it. He's like a pedophile who demands an acquittal because a few pervy cops have visited prostitutes.

But he said "quantum" so it must be true!

I think there was a typo in the title graphic on the second video. It seemed like an "f" was accidentally placed in the first word.

Sure, why not, the title contains both Radin's name and Quantum, therefore also worth adding to thread.

This man's "logic" consists of many bogus syllogisms more or less along this pattern:

"Particle physics says all things are connected, therefore I can posit any kind of connection and claim it's true."

It's kind of a fun game to play:

The God particles in the Higgs field mean we're all connected, therefore mediums can connect with the dead.

Quantum entanglement means that everything is connected, just as a screw connects two pieces of wood. In the same way, you will understand that you are screwed when you discover your true connection to the noetic masters.


Or in it's simplest form:

Poltergeists and telekinetic soothsayers, because quantum.

I used to think it was comical that a variety of words central to the cult created by Joseph Smith were slight variations on the word "moron" -- add a vowel or consonant and you have an angel or faith!

In the same way, the new agey sort seem to have been pushing the word "shift" which seems to be a highly appropriate descriptive word with an "f" inserted in the middle.

The true believer knows they are deeply connected with the shift, because quantum.

Oil is bad for the head, making it so tempting for crank billionaires to put money in whatever random comes up, as long as it can be tied back to christian fundamentalism.

The "Christian fundamentalists" that I've encountered actually HATE anything to do with Quantum & regard it ALL as New-Agey (particularly those Southern-Baptists Texans & to them New-Agey is equated by them as being purely evil in every way). Fortunately, some of them have actually bothered to Question Their Own Belief-System, but man, that Black-and-White thinking is Over-Powered.

Fundamentalist-Materialism. Who'd have thought...

Materialism is the God of the Gaps in drag, now?

What a rhetorical con job.

There is an obvious difference: one of these approaches produces hypotheses which can be tested.

But if you want to believe in magic because quantum, no one is going to stop you.

Should such an interest ever produce any sort of repeatable results, do let people know. You can be sure there would be lots of interest.

I post stuff that seems to "rub materialists" that seems to have the "repeatable result" of their same-old responses.

Seriously, why not try posting a Radin-respecting video on any materialist-culture forums, and watch all of the responses be repeatably & demonstratably the same or very similar. ALL of them WILL have responses that contain the word "woo" or "woo-woo" and probably also "purveyor" within the thread-response. I've repeated this many times now.

So you've repeated the same experiment many times and received the same result each time - that's called "Science".

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." -- Albert Einstein

Materialism rules!

Repeatability is not the entirety of science, but only an aspect of science, one out of many methods of experimentation, protocol, observation, hypothesis, testing, formulating theories, refining ideas and even, gasp, QUESTIONING so-called establishment-beliefs. ALL of scientific-history is actually "Rife" with vehement-oppositions to paradigm-updating. Examples:

* "It is utterly ridiculous that heavier-than-air machine-contraptions could actually fly" (opposition against the ideas & innovation of the Wright-Brothers, and even then, when their demonstration made it into the head-lines of the news-papers, the brothers were accused of using invisible wires in order to trick the public into thinking that flight actually happened)
* "It is utterly ridiculous to think that rocks would ever fall from the sky" (during the midieval-centuries a fallen meteor forced the French Institute of Sciences to finally accept the notion of falling rocks from the sky [the phenomenon of meteors landing onto earth's surface is not a repeatable phenomenon but is instead observed and has a very low statistical-frequency of occurring within anybody's life-time for them to personally see for themselves])
* "It is utterly ridiculous to claim that tiny little creatures that the naked eye cannot see is responsible for sickness & disease rather than due to our state-of-the-art medical-knowledge which knows that it's really due to a poisoning of the blood" (the invention lf the microscope eventually forced the medical-industry to accept the existence of microscopic-organisms that the eye could not see being responsible for many illnesses & disease)
* It is utterly ridiculous to state that continents could possibly float (opposition to plate-tektonics)

Lots of etc that can be added to that list but regardless... CORPORATE-Version "science" sure is paradox.
