    Mod+ 283. RESPECTED SCIENCE WRITER DONE WITH “UNSCIENTIFIC” STRING THEORY… WHAT’S NEXT WILL SURPRISE YOU.

    Horgan is an interesting guy. And he sounds like a truly nice guy. I read his column regularly. This is one I really wish there was a full transcript for so I could pull quotes to defend the rest of what I say here. He is not a dogmatic materialist until.. in the end he clearly is. He is...

    Hi Can someone help figure out how to download older podcast that aren't on Itunes to my iPad so I can listen to them offline? Both Chrome and Safari just seem to stream. thanks Bob

    Mod+ 257. DR. DIANE POWELL FINDS TELEPATHY AMONG AUTISTIC SAVANT CHILDREN

    Just listened to the podcast and read all the comments. My first reaction is that bishop is right and many of you are being to jaded. Taking her at her word (and why not at this point?) this experiment is at least an order of magnitude more important than anything that we have had before...

    Parnia's results are in-he's a proponent now

    http://www.resuscitationjournal.com/article/S0300-9572(14)00739-4/pdf I thought the results were pretty anti-climatic. Probably not fair but I was hoping for more. Ah well onward and upward. BTW it never even occurred to me that Parnia wasn't a believer after hearing him on Terry Gross, and...

    Mod+ 255. IAN MCCORMACK’S EXCLUSIVELY CHRISTIAN NEAR-DEATH EXPEIENCE

    :) Talk about the trickster in action if that happened! But Sci that hasn't been remotely the case so far, at least according to everything I have read.

    Mod+ 255. IAN MCCORMACK’S EXCLUSIVELY CHRISTIAN NEAR-DEATH EXPEIENCE

    Michael this sums it up quite nicely. I would add that I think if enough people have them this will be enough to change the world.

    Mod+ 254. HOWARD STORM TRANSFORMED BY NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCE

    Alex somebody has a mind blowing, transcendental experience. They ARE going to remember it through a subjective interpretation (how could they not) and most likely they are going to try to change their lives as a result of their interpretation of what they experienced. Again how could they not...

    Future Interviews

    I want to second Sci''s suggestion. I read the article he links to today and after visiting his faculty profile page had the same thought.

    Mod+ 254. HOWARD STORM TRANSFORMED BY NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCE

    As a number of comments here have alluded to I don't see that there is any issue with scientifically researching the commonalities among NDEs, and individuals learning from and living from, the details of their own subjective interpretation of their personal experience. Of course one should...

    Future Interviews

    I think Captain Robert Snow would be a very interesting interview. Here is his background from Amazon. he wrote a very interesting little book documenting tracking down what was veridical in some past lives regression sessions he went through. The contrast between his police background and...

    So what's the point if you can't remember?

    Here are a couple of speculations. The first is some kind of greater version of you or entity that you are part of, remembers and learns from all your lives. In that case every reincarnation might be informed by past lives without actually having to remember them but the lessons are...

    Mod+ 251. PATRICIA PEARSON, MAINSTREAM MEDIA JOURNALIST TACKLES SURVIVAL OF CONSCIOUSNESS

    Really good interview. Interesting to listen to how much her experiences with the materialist community paralleled yours here over the years. The stats you guys discussed really are jaw dropping. But as you point out the fact that they are essentially ignored is a deep insight into the limits...

    Future Interviews

    Alex have you read any of Paul Davies books? He would be an interesting interview because as we talk about in this thread he is a smart, open minded thinker (not to mention prominent science journalist) who for some reason doesnt go all the way down the road of his own thinking...

    Book Recommendation

    I just read a great book that I wanted to pass along. Actually Chris Carter mentioned it to Alex in their first interview, which is how I first heard about it. "Extraordinary Knowing: Science, Skepticism and the Inexplicable Powers of the Human Mind" - Elizabeth Lloyd Mayer Ph.D. Its the...

    Thanks Michael. Here is what I sent him. Hi Dr. Loannidis I have been an admirer of your work since first reading about it in the Atlantic magazine profile of you. A science interview website I frequent, Skeptiko.com, has an ongoing theme of interviewing top scientists and researchers to...

    > may I suggest that you contact him and see if he'd like to come on Skeptiko. Sure. Id be happy to but I have never done anything like that. Do you have a "How to contact potential Skeptiko guests?" post somewhere?
