Parapsychology, skeptical criticism

Hi, I put in a response to the criticism you contributed Martinphi 02:09, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Physics and parapsychology

Wow, that is a really good one. I think I have no sources addressing it. I'll see what I can find. Merry Christmas! Martinphi 06:55, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

New parapsychology crit

Yes, I'm not sure what you mean by "big guns," but I personally think comparing psi to quantum mechanics is probably a bad idea. It's like trying to explain Dark Matter by tweaking General Relativity, or something. There's going to be a limit to the expertise you can find on Wikipedia. If you know the criticisms so well, though, maybe you can help with the responses?

BTW, I've heard so many positive things said by eminent quantum physicists which are positive of parapsychology, that the last crit isn't gonna be hard (:

From the looks of it, really, this is a level of detail too great for this article, and needs a "Parapsychology and physics" article to itself.

Whoa, dude, I finished reading that, and it's very good, but it needs to paired down to a paragraph or two and a quote! Or, put it in a separate article. Martinphi (Talk Ψ Contribs) 20:33, 28 December 2006 (UTC) I'm saving it for reference myself, though. I've often wanted to debunk the mis-use of QM and other terms like "magnetism," that New Agers use.[reply]
