Taboo of Psychic Phenomena

I recommend the video of a lecture by Dean Radin "Science and the Taboo of Psi". Please go to youtube (link here), since the embed function was disabled for this one. Time 95 minutes. Here's another video with Radin, on the general prejudice and taboo concerning psychic phenomena, and the need to separate at least some of these from uneducated superstitions. "There's an invisible college that's beginning to evolve... I'm projecting that in 5 or 10 years the invisible college will grow so large, and the pressure will be so large, that the taboo will be addressed. Even at this point the taboo is so strong, that you're not even supposed to talk of taboo!" And further on, "In the beginning any new application... will be perceived as whacky. And then somebody will get a Nobel price and it's not whacky anymore. Which is not to say that all new ideas are equally valid, because some of the new ideas coming are indeed quite whacky. And it's only through the passage of time and the value of science, which is to continually confirm, that the idea is true or not, that we begin to get a sense of what is likely to be true versus what is likely to be a phantasy." Go ahead and enjoy! Time just over 20 minutes.



Thanks to ~C4 for heads up.
