One for the skeptics

It turns out everybody can read minds

I guess some of us are better at it than others.

Interesting article there. It might help explain how psi-mechanics can use their devices but other psychics can't.

It could also explain the various psycological theories of the collective unconsious, where we are all connected at a low level as a species. I think what this really is, is someone along Debunker's path generating a scientific explanation for abilities we already have seen generated by induviduals.

This could explain how some people are totally inept when dealing with others (low mirror neuron count and poor social experience) while others have a significant reaction to others thoughts; high mirror neuron count and vast social experience.

I am curious to see if these mirror neurons have any effect on other "psychic" powers such as object reading or the ability to sense the supernatural. Is this the part of the brain that those with psychic powers use to react to the supernatural.

This may explain why magic and psionics do not seem strong in as lab, but seem to spark when in the presence of supernatural forces.

Do these neurons exist in what I have heard refered to as the "nega-psychic"? And if so, do the react differently. Mirroring their own disbelief into others.


I think it's time I did some of my own research in this area.

You do that research and let us know how it turns out.

Just use words most of us can understand.

I thought recognizing them as ignorant fools was enough.


Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Debunker's evil opposite.

Perhaps this is a form of deeply rooted Panzaism coupled with latent psychic talents?
