It’s not scientists who are the problem. It’s the “psychics” and self-proclaimed believers who are the problem. First, not only do (psychics and believers) completely invalidate their ‘experiments’ on a rational and scientific level, they don’t even try. Because to try (science) would be embarrassing. Secondly, psychics and believers completely rely on ‘emotional’ language, “feelings”, dreams, subjectivity, testimony, and personal experience. The more a phenomenon is completely subjective (cannot be reproduced in a laboratory), the more it can be automatically doubted by science, logic, rationality, and intellegencia.
Let’s take levitation as an example. People cannot levitate. It’s never been documented nor reproduced in a laboratory. People may claim it, but, no evidence or proof offered, ever. There are television magicians who claim it, but, they are rigged and shown to be rigged. Again take UFOs, levitating heavy objects in the sky. Not even the best human technologies have yet been able to reproduce the phenomenon. Thus even if it had any truth and validity, cannot be proved by science, and hence would be a ‘super’ natural phenomenon. That means it’s beyond the scope of human ability and intellect.
As I mentioned before, “magic” is traditionally the (mis)interpretation of highly advanced and supra-logical technologies. An ‘elevator’ would seem “magical” to a 12th Century peasant, even an 18th Century peasant.
Therefore if psychic-ism had any validity then it would be on the supra-logical, high intelligent side of humanity, not on the mediocre and lower levels. Thus subjectivity, personal testimonies, would not be readily offered as sufficient ‘psychic’ evidence. It’s not. Furthermore the descriptive language trend of psychic-ism would be instantly ruled out. Even if being a psychic were true, were possible, those using and duplicating it, would still not resort to personal testimony and subjectivism to convince others of it. This is why supra-logical, high intelligence, genius, etc rely on Objectivism (Science) and not subjectivism in the first place. Subjectivism is not convincing, to anybody but women and children.
I felt it, is not an argument. It is an excuse. Therefore you (psychics and believers) have no convincing arguments, no evidence, and must resort to descriptive language as the backbone of your arguments and presentations. It’s openly false.
