(un)Sensing Murder

[mstriumph]

.............A question for you - how many Scientists are religious?... and why...?

sheesh, fella ....... the Scottish Thread is THAT way, yonder!

[peasea]

as they can sense what's gonna be said, you mean?

Yuppo, ESP and all that. It would save them having to drag a film crew out later to the very spot where you gave them shit.

I have to admit; until I see a ghost I'll remain sceptical and Sensing Murder is in the same vein. If they could turn up new evidence for old cases I might take a second look at psychics and all that. If I see a ghost I'll be sure to let the world know.

Before my father passed away I asked him to come beck and see me after he died, he reckoned he would if he could. He hasn't, so I guess he can't, which means there are rules on the other side too, if in fact the other side actually exists.

You know what I find interesting? Nobody has gone to the moon with a camera to take piccies of the American machinery left behind. It's been nearly forty years since (they say) the Yanks went there and technology must have marched on a bit. How come no Pommy, Jap, Russian or German mission to snap a few shots? Not to land, just to take pics.

Just a thought.

The Japanese sent a probe and two orbiters just last year. The orbiting satellites don't have cameras. They're making a Gravity map of the moon.

The Clementine survey orbiter took photos of the Apollo 15 landing site in '94 I think. That was a US mission.

Sensing CTs.

I've just done some more research and NASA and India have both got survey missions underway at the moment.

We don't hear about them because no one cares anymore.

You again? Utter twaddle mate!

Perhaps you should look it up:

Then watch Derren Brown in action.

Perhaps you should just bite me....I don't care for YOUR opinion frankly. Badjelly said it all much better anyway

[ManDownUnder]

Perhaps you should bite me.

Am I sensing murder about to happen...?

[Badjelly]

Perhaps you should bite me.

Translation?

Hee hee - how the hell did you get that from all the way up there!

Anyway, I'm just being petty, as petty as he was when he red blinged me a long time ago...I can and so I have!

[Number One]

Just so Mr Monkey doesn't think I am asking him to make physical contact.....

Gotta love Urban Dictionary:

bite me

1. (v) A slightly more polite way to say "Fuck off you prick".

[Drunken Monkey]

Wow, some peeps really get cut up over red bling.

I'm sorry it clouds your judgement so...

Oh well, consider yourself bitten. Don't forget - monkey's carry rabies!

cut up...no as I said I thought you were petty for that oh and thanks for your second petty red bling ...note that I haven't bothered either time returning the favour - COS it is petty.
FYI - It was your opinion and way of couching that that offended me so NOT the red bling

Attack of the Unsinkable Rubber Ducks, by Christopher Brookmyre. Should be required reading for all that believe in "Woo" practitioners. Potential believers should also read about the Fox sisters (more here), founders of the Spiritualist movement and self-confessed fraudsters.

And last, but certainly not least, there isn't one credible scientific examination that has shown any evidence of psychic abilities, whether it's communicating with spirits of the dead or being able to conjure up winning lotto numbers. Not one. There's even a million bucks on offer for the first person that can demonstrate it under double-blind conditions. The challenge has stood since 1968 (albeit with a much smaller prize pool originally) and despite over 1000 attempts, not one person has ever been successful.

Funny that. There isn't one credible scientific examination that proves there is a God either, yet how many squillions of people believe that God is real?

[GaZBur]

Ouch guys.
Perhaps we should all back away slowly from the thread with our hands in plain sight. Nobody go for the red bling button. Most people will be entrenched in one of the opposing camps and almost never will "See the light" that their side could possibly be wrong. I know I am entrenched in my view and would take irrefutable evidence to make me change.
Just because I know I am right doesn't give me the right to be-little people with other viewpoints.(does it?)

group hug!
