[QUOTE="sabrinathecat, post: 6276067, member: 89838"] Has it occurred to you that maybe you are the one being deceived? If all this paranormal research has reached scientific proof, why is it not in the news. You claim "double standard" is in effect, but why? Yes, huge volumes of research have been done. Do they [I]Prove[/I] the existence of what you are claiming, or simply support the possibility. Take the occam's razor test. Does it really seem likely that the entire field of science and media are out to suppress what has been folklore for centuries? That all those people are calling it bunk? Or could it be that the phenomenon could not be proven or verified under laboratory conditions, and was therefore shoved aside into at best Fringe science? Unfortunately, my preferred examples and chain of comments without delve into criticizing religion, which is not allowed on this board. There are a number of things that science and common culture used to say were just rumors and tall tales that have since been verified. (The concept of White Squall is the first that comes to mind). There are more that just aren't. Sasquatch videos rank pretty high in that. While it is scientifically impossible to prove a negative, every video that has turned up has been dissected and debunked through video analysis. UFOs: well, what does the U stand for? Unidentified. The second you say "I don't know what that is." you're done. You don't know what it was. This is not proof that you saw an alien space ship--it just means you maybe saw something. That's it. You're done. Anything else is speculation and guesswork. [/QUOTE]
