Besides that all knowing "nothing opposes me" opinion of yours. you do know what the burden of proof is right? it's basically that the person making the claim is required to provide some sort of proof or evidence to their claim and it is not the oppositions job to disprove what you have yet to prove. but for arguments sake im going to give the mass amount of evidence that shows that psychic phenomenon is in fact not real.

1) there are many,many studies on several psychic phenomenon that show that the psychic abilities is either not real or misattributed as something. Some example are psychic healing which has already been attributed as a placebo, mediumship which is nothing more then cold reading and other techniques(not psychic may I add),and near death experiences which also have nothing to do with psychic abilities.

2) although there are plenty of studies that are pushing towards psychic abilities, they are often filled with confirmation bias and falsified results. for the ones that aren't like this, they are not peer reviewed meaning that no one else has ever been able to recreate the same procedure and get the same results.

3) as much people claiming to have psychic abilities, we have yet to see one shred of concrete viewable evidence. if these "psychics" are such an expert in the field then this would be no problem to the people who obviously are good enough to teach and try it yourself is not proving anything.

4) the way that psychics wrongly define things we have already define is another way to show that it's not real. i mean really anyone who's read a physics book would tell you that phychics clearly use the term energy in a way completely then what it actually is. anyone who has read a physology book would tell you that the pineal gland doesn't do the thing you say it does but you still believe it anyway.

there is plenty more but ill stop because although you did ask for proof, your going to completely ignore it anyway because it's not what you want to hear and i understand that. for some reason most people seem to drop their rational mindset when it comes to things like religion and spirituality.

let me ask you all an honest question and i hope you give an honest answer. would you look at everything else the same way you look at this? for example if i walked up to you and said that i moved a mountain when no one was looking, would you look at me with the same mindset you have towards religion and spirituality aka this or would you look at me with the same mindset I have when looking at you? just food for thought

ps bored manic can you like read what I say in the full format and not cherry pick one sentence from it. there is a difference between the two, like I said before even without the technological advances or our current knowledge of the world, the evidence of the of the earth being a sphere was still there and people could still view that evidence whereas with psychic phenomenon there isn't evidence at all to even suggest the possibility of it.

Pss you should stop assuming because in every case you have been incorrect
