Subject: RE: BS: The Pope in America
DMcG, that's not really fair. I've actually been very careful not to be dismissive. But he's throwing his toy out of the pram every time his postulations are challenged. I've been told that I'm arguing against him from ignorance, that we're not interested, etc. I have, actually, spent time looking into his stuff. There is not much evidence for anything he claims and there is no general acceptance of any of it. I've invited him to expand on his take on consciousness beyond the confines of the human mind (the most interesting thing he's touched on) but he won't bite. We castigate Pete for his refusal to embrace science. This chap castigates us for refusing to cast science aside in order to embrace his speculations. It's called throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
