Andres, I don't think analytical disdain is at all an oxymoron; it is something I've encountered much in my life. I have an innate sense of things that, to me, are Truth. There has been some ridicule and disdain in this thread and others towards those of us who believe in and have experienced phenomena which cannot be explained by *science*.

I have written and re-written this posting several times lest someone pick it apart and not just accept it as what is true and right for me.

Ultimately, I think, it doesn't matter to most people what scienctists think of such things. People take the same kind of chances every day with modern medicine and pay oodles of money on radiation and other *chances* at curing cancer, etc. A good doctor, like mine, will admit when they do not know whether a treatment will work or not; so, it comes back to what one wants to put their faith in.

Personally, I am honour bound not to charge for any help I may be able to give. I believe that in giving, we also receive.

Thank you,

kat
