A New Perspective

I've been reading The Afterlife Experiment by Gary Schwartz and have finally reached the end. I would highly recommend this book to anyone with an open mind towards psychic phenomenon. Dr. Schwartz details a scientific study that he and his partner conducted to determine whether or not the "so-called" psychics such as John Edwards are telling the truth about their ability to "see beyond". I'll let you read what they determine.

Imagine, however, what it would mean if someone could "scientifically" prove that the soul continues to live? How would that change your behavior? Would that alter your priorities in life? Would that calm you or unnerve you?

Here's another thing to consider, why is it that we can readily believe that atoms exist although most of us have never seen one and really don't understand the science that "proves" their existence, and yet, Dr. Schwartz's work is disregarded, probably by most of my readers, as implausible without even being read? Where is the disconnect?

Thoughts anyone?
