Dean RadinIf you want evidence that paranormal abilities exist, Dean Radin’s groundbreaking book, The Conscious Universe, will supply it. Radin examined hundreds of well-formed lab studies and concluded that the performance of human volunteers demonstrated, statistically, such abilities.
But this article is not about that. Nor is it about woo-woo people who see extra-sensory influences everywhere.
In movies, the paranormal is usually presented as horror, something that jumps out of the wall and attacks people.
Otherwise, “paranormal” is used as a term of scorn, like “conspiracy theorist.” It refers to people who should be isolated from the general population, for fear they’ll spread contaminated delusions.
The media transmit this scorn and ridicule by choosing the most bizarre stories:
A Biloxi bus driver told a local reporter, “While I was eating a hot dog in the corner coffee shop, an invisible Martian snatched it away from me and shoved it in his ear.”
Underlying all this nonsense is a core subconscious anxiety about consensus reality: it may be a sham.
The laws of physics may be provisional and subject to suspension.
And worse yet, there may be people among us who have experienced what happens when these laws are suspended.
People may have experienced telepathy, accurate glimpses of the future, and other “illegitimate” phenomena.
