    Rainbows above the Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle at the Moment of the Queen's Death

    @LilWabbit A combination of woo and numbers, found by googling "average rainbows in England". It might have been wise to start the discussion with this. Not only have Brits been creating their own rainbows, but there have also been over 200 news articles sharing spectacular sightings of them...

    Claim: The Indian/Chinese systems of nadis/meridians have been proved by science because of hyaluronic acid and piezoelectricity

    Yeah, the heart-personality thing may very well be a product of imagination, but I remain open-minded.

    Claim: The Indian/Chinese systems of nadis/meridians have been proved by science because of hyaluronic acid and piezoelectricity

    ...say... western science is matter-ialistic and not concerned with anything spiritual, hence anything spiritual from their point of view must be woo woo bs. I think that is the crux here. You can have any opinion you want ofcourse. All I wanted to convey here is that it is doubtful that there...

    Rainbows above the Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle at the Moment of the Queen's Death

    Thanks for sharing. It amuses me how quintessentially British it is to love small marvels of nature from the sweet comfort of one's home and yard. Hobbits.

    Claim: The Plasmoid Unification Model (PUM) of Malcolm Bendall provides "free energy".

    ...suppressed The Machine because they didn't want a New Age. -There will be passionate supporters who revere the crackpot inventor as another Saint in the pantheon of Woo. If you read this loosely enough The Machine includes free-energy machines, anti-gravity machines, and things like...

    Claim: The Indian/Chinese systems of nadis/meridians have been proved by science because of hyaluronic acid and piezoelectricity

    ...involving electrons. They seem unaware that piezoelectricity is reversible - what happens to the body when this reverse happens? Also - what's the pressure causing this piezoelectricity, and what solid are they claiming builds up the charge separation? Smells more of woo-woo than anything else.

    Attitudes towards intelligence

    ...mainstream 9/11 debate and I was the only engineer posting on the single thread dedicated to 9/11 CT. The single thread was intended to prevent "woo" from spreading to 'contaminate" the remainder of a high-standard biological and evolutionary science forum. I identified what I thought was...

    3 Videos, From Separate Angles, Of An Orb UAP In Moscow (2015)

    I think it's worth looking at the other papers these authors have produced. A.I. Nikitin, A.M. Velichko, T.F. Nikitina, I.G. Stepanov and considering them in their context as products of the Russian Academy of Science. There are a whole host of wild claims, over a number of articles, about ball...

    Claim: People can walk through walls

    It is worth noting that "there is a patent application" or even "there is a patent" is often used to make a claimed invention or technology of the woo variety sound like it has been proven. While the US Patent Office is supposed to confirm "usefulness" of a patent (and patented inventions that...

    Claim: The Plasmoid Unification Model (PUM) of Malcolm Bendall provides "free energy".

    ...really adds anything new, but it confirms Mr Bendall's ideas are perhaps unconventional. Only watch if you have a strong appetite for nonsensical woo. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvI1Hv7DD98 "Come Carpentier in Conversation with Malcolm Bendall, Randall Carlson, Samadhi Lewis...

    Claim: The Indian/Chinese systems of nadis/meridians have been proved by science because of hyaluronic acid and piezoelectricity

    ...actually interesting and I didn't think of that. However, what you're saying might not actually be true. Note that I am not taking this from a woo woo website: That doesn't prove however that you take on the consciousness of another person. It does seem to imply that some of your character...

    My journey out of the woo

    Hi, I'm a former "ghost hunter". I grew up with an interest in various creepy topics, but ghosts especially held my interest. Possibly because when I was young, my grandmother told me her experience with what she believed was her father's spirit after he died. So I watched shows like In...

    The Pentyrch UFO Encounter

    ...the large triangle was that she was seeing three lines of troops dropped from the transport planes. All the stuff about investigating the woods and the broken trees seems like magical thinking - they basically wandered around the woods until they saw something they could fit to their story...

    NASA Administrator Bill Nelson's views on UFOs, UAPs, and Alien Life

    ...would be real news, but that's not the focus of the program, and the phrase "life on Mars" gets magnified and embellished all out of proportion by the popular press and peddlers of woo. Source: private conversations with one of the science team who regularly calls home to talk with Mom...

    Claim: The Plasmoid Unification Model (PUM) of Malcolm Bendall provides "free energy".

    ...works both ways, then? removes toxic waste products while creating toxic fuel, hmmm.... it definitely looks like he's setting up to sell woo fuel additives. I would agree that the modification reduces toxic emissions, but that's mainly because it won't work. Beware of passing non-colored...

    Poll : Which DOD Navy video do you consider debunked ?

    ...a claim, and destroying the claim with facts, evidence, science, physics, and knowledge. Debunking is skeptics using science, and replying to woo posted by people who never did more than repost woo, in some cases... some invent the woo to make money, some let contracts to investigate UFOs...

    Jesse Michel's youtube documentary on David Grusch

    ...John Mack: [1:48:38] which prompts Grusch to talk about NDEs and Dr Eben Alexander's "scientific outlook" on the subject. We are in full-on woo mode now. It's a clue to Grusch's worldview, in the sense of what he accepts as evidence when he can speculate so freely about evidence-free...

    UAP disinformation narrative

    ...within the current clique very much suggest a narrative similar to Greers with regard to aspects of "The Phenomena" and it's possible spooky woo nature. Cynically one might assume this is to make sure the more woo based folks will feel welcomed into this new UFO fan army. Hiring of Greers...

    Claim: The Indian/Chinese systems of nadis/meridians have been proved by science because of hyaluronic acid and piezoelectricity

    ...behind a paywall so I cannot really comment on it (and not that I have any expertise in the field). With all the due respect to Pubmed, it looks woo. At least the hypothesis they make to find a plausible link between heart transplant and personality changes (supposed the effect they report is...

    Episode 54 – Mia Bloom and Sophia Moskalenko: Pastels and Pedophiles

    ...for me. that's why i'm trying analogies :) i'm not sure if "that's useful" is sarcasm... so you do know i'm saying that " these pastels might be nice and sweet and smart (not mentally unstable or paranoid, as you used) in most areas too. Just like the ones woo believers you actually have met"
