There's great books on this subject; most notably "Leaps of Faith" and of
course, "Demon Haunted Planet: Science as a Candle in the Dark"
Almost every situation of ESP and mysticism are explainable and so therefore
debunkable. When shown the facts, almost everyone agrees. There is only one
circumstance in which on cannot un-convince someone. That is when they have
experienced it first hand. I have experienced a video-like crystal clear
death premonition of a loved one who lived hundreds of miles away and I had
not seen for years. I cannot ever be convinced otherwise. This does not imply
that this psychic event happened. It does not imply I agree with the turnip
that ESP exists. But still my memory of it remains untarnished, unexplained
and beautiful.
