“The whole process is paranormal.”
So we’re back to magic.
Just when I thought we’d figured out the physics and science behind it. Damn.
“So we’re back to magic.”
No Fuzz, paranormal is not magic. It’s just something we do not understand yet. I’ve experienced it a couple of times in my life where I’ve known something that I had no way of knowing. Most people probably have.
A situation comes to mind of the night my brother died. I didn’t know he was even sick, and I woke up in the middle of the night and told my wife that Bob died... There was nothing magic about it.
Everybody seems to have an opinion about water witching. Those who are absolutely certain it can’t work claim that science hasn’t proven it. While the other camp claims it does work and cite a variety of personal experiences to shore up their argument. I’m in the latter group though I have no idea how or why it works. I’ve seen it work so I’m convinced.
OTOH, I can’t do it to save my soul. So I’d have to say that some of the failed “experiments” mentioned in this thread may have been conducted using people like myself who couldn’t find water in their bathtub.
In my opinion, whether the process is a function of physical laws, paranormal activity ot “magic” is of lesser importance than the simple fact that it does work — for some people.
