Things Like This Have Been Happening for Centuries

Some people who look at the posts on this site (particularly the photo summary posts here and here) may say to themselves: "He can't be getting such results, because things like that don't happen." But actually dramatic paranormal results have been happening for centuries. Read the posts here, here and here for a discussion of extremely dramatic paranormal results that were observed during the Victorian Era between 1837 and 1901. Read here for a discusson of near-death experiences reported in the 19th century, long before there was even a term for such an experience.  Read here for a discussion of astonishing paranormal incidents published by a scientist in 1900.  Read here and here for a discussion of apparitions seen by more than one observer at a time.  Read here and here and here and here for a discussion of people who saw an apparition of someone they did not know was dead, only to soon find out later that the same person had died.  Read here for two fascinating cases (one from the 19th century, the other from the 20th century) of people who reported that their bodies were now occupied by the spirit of someone who had previously died. Read here and here and here for the cases of world-class scientists who reported seeing ghosts or mysterious "materializations" that were utterly inexplicable, some described as full human forms that mysteriously appeared. Read here to read about the paranormal experiences of widows and widowers, a large fraction of whom report seeing or hearing their deceased spouse long after such a person's death.  Read here about laboratory experiments showing the reality of paranormal abilities.  Read here about evidence for precognition, some dating back centuries.  Read here about CIA files that contain many references to evidence for the paranormal.  Read here and here and here and here and here and here about other compelling evidence for the paranormal.

Why doesn't a person learn about such things when he or she goes to college? Because our esteemed professors hide from us such information, which conflicts with their dogmas about the way reality works. They don't write about such things in their textbooks, and don't discuss them in their classes (or if there is any discussion, it will typically be some brief, inaccurate distortion or misassessment). In this regard our educational system fails us miserably, for it fails to teach us about  extremely important observational realities, even though very sizable fractions of the population experience such realities (as discussed here).  Our professors kowtow to some sociocultural professorial taboo against the paranormal, even though privately large fractions of scientists experience the paranormal, as often as average people (as discussed here).
