Evidences Of Consciousness Existing Outside Of Body (Video)


Last post, the book 'Quantum Enigma' explains how physics encounters consciousness.  Now this documentary has people talking about being conscious OUT OF THEIR BODIES.  This extraordinary documentary made by BBC explores cases of NDE (Near-Death Experience) and does it well.  There are a bunch of PhDs trying to figure the phenomenon out on both sides.  Just go watch it after the jump.  You know you want to.

Book Review - Quantum Enigma: Physics Encounters Consciousness


In the book: Quantum Enigma, physicists Bruce Rosenblum and Fred Kuttner explain the enigma of the most successful theory in science: the quantum theory.  It’s the same enigma that drove Albert Einstein to search for an answer in his later years.  Unfortunately, Einstein wasn’t able to do so; in his dying years, he urged others to not give up finding the truth behind the theory.  Let’s see if this book could answer Einstein’s call.

Quantum Mechanics Blew Up Hiroshima And Nagasaki Of Japan

Our modern technology won't be possible if not for the biggest breakthrough in science of the last century, the discovery of quantum mechanics.

That's right; your PCs, cellphones, TVs, DVDs, iPods, damn nuclear weapons, and almost any electronic you can think of are possible because of quantum mechanics. Some of its contributions after the jump:

Lastest Pursuit: Zero-Point Energy

Just ordered three books about zero-point energy; a possible energy source in the future. I picked the books based on their descriptions and reviews. They all seem to be mind-blowing to read. But I don't like the fact that I have like dozen of books on other topics unread.

The three books' links on Amazon.

Common Sense: Time Is The Same For Everyone


Fact: Moving clock ticks slower.


This fact is long been known for but hardly anyone knows about it. This phenomenon, time dilation, arises when:

Common Senses Sound Good, But Are They True?

Some of them are true, but some of them are pure BS. This blog’s purpose is to find those BS and attempt to smash them into pieces using facts and logic.

There was a time when it was common sense that the earth was flat, center of the universe, and orbited by the sun. It was very difficult for some to imagine the otherwise back then. Likewise, it will be difficult for us to accept ideas that contradict what the majority thinks. Still, as a rational being, I try to accept the truth. Although I still occasionally do things based on some BS common senses, I try...

Send me some common senses that you suspect as being BS and I'll do research to find the truth. Well... I don't suppose anyone will be reading this blog, so I'll just post what I think.
