Yeah, Ken provided some cool info on the whole Texas Chupa controversy.<BR/><BR/>That's a very vaild point about the supernatural really only being laws that we can't yet define, and with which I totally agree.<BR/><BR/>What always interests and intrigues me about those who argue completely against the paranormal angle of Bigfoot, is the vehemence with which they sometimes disagree.<BR/><BR/>When it gets to that stage, to me it seems like they are reacting personally because the belief system they prefer is being attacked.<BR/><BR/>My own personal view is that there are many aspects of the Bigfoot puzzle that suggest living creatures.<BR/><BR/>But, paradoxically, there are certain aspects that are of classic high-strangeness and point in a more supernatural direction.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps, in ways we don't understand, both aspects are vaild.<BR/><BR/>But when I see people getting hostile to the paranormal theory, I see people who don't WANT it to be true.<BR/><BR/>That suggests bias. And when we're looking for something that is undefined, there should be no bias: just open minds.Nick Redfernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07199813303416083671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2894698457228353216.post-84143824239781193292008-12-02T10:20:00.000-08:002008-12-02T10:20:00.000-08:00Welcome back, Nick!!!I participated in that "camer...Welcome back, Nick!!!<BR/><BR/>I participated in that "camera" and "invisible" debate over at Cryptomundo. Even used your name as a reference in one of the posts. Good debate, but I DO think I went on a bit too much. I may also have muddled my message. <BR/><BR/>Both sides presented good points, but as always, the word "supernatural," and "paranormal," tends to get people's underwear up in a knot over at Loren's site. Personally, although I understand the rationale behind the empirical science/spirit split, I ultimately don't see what all the fuss is about. Like I posted on the threads, there is no such thing as "supernatural," only "natural laws that are not understood yet." Science and Religion/Spirit used to be the same---maybe it's time they got back together. 'Cause the current way of doing things ain't quite cutting it, mate. Anyway, hope San Antonio was great and I wish I had been there to hear the great Gerhard speak.cryptidsrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06184539509191478028noreply@blogger.com
