New Psychological Research Says Paranormal Experiences Are the Norm, Not the Exception - Forbes

There was a time when science immediately and adamantly turned its back on any claims of paranormal experience. But that was then, and this is now: if you see spooks you may have Haunted People Syndrome. As off putting as it is to have our anomalous haunting experiences reduced to a collection of symptoms, at least science is beginning to acknowledge that there's more to them than deception and psychosis. However, we wouldn't recommend turning our backs on any individuals in white suits with big nets because reducing ghostly experiences into a psychological syndrome sounds like something that could slide sideways really fast. At least part of the concern here is the strict adherence by some scientists to what they "know" to be true, leaving no room for new knowledge. Psi and Science refers to this as an "ideaology of scientism," whereby maintaining the current database of knowledge is more important than uncovering new information. (CM)
