first case....... chessplaying ghosts
Yes. Correspondence with the dead proven by Prof. Eisenbeiss.
Who from the non-god position will correlate the simplest explanation with the observations? Two guys played a chess game? That is all the article outlines. One of the guys claims it was not him playing chess, but a dead person. There is nothing beyond that to examine. Not only is that not proof it is not evidence either. It is a claim.
A claim backed up with impressive statistics and Salient Points that (apparently) will not be explained by the skeptics in this thread.
There is nothing in there that comes close to science. These are well know parlor tricks. You really should look at what the amazing Randy can do. He will show you how to do this. In science the test would be double blind and not a set of questions you take home and return months later.
A telling clue is that NEVER in the history of the world has someone shown the ability to communicate with the dead in a controlled experiment. Those who have tried may have believed they could do it, but when they get to the lab they claim that "the psychic energy is wrong" or some such nonsense. If someone could do it in scientific experiment it would be huge. Just one time.
Eisenbeiss conducted an experiment by way of correspondence. If you are alleging an elaborate fraud, then where is the evidence for what you propose? There is none, only your presumption that this is impossible from which you deduce that it must be a trick.
It was not a set of questions, but quite the opposite. You have misread the Salient Point #4.
