Sceptics are getting normality; believers are getting normality. Believers just refuse to believe in normality. |
No I read the whole thing. Your point was that he was looking for evidence of spooky, so he should have found it by now. My point is in fact he's a debunker, his motivation is to not find evidence of spooky. I doubt anyone who is familiar with James Randi (and I am very familiar) would say he's an open-minded guy who has a fond wish in his heart to discover psychic phenomena. He probably believes he is doing a service by debunking. Fair enough. When I was a skeptic I was a big fan of his. I didn't think he had cruel intentions. Just doing what he thinks is right.
But, his overall intention is to debunk spooky. And that's what he's getting, his desire to at least not give away that million dollars is manifesting.
