If you read a few pages of ACIM does your intuition tell you that it was written by an associate professor of medical psychology, or by someone or something greater?
Is there a way to prove where thoughts come from, or where our consciousness resides?

Oh, I wasn't saying anything about Randi or even psychic phenomena, I was just saying the analogy didn't seem to work.
Yes, in my mind pure consciousness (qualia) is one of the most truly mysterious things. Thoughts however seem to be neurological phenomena as they can be modified, changed or even destroyed by stroke or other brain damage.
Thanks for the link, looks interesting.
