I think this is why the push for inclusion of Intelligent Design in science curriculum is actually being treated seriously, because a lot of people believe it and they're some of the people who can get it into schools.
And I think it hasn't had widespread acceptance because the credibility of people claiming to have extra sensory abilities is questionable, and expression of those abilities has never, to public knowledge, been reliably verified without more mundane explanations.
In other words there's not enough evidence that such abilities are real. |
What do you mean 'not enough evidence?' The evidence is all around us everywhere. It's in our language, in all of the Arts, in our religions, everywhere you find creativity, everywhere you find inspired thought. And still we ask for more evidence.
If man were restricted to the five physical senses alone, this world would be an incredibly boring place.
