Don-

I think the problem is that logic does not work very well in the new age environment. 

After all, new agers claim that everyone living today had past lives.  Mathematically, of course, that is simply impossible. 

So, they then claim that people didn't necessarily have past lives on earth.  They say, with absolutely zero documentation, that they lived on other planets in other solar systems.

The new age mindset is impenetrable.  It's like when people were absolutely convinced that the earth was flat.....no amount of logic would convince them otherwise. 

But if I say I had a vision of my deceased dog with its feet up on a footstool, smoking a pipe and reading a book from its well stocked library...well, certain folks accept that in a heartbeat. 

I guess that's what makes the world go round....or flat as the case may be.

Roger,

You eloquently illustrate the tempting danger of making one's position unfalsifiable in principle and therefore meaningless.  This trap can ambush anyone who seeks an answer for every troubling aspect of his position.  There is only one solution.  One must learn to tolerate the discomfort of leaving loose ends in the coherence of one's position and to humbly confess, "I just don't know,"
more frequently.

Don,

I take it then that you dismiss Brian Weiss, M.D., a psychiatrist, graduate of Columbia and Yale Med, and Chairman Emeritus of Psychiatry at the Mount Sinai Medical Center, as a New Age whatever whose mind is in a ghetto?

That's just one source.

Well?

Rob
