What is a Skeptic

Tue, 13 Feb 2024 01:36:39 GMT

Hello members of the Paranormal Investigation Committees. I hope everyone is having a great start to the new year. As members of the Paranormal Investigation Committee, we tell people we are skeptics. Specifically, we are skeptical of people’s claims of paranormal abilities, whether it be the ability to speak with the dead, to divine the future from a deck of cards, runes, the motion of the planets, or the designs of the tea leaves in our cup. We are also skeptical of one’s ability to read someone else's thoughts or to project our thoughts to someone else. In my opinion, a skeptic is a person who doesn't believe something is true unless they see evidence. As a skeptic, you refuse to believe your sister saw a ghost — after all, she can't prove it. Skeptics are doubters — they need to see proof before they will believe. So, members, how do you define your skeptical self?

Just found this forum and was surprised at the lack of discussion and/or posting.

Spoonbenders

Sun, 21 Aug 2022 20:22:50 GMT

A friend of mine recommended this book to me, and I thought I might be interest to the PIC members.

Daryl Gregory's fantasy novel "Spoonbenders", published in 2017.

From the publisher:
Teddy Telemachus is a charming con man with a gift for sleight of hand and some shady underground associates. In need of cash, he tricks his way into a classified government study about telekinesis and its possible role in intelligence gathering. There he meets Maureen McKinnon, and it’s not just her piercing blue eyes that leave Teddy forever charmed, but her mind—Maureen is a genuine psychic of immense and mysterious power. After a whirlwind courtship, they marry, have three gifted children, and become the Amazing Telemachus Family, performing astounding feats across the country. Irene is a human lie detector. Frankie can move objects with his mind. And Buddy, the youngest, can see the future. Then one night tragedy leaves the family shattered.

Decades later, the Telemachuses are not so amazing. Irene is a single mom whose ear for truth makes it hard to hold down a job, much less hold together a relationship. Frankie’s in serious debt to his dad’s old mob associates. Buddy has completely withdrawn into himself and inexplicably begun digging a hole in the backyard. To make matters worse, the CIA has come knocking, looking to see if there’s any magic left in the Telemachus clan. And there is: Irene’s son Matty has just had his first out-of-body experience. But he hasn’t told anyone, even though his newfound talent might just be what his family needs to save themselves—if it doesn’t tear them apart in the process.
