    Does this Photograph mean anything to you?

    I have a personal synchronicty related to this photograph. I felt compelled today to look it up again and noticed that it was exactly 7 years ago that it was posted as NASA's star picture of the day (6/19/2013) Anyway, I feel like maybe there could be more significance I'm missing. Especially...

    French and Swiss vacation suggestions

    I'm hoping my European buddies on here might be able to offer some input: if you were going to spend a week in the French Riviera and a week in Switzerland near Sion around mid May, what should be on the must see/do list? Probably looking at area closer to Marseilles and Provence than Nice, but...

    Meme Magick / Cult of Kek / Pepe the Frog

    If anyone hasn't heard... a modern Cult of Kek (frog worship) has sprung up thanks to 4chan, Trump, Pepe the Frog, synchronicities, and ...dare I say, answered prayers... to Kek. Kek in his modern incarnations as Pepe the Frog, a cartoon meme, and as Donald J. Trump himself is a trickster god...

    Organizational modes of consciousness

    Over the last few weeks I've been trying out a new (for me) filter/model/pattern-overlay of the organizational forms: hierarchy and its antithesis, networking/crowd-sourcing. I've been thinking about the strengths and weaknesses of each and how these two organizational forms show up in nature...

    Violence, Pacifism, Collectivism, Individualism

    It seems appropriate to start a thread on the various viewpoints regarding the use of violence. Gun Control has come up in a number of threads here in the "other" forum, and additionally I would guess most of us participating at Skeptiko have had our values and/or spiritual sensibilities shaped...

    Floss

    First we learned the medical establishment was wrong about fluoride in the water supply and now we learn that there's also no evidence to support flossing. Only after an investigation by the AP was it finally admitted that there is no evidence to support flossing and this practice was then...

    Death of (a) Justice

    Was Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia murdered? The most conservative judicial roadblock to the globalist puppet Obama regime just died in my state this weekend. According to the former special forces millionaire Democrat Obama buddy/donor and owner of the ranch/resort where Scalia died...

    Glitch?

    This morning as I got on the forum I noticed that my avatar picture is showing up many places where it doesn't belong such as the top of anyone's quotes behind text. Inside various buttons and boxes... It's making it difficult to read some things. Anyone else started seeing a glitch like this?

    CDC Proves Flu Vaccine Ineffective

    As discussed in this thread... http://www.skeptiko-forum.com/threads/why-cdc-whistleblower-revelations-about-vaccines-and-autism-never-made-headlines-and-what-that-mean.2688/ We've been battling some stupidity in high places regarding the flu vaccine. This led me today to look at some of the...

    Book Recommendations: Fiction

    I've got some Audible credits at my disposal. What are some good books in fiction that incorporate some of the deeper philosophical ideas frequently discussed here? I'm looking for anything ranging from science fiction to historical fiction to political or spiritual allegory. A few books I've...

    Numerology

    I searched Skeptiko for "numerology" and turned up 0, so I thought I would start a thread on numerology and see if anyone else is interested in it or has any book recommendations on it. Numerology is considered a pseudoscience by "skeptics" probably because the rules (or grammar) regarding...

    Coincidence Bias

    How do we know if something is a random coincidence or a meaningful synchronicity? There is really no scientific way to tell the difference. Sure, we can attempt to calculate the odds in attempt to discern between the two, but unless the phenomenon is repeatable and testable, there's no way to...

    Strange Sounds from the Sky

    About every week or so I see something about strange trumpet-like noises and/or booms coming from the sky or possibly the ground. I have mostly ignored these reports because it seems that it would be difficult to tell if these are a legitimate phenomenon or an internet meme hoax, but apparently...

    Presentiment Paper Discussion

    This thread is to discuss/criticize/hash out the details of presentiment studies in response to Arouet's request to do so in another thread. Perhaps this discussion will make us more confident or less confident in the conclusions of presentiment studies, or at the very least we will understand...

    How many points define a line?

    I'm sitting here thinking about dimensions, and it just occurred to me that I've been thinking about them all wrong... I've always heard that it takes 2 points to define a line or one dimension. I've just realized it actually takes 3 colinear points to define a line or a dimension. A dimension...

    Martial Law Coming Soon?

    The struggle against materialism which destroys the meaning of life is closely related to the struggle for individual freedom. There are institutions in place that deny people access to truth which enables freedom. The scientific establishment and the mainstream media and the corporate...

    Could the 5th dimension be called Meaning?

    I have been playing around with the connection between meaning and story for a while and I've mentioned it in some threads on this forum. Here I will play with meaning and the 5th dimension. This is a sketch of an idea and not the finished product so please take it as such. When people ask the...
