Dear Skeptiko Community/Forum, thank you for letting me in :-),
I have a long term project to produce a series of documentaries that explore the role that the fear of death plays in the formation of human society. My conviction is that its role is pivotal and that the influence is powerfully destructive in that (as i believe) fear of death is behind all of mankinds neuroses - put simply, i believe that it is the root of all evil.
One objective of the documentaries would be to compile a list of very well documented evidence that undermine the materialistic reductionist paradigm which states that annihilation is looming for all of us.
You might be saying that this is what is going on all the time and that there is no need for another guy compiling another list, but i would value very much going through the process of producing a compilation of evidence personally. For this i have gone over stuff like Veridical NDE:s, cases of reincarnation in children, parapsychology research, and similar stuff that seems to call the materialistic reductionist paradigm into question.
All this is of course well, however, there is one big disadvantage with compiling lists of other work, it is ... well, other work! I want to get my hands dirty and experience the anoamalies personally. I cannot induce an NDE in myself, nor can i die and reincarnate or similar so after much deliberation i have decided that the shortest route to personally experience that the materialistic reductionist paradigm is probably false is to reproduce some experiment in parapsychology.
So this is the question to you: In your view, what would be the most efficiently reproducible experiment that offers evidence of the existence of psi?
Kindest regards
Johnny
