Thread: Damn Skeptics......

In my opinion, the more rational, scientific and realistic Lucid Dreaming becomes, the more people will enjoy it. Why? Because a subject that has it's own sceptics takes AWAY the scepticism of the general public towards that subject, thus making them more open for it.

I defend what I know and believe as much as I can via the internet.

I am a seeker. I seek truth. I don't make anything up, I explore the secrets of life, I look for the truth like any rational and intelligent person. The only reason I get mad at negative criticism is because it goes against one of my major philosophies: never throw away an idea just because there is lack of evidence. Just because there is no evidence doesn't mean it isn't there, and laughing at something because its not generally accepted in our truly limited knowledge of ourselves and the cosmos is foolish, because the art of true science is the exploration and discovery of new ideas and possibilities, and the search for a greater understanding of what we are and where we came from.

By the way, you spelled skeptic wrong...

Skeptic? Maybe that's English spelling, or American. I don't know what language my spelling-checker is, but "sceptic" has as little red bar under it as "irony".

The Irony being, that you are being sceptic about different ways of spelling a word.

Yeah sandform but there are a lot of people that pretty much bash beyond dreaming in a form that they mislabel skeptism so you have to be careful about your wording because people can get pretty easily defensive.
