I was watching a video of Joe Rogan interviewing Rupert Sheldrake. And Sheldrake started talking about some experiments being done by a Cornell professor with regards to precognition. I found it fascinating.
The way the experiment was done is participates are connected to a lie detector device. The participates are then shown a sequence of pictures. Most pictures are ordinary. But some pictures are showing hardcore pornography. People participating in the experiments have an uncontrollable reaction to the pornographic image. People just love porn whether they admit it or not.
The amazing thing about these experiments is the lie detector starts measuring an emotion response FIVE SECONDS before the picture is shown. And even more amazing the computer picks the picture at random and the next picture is NOT chosen until milliseconds before it is shown.
I imagine most staunch philosophical materialists are just going to assume this is pure BS because it violates their own personal dogma. The thing is these experiments are using well accepted methods of analysis and are showing unequivocal and repeatable results well above random guessing. The science is telling us something whether we like it or not.
Here's a presentation by professor Bem. He starts talking about these experiments at the 19:35 mark (19th minute 35th second).
Here's the original video I was watching. Rupert Sheldrake explains the future feeling experiments in better detail start 2:16:30 mark (2 hour, 16th minute, 30th second):
Another interesting bit in the video above the 2:21 mark (2 hour, 21st minute) where Sheldrake talks about tennis players reacting to a 90 mph tennis ball serve is interesting.
Daryl Bem's works is based on Dean Radin's work. Here's a presentation of Dean Radin's work.
