  • How could particular aspects of ESP be scientifically measured?

    This was roughly a question that came from an essay on a critical thinking assignment (that is beside the point).

    I concluded that there was little to no scientific proof of ESP powers--psychokinesis especially.

    I did however view a video on youtube that showed old grainy clips of a woman who was apparently using the energy of her body to repel a pencil/pen.

    I'm skeptical of the footage, because it's a fickle topic and it seemed really biased, as well as a hoax (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jgMzcRxxEE).

    Quite frankly, I think it's hogwash, but I'd love to hear what you folks think/believe.
