Your Mind is Eternal
The greatest discovery in all of human history was expounded by quantum physicist Max Planck in the early part of the twentieth century. I am told that he wasn’t the first to put it forth, but his experiments demonstrated it so conclusively that he was frank to say it aloud. Sadly, he was altogether ignored. […]

Willful Scientific Blindness
A few weeks ago I talked about some of the ways in which the fact that mainstream science has ignored the afterlife evidence has made scientists unable to understand some seemingly unrelated things. When you arbitrarily choose to ignore all evidence related to a major aspect of reality, then naturally your understanding of the rest […]

What It’s Like to Witness a Death
Having talked last week about how it feels to die, let’s consider now the experience of being at the bedside of someone you love who is about to embark on that universal journey. Of course, some deaths are going to feel tragic. People who die unexpectedly or out of generational order are likely to distress […]

A book published in 2000 called Diagnosing Jefferson makes a compelling case that our third president was another extraordinary man whose blessing […]

The Sally Hemings Question
It doesn’t matter to me who fathered Sally Hemings’s children. Seeing how devastated Thomas Jefferson was by the death of his wife at thirty-three, at one time I even thought that if he had managed to find a new love later in life, that was fine and none of us had the right to judge […]

Mainstream Science is Off the Rails
I love popular science magazines. Scientific American is my favorite, but Discover, NewScientist, and Science News also are immensely entertaining. I began reading popular science a couple of decades ago as I tried to puzzle out the physics of the realities into which we graduate at death. What I learned was that many of the […]

Psychic Mediums
Most afterlife researchers are skeptics. We have found tantalizing parts of one gigantic truth, and since we know that the rest of it still must be out there, we won’t settle for less. So I have a confession to make. For decades I was skeptical that most psychic mediums actually were in contact with the […]
