Do any "scientists who complain about Paranormal being with Science/Math ..ever visit the Science section?

Question

Seems like you're always on here. I can see pd doesn't...but most others of you have closed profiles. Just wondered.....I'm thinking about visiting the Science section. Will I be welcomed over there?

Answer 1

I'm no scientist,but I'm over there more then here.I don't answer many questions.I don't know the answers most of the time.I learn a lot though.It doesn't bother me much,anymore, that the paranormal section is here.Maybe somebody is learning something.It is kind of aggravating when folks post ghost stories,telekinesis questions and other supernatural claims.Then get angry when someone says it's ridiculous nonsense.That's what most scientists consider it.So it's what you'll get in a Science forum.It's sad so many find real science boring.If you'll take the time and really look.It's far more exciting and mysterious then the paranormal world.Even if you don't understand all or even most of it.

EDIT.I keep my profile closed because I have an open challenge to psychics.

Answer 2

Hello Denie if you click the Science and Mathematics link you will have all q&a on all subjects ralating to mathmatics and science.

I do not know why yahoo put this in the science and math section it should have been right under M&f and R&S that is where it belongs. I would question the sanity of those at yahoo.

Answer 3

Denie, you are in the science section.

I do visit other areas occasionally if I'm seeking specific information.  I haunt this area for entertainment.

I keep my profile wide open because I'm not ashamed of any questions or answers I've posted.  I am wide open to scrutiny.

Answer 4

Sure, that's where I got started. I used to have a TC badge from Science & Math, but that's hard to maintain. It's such a big section and there are many contributors. Just for kicks, below is one question I recently answered, but don't expect me to list them all!

EDIT: By the way, my profile is closed because I have a little thumbs down troll here in Paranormal (he knows who he is and so do I). I'd prefer that he not follow me into other categories.

Answer 5

They "accidentally" find themselves here because it is so boring over there.

Answer 6

They like to come over here and show how smart they are by telling us that we don't really see ghost and the like.  It's like mental masturbation.  The scientific method they talk about leads to nothing. It's the guys that blow off the rest of the field and branch out in a new direction that move science forward. The rest use the "method" to try to disprove the real movers and shakers.

Edit.  Denie, don't go!  We will miss you!

Answer 7

ive wondered about the same thing, specially with their TC badges being in paranormal instead of science, when they think that paranormal doesnt exist....makes you think doesnt it ????? LOL

denie you cannt leave us.. ..........(.NO)

Answer 8

donno, they might..

Answer 9

I just wish they would stop pretending the science and math section is their home and they are NOT clicking on the paranormal section.    It just magically finds them.

Hey maybe that is paranormal.

How ironic.

Answer 10

Hi! just thought I would hang out in the paranormal.

What, with not being a scientist. (seeker of truth).

However that is a confusion.

Answer 11

Yeah, I noticed they do...geez their answers can be so DULL!

Answer 12

you are IN the science section, mores the pity.

of course you are welcome to visit me in Astronomy (one click away!).

I only come here for the giggles, though i get plenty of them in A&S from the '2012ers' and the 'UFOers' and the 'Jesus created the world 6000 years ago stop telling me about fossils' dudes...

Bring an open mind

Answer 13

yup.

Answer 14

I started out in the math section, and used to visit there frequently. One of my graduate degrees is in mathematics. However, I eventually got tired of doing highschool students homework. It would be nice to get some interesting math dilemas, and real world problems, but 99.9% of that section is kids getting other people to do thier homework.

I drifted around in science and have been here for a long time, because nobody here asks me to do thier homework.

I also check in on astronomy, but but they tend to get the same questions over and over there. Much more so then this section.

edit: aside from that, many people actually appreciate me giving them logical and rational answers. I have had quite a few people thank me for pointing out that they were suffering from sleep paralysis, or other night time hallucinations.

Yes, there are many people who want to believe magicical things, even if its completely irrational, and there is no evidence for thier belief. But there are people who want to know the truth, not the mystical magical cop-out answer.
