Exploring Rationalism and Parapsychology: A Discussion Wrap-Up
This chapter concludes with heartfelt gratitude for a deep dive into rationalist science and its relevance to often overlooked topics. The speakers emphasize the need for further investigation into consciousness and parapsychology while introducing a related book and new academic programs.
Science, Philosophy, and the Afterlife with Chris Carter
Chris Carter is a physics teacher who was educated at Oxford, England. He is author of four books that make him one of the most significant authors today exploring the question of life after death: Science and the Near-Death Experience, Science and Psychic Phenomena, Science and the Afterlife Experience, and most recently The Case for the Afterlife: Evidence of Life After Death.
Here he share some of the strongest case supporting postmortem survival of consciousness and also presents the counter-arguments to several philosophical objections.
New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding the best evidence for survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death. He is Co-Director of Parapsychology Education at the California Institute for Human Science.
