We're not going to like throw this out.

Then all of a sudden you get, you start to, you can have a science of like explaining a lot of these synchronicities, a lot of these sort of, you know, mass experiences that seem otherworldly a la what happened in Portugal and, you know, the Fatima sighting of, you know, the Virgin Mary or whatever.

And, you know, 1917, like all, all of these things become, become more realistic in that sort of world model.

Yeah.

So I find that to be an extremely intriguing inroad into whatever's happening in reality.

And UFOs would be a byproduct of that.

And then a lot of other weirdness in reality would be byproducts of that.

But it ends up in a...

plasticity to reality that I don't think a lot of people really want to face.

It's like sort of a very jarring thought.

And I understand that.

And I also don't think there's a great... So it's like we were talking about a buildup of anomalies break the paradigm.

So like blackbody radiation in the 1870s, it broke electromagnetism, classical electromagnetism.

in a way that you needed quantum mechanics to explain.

Same with the orbit of Mercury.

So I would say the parapsychology stuff is data that breaks general relativity, quantum mechanics, basic materialist reductionism, but in a way that will be explained by future theory.

But the reason we don't accept it is because we don't have a theory that neatly explains it.

And until you have a theory that neatly explains anything, it's just...

yo, it's an anomaly, you know, and so you can explain it away.

But I would say we systematically discard those.
