it is all about perception then isn't it?
"Science & Technology: Cutting edge science and future technology."
how can it be evidenced if it is in the future?
Perhaps you don't like the subject, that doesn't mean others might not find something of intrigue in it
You can belittle others for their belief but without knowing absolutely one way or the other how can you claim to have an open mind?
I checked the link in your siggy, see my post above. Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are correct and that goes for everyone, myself included.
None of us are infallible so maybe you should cut some slack when others are seeking?
It goes a long way towards understanding the unknown rather than that head in the sand outlook.
You can easily ignore the thread and let those who are interested explore all avenues of understanding it.
Is he a fraud? Probably, isn't that the way of mankind? That lack of morality and integrity is evidenced everywhere.
But what if?
But what if he isn't?

The language barrier is not the problem, it's the ridiculous assertions unsupported by evidence followed by the condescending "oh one day you'll realise you were wrong when your vibrational energy maxes out on Bigfoot's birthday" claptrap that is the problem. This is the SCIENCE forum, claims must be supported by evidence.
as i said, and this will not be enough for you, there will be no evidence until the mass consciousness is ready for contact until than its a free choice to believe in whatever you want to believe..
but my "evidence" is and was the way he speaks
i never perceived a human who can talk about difficult concepts so elegantli and of course i never saw someone LIE for more than 4 minutes without reveal it through pauses, through the voice or through reactions..
the moment that totally broke my "scepctic frontier"
was when he was asked if something like astrology exists on their planet..and his answer opened a door for me to at least start to question my scepticism..and after hours and hours of listening to him..the barrier fell totally

WOW...no freaking human ...can flow like that in all kind of topics...SHOW ME ONE!
You just cant ...you can show me a lot of frauds but not a genius like this ....believe me : i never trusted anyone ..i can see lies...this is the first and only "master" i ever had.
because he is the best source i ever saw..and i saw a lot...believe it or not..listen to the stuff

So you expect me to believe what you say without any evidence? That's pretty darned closed minded to expect me to shut off all other avenues of explanation and take yours as some timeless truth. You make claim after claim without so much as a shred of evidence and have the audacity to accuse those who don't just blindly accept your claims without question as being closed minded. Ironic, really.

absence of proof is not proof of absence.
While some can hold a mentality that they are all-knowing when proven wrong their egos are so massive that taking that kind of a hit to their psyches is beyond reason.
Trying to rationalize with this kind of irrational outlook is an exercise in futility and you will find that all you are left with is talking at others (while they even bother to talk to you that is) until all you are left with are clones of yourself.
You say it sounds absurd that the future can't be evidenced and yet perhaps you can bless us with your wisdom in this matter?
Give us an example of a future that you can predict maybe? Don't forget it requires sourcing and the scientific method not to mention peer review. That to me is the epitome of absurdity.
The OP is about a device that is easy to make but rather than even attempt to understand the physics you and the ilk you adhere to like parasites resort to shooting down the messenger.
That is your idea of denying ignorance rather than accepting the fact that not all is known nor is everything entirely understood.
Your siggy is a total waste of time but to you it is truth because you hadn't seen the means to attain over-unity and while I pointed out just how easy it is to achieve you reject the concept because it didn''t come from you and turned you into one who assumed too much about things you knew too little.
This Bashar character could very well be a fraud and yet until the device is tested and proven or disproven closing your mind to possibility is in itself the ignorance you seek to destroy.
There is a thing called inspiration that is drawn from experience and input from others. Can it be proven in a lab test? Is there any tangible reason to believe in external sourcing? What triggers the thought in the first place?
Let me ask you a question... is the face on Mars real? Now comprehend that it doesn't matter to me whether it is real or not. Where it led others that in turn inspired me is the end result and whether imagined or physically there is besides the point when breakthroughs are derived from it.
Had all dismissed it as a trick of light and geological weathering then none of what I came to understand ( a mathematical model that I applied to a geometric model was all derived from that face) would have even come to be.
What could ever constitute proof of the unknown? Opinions and verbal assault upon others for seeking is counter-productive to understanding. Why shoot the messenger or where the message came from?
So in this sense of what harm is there in keeping an open mind even in the face of the incredible? Prove it false before you brand it with a bs iron. But again, how can you prove or disprove an unknown?
... maybe by coming to know it?

ahh thats like a warm gentle breeze...
btw: i took this forum because in the et section i already made a bashar thread and there were of course more people who were open for the possibility of him being real. We had a long discussion there.
But the point for me is: i would love this guy to become known in other circles but of course i know this is not possible in a big scheme..but one or two people that are open to it and listen to it are totally fine with me.
Its not that i did not expect people to call this guy a fraud..my whole family and friends are also not open for the idea.
But i am quite sure: every new day it will be more probable that people give this a chance to let it atleast open their mind..we are in a time of awakening. Without a doubt.
And he is a great teacher..of course not the only one but the best i ever encountered and i was on a search for a long time for a "source" that i totally trust in.
