Well, this quote from the article tickled my pickle:
" Gary Posner, an M.D. and leader of the Tampa Bay Skeptics, has claimed that believers in the paranormal may have a pathological medical condition, saying they may be “afflicted with a thought disorder that manifests in ... a faulty sense of reality” and their “irrational behavior ... may be more compatible with a diagnosis of ambulatory schizophrenia . . . than with mere naivete” (1978, p. 79)."
Do you think I could talk Scepcop into putting that on the front page of this web site right next to the article claiming that pathological skepticism is conducive to illness? Oh wait. Sorry. I wasn't going to say anything negative for a couple days but I did. I apologize. Okay, starting...now!
