http://www.network54.com/Forum/thread?forumid=106337&messageid=1123910803&lp=1124075468 Essentially? I would like to humbly challenge you to test this belief, under laboratory conditions, using items you provide, with expert witnesses of your choice, at a time and location of your choice. Use...

I'm writing an article about the Million Dollar Challenge for my homepage, and I have some questions about it. Before I get into that, I just want to congratulate especially Kramer for the challenge. Especially the recent applicants in the "Challenge Applicants" forum have all been handled very...

Comming To An Atheist Near You... Is it a scratcher?

I think the wording of this article title was just so appropriate: http://www.opera.com/pressreleases/en/2005/04/21/

I have a friend who has been recording her deceased daughter on her computer, a reel to reel tape recorder and voice answering machine. This has been happening for about 2 years. She has written a book, she is in that movie White Noise - the trailer to the DVD and has a web site at aaevp.com...

http://www.majorgeeks.com It's under the daily downloads in the Way Off Base section, which is for interesting and/or humerous stuff the staff finds on the net. Pretty cool.

I have a challenge for atheists. Sit in a room alone and clear your mind. Get down on your knees and pray to God for at least 10 minutes. Connect with Him. Tell Him why you don't believe. Tell Him what prevents you from accepting His Son's sacrifice. Ask Him to show you that He exists. Tell Him...

In the Brain waves thread, mayday said this in regards to her taking the challenge: Since mayday is soooooo busy, I thought I would ask--is this true. Because I don't want there to be any obstacles for mayday to take the challenge...

Do you think there's any point in the Randi challenge ?

Ive not read through it all,but it seems true.But then I think he's a magician so...... http://www.jimclass.com/Challange.htm ;)

Believe it or not, this is NOT my first post at the JREF. it's just been some time, and I've lost access to my old account ... Anyway, I've been reading these Million Dollar Challenge forum posts with great interest, and I had an idea I thought I'd toss out for discussion. What do you think...

I am interested in finding out more about the $1,000,000 challenge history. For example, how many applicants have there been? Of those, how many were involved in a preliminary test? Are the records of these preliminary tests a matter of public record anywhere? I know Kramer has documented some...

After muttering through Godel I have decided to try something fun. Maybe this should go into Puzzles, but this is the math area... It has been said (somewhere here ) that a square cannot be a circle (sorry, a cube cannot be a sphere). Hence the challenge: prove (using the geometry of your...

During TAM3, I was fortunate enough to lure MoeFaux to the Monet exhibition at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. We came across one painting, where we profoundly disagreed on the sentiment of the painting. http://www.jimloy.com/arts/monet06.jpg Moe said that this gave her the impression of a joyous...

Can anyone think of a particular parapsychology experiment that's been done already that, if performed successfully in the company of JREF, would qualify for the million?

It is my impression that Randi hasn't claimed that his tests are scientific, but that they still strive to make the tests somewhat scientific. Perhaps what I'm wondering most of all is, what exactly is it that would make a test scientific? Just because a test uses specific scientific...

Any help appreciated. :D

Here's one guy's opinion on why people won't take the Challenge: http://gate8.com/bbs-tai/messages/5205.html I think he's been reading a little too much Quantum Mechanics. ~~ Paul

Well I am a firm believer that you should frequently question your basic premises and ask yourself “Could I be the one that is wrong?” So here is a simple thought experiment, try to pretend you are the other guy and ask this simple question: If Al Gore had been elected and had 9/11 occur...

I've been considering going to TAM in January. I thought, why not try the Challenge on a whim? (assuming I had previously applied) I could determine, from a laid-out deck of cards (50 or 100, to make the stats easier, and face-down of course!), which are red and which are black. What would...

I’m wondering if anyone, Christian or no, can take the four accounts of the resurrection and make them jive in one narrative they create. If so, how convincingly? The four in the Bible are, IMHO, contradictory, and on the Christian sites I see only halfhearted and leaky attempts at...
