New telepathy test, the sequel.

A new telepathy test: which text did I write?

Hi, I invite you to participate in a telepathy test about a recent event which might demonstrate a remarkable ability of your mind and of your brain.

I recently wrote (fully or only partly) and surrounded one of the short texts below (chosen with the help of a random number generator) on a sheet of paper:
(1) New York struck by a new terror attack.
(2) President T. said he ordered Homeland Security to step up his "extreme vetting" program.
(3) Will this work? The Uzbek attacker came to the US seven years ago.
(4) A better method (in my opinion) should be more based on history and psychology. Halting US military operations around the world against the "Islamic State" and Al Qaeda and ordering Israel to finally comply with UN security council resolutions would perhaps be an encouraging first step towards intelligence and decency, after the illegal US invasions of Afghanistan in 2001, and of Irak in 2003.

I ask you to say here which text I wrote.
 
Beautiful. You've added so much extraneous material to a simple choice between numbers 1, 2, 3 or 4 that you'll be able to construct spurious connections between any answer and the phrase you chose; all you then need do to give the illusion of success is not to make the effort to look for similarly spurious connections between answers and the other three phrases. I can only add that any sincere attempt to participate in this test will demonstrate a remarkable inability of the mind and the brain - specifically, the inability to learn from one's mistakes.

Dave Rogers, there is a difference, from a psychological standpoint, between writing just a single little digit on the one hand, and writing (partially or completely) a complete sentence or text on the other hand. I might perhaps prudently add that the circumstances of the above-mentioned "event" could make this difference even greater.

Rubbish. When you discuss the results of this test, you'll construct spurious connections in order to re-classify misses as hits as usual. It's nothing to do with relevance or psychology, and everything to do with introducing random information that your pareidolia can use for source material.

It is true (I don't deny it) that I have found that results of these extra-sensory perception tests generally need to be interpreted. I do this, not only for my research, but also out of respect for the people who have participated, often in a substantive way, even if the meaning of their answers is not necessarily obvious.

However, sometimes I get seemingly clear testimonies as well, e.g. this correct answer to a previous test:

... I do indeed have ESP, and know for a fact that he wrote 2!

This is not a telepathy test. It is nothing like a telepathy test. It is so full of fail that even the fail is failing fractally and recursively at the same time. The post has caused events in the past to fail unexpectedly. Please delete the post before further damage to history is done.

Yes, we know this. We also know that the reason they need to be interpreted is because you require them to support your beliefs when in fact they do not.

Deliberate misrepresentation of people's words is not an act of respect.

I note that you have conveniently not reacted to the end of my post #890.

"The embarrassing evidence, I prefer to just forget it", says the skeptic ;).

You've been repeatedly told that some posters are answering sarcastically just to mock you, including the poster your example was replying to who also claimed to have ESP and to know the answer was 2. As usual, you're counting anything you can pretend is a hit, and then claiming that misses are less credible. We all know that if you received four responses that were identical apart from the option chosen, you would count the correct one as a hit and find excuses to pretend the other three were less "credible."

No, we remember all the evidence, however embarrassing it would be to you if you were capable of embarrassment.

You keep posting that quote from calwaterbear. While it was obviously a joke, you seem to believe it to be true. Given that, it is important to note that he does NOT say you have telepathy. He says he has ESP.

Why is it so important to you that we believe calwaterbear has ESP? If he does have ESP, do you think that makes your claims of telepathy any more likely?

Yes, I would say so. I think that, in the context of this post by calwaterbear, ESP (= extra-sensory perception) and telepathy are essentially synonymous. Ignorant parapsychologists imagine various kinds of ESP, but, when you add two non-existent breads to a real bread, you still end up with one bread.

Wrong. ESP and telepathy are not the same things. Yes, they are two ways through which (if they were real), information could be transferred. But they also describe HOW the information is being transferred.

It is clear you find his (obviously jokey) claim to have ESP to be very credible. How sad it is watching trying to associate yourself with him.

No. You already know no one will participate and if they do, You will fail again and just retroactively make all the misses hits.

I ask for the sake of humor alone to improve your act.

Why are you so fearful of a valid test with King of the Americas? He believes in telepathy and that he can hear others' thoughts. You say others can hear your thoughts. It should be super simple for you to project your thoughts and him to receive them, shouldn't it?

Unless you're both just fraudulently claiming it, of course.
