First of all what part of spirituality supports putting down people
who don't see things your way? There is no reason to be a dick,
we're just talk'n here.
Here are some questions about the research:
Who is trained in this field to evaluate the quality of the actual
research? I certainly am not. So I have to rely on the peer review
of the people who published it. Did you even go to their site to
see WHERE it was published? The International Journal of Dream
Research is a Website that has been operating for 3 years who lets
members "publish" research. I have no way to evaluate the two
German editor's background and their criteria for choosing research
to "publish" is not given.
The question is that why would David coming from a line of early
research published in mainstream publications with long histories
choose this one with no reputation and unknown editors in a new
Website project? And the criteria is that it not be published
anywhere else which is pretty common so he must have either been
rejected at mainstream outlets already or knows it will not fly
under more rigorous standards.
David's publishing record has taken a kind of downward turn of late.
Last article I heard of was in a pseudoscience/paranormal/UFO journal
IIRC.
Talk about water seeking it's own level!
