The problem with your "challenges," Barry, is that they engage only with carefully selected bits of the evidence. That's pretty standard with self-styled skeptics, who tend to be so convinced of their mental acuity that they never challenge their *own* thinking. The other problem is that you create straw men to "challenge." As I've pointed out before, you have terrible difficulty telling the difference between "Maharishi sez..." and "What MMY sez is true." You just aren't what one would call a rigorous thinker. You're the last person who should be accusing anyone else of being intellectually lazy.
