Parapsychology needs paraphysics. Comment on question #13
My personal perspective regarding the question addressed by Jean Burns is that there is a serious conceptual difficulty in the way most physicists and parapsychologists are approaching today both quantum entanglement and extrasensory perception (ESP). By this I don’t mean to say that ESP and quantum entanglement would necessarily be related, in the sense that one could use the latter to explain the former, but that both phenomena can only be understood if one accepts to get rid of a radical preconception: that our physical reality is fully contained in our three-dimensional Euclidean space. From my viewpoint, this unjustified assumption is at the origin of most of the difficulties physicists and parapsychologists experience when trying to explain both quantum mechanics and Psi phenomena.
