UnHeard gives Anti-Science a platform. Rupert Sheldrake's Irrationality. Afi's Boxer Shorts

UnHeard, one of the better conversation platforms falls squarely on its nose with Rupert whining and hypothesizing about claims he hasn't backed up.

telepathy
This shows some evidence
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3144613/
These show technology reading peoples minds and using that information. This is not telepathy in the classic sense at least.

Telephone telepathy
A link to Rupert’s work on the topic, apparently with a sample size that may have been “too small”.

Deepok Chopra has a link to it, I will get around to him one of these days. I expect it to get loud..
All other links I found discredited it, or were news reports of the “findings”.

Dogs Knowing when their owners come home.
Rupert’s own work in this field. Some interesting data.
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/237233330_A_Dog_That_Seems_to_Know_When_His_Owner_Is_Coming_Home_Videotaped_Experiments_and_Observations
Some more traditional ideas on the subject.

Study it some more, find out if there is something there!

Panpsychism is searchable, basically it is a ridiculous attempt to solve materialism (physicalism) and dualism. Dualism meaning mind and matter are different. Dualism has a radically disunified picture of nature, and people have a feeling of mind seperate from matter.. Panpsychism is the band-aid that says “then all matter has mind” thereby keeping the feeling of mind, and unifying nature. It’s working back from the problem with your assumptions clenched in hand.

Sense of being stared at
Rupert’s own work on the subject. It was criticized for methodology mostly.

A more traditional take on the idea, and a look at the original experiment.

Mind Fields
These were the first hits. They sound pretty extreme, but start testing guys!

https://www.scienceandnonduality.com/article/a-new-theory-of-consciousness-the-mind-exists-as-a-field-connected-to-the-brain
A little more respectable look.
