As opposed to all the skeptics who ridicule experiencers? As opposed to all the scientists who have failed to do their due diligence in investigating anomalous events? As opposed to the immense push back against John E Mack, Harvard chair holding psychiatrist who's only crime was to say experiencers didn't fall into a known 'mental health domain?'
I am grateful you read my essay. I appreciate you wrote this grievance. What it demonstrates is you like kindness and fairness. That's huge, and there's not enough of that in the world these days, but seriously, the skeptics don't need your sympathy. They're pretty tough, and they're the majority. It's the people they silence that really need that kindness, regardless of what it turns out being, spiritual, psychological, or aliens- or all of that!, to such a degree people from all over the world are experiencing something, going back to the 40s minimum, which is bigger than a contagion, resulting in the greatest psychologist of our time, Carl Jung, also weighing in on it. Even though he offered a different explanation, he didn't ridicule the experiencers, and if you read his book, he leaves rooms for aliens.
