this is pretty exciting - they can cause people to have "religious" and "paranormal" experiences in experiments now! There was a case of a small girl who couldn't get to sleep because she felt an unseen ghostly presence in her chamber. It turned out her electric ALARM CLOCK was sending out the right combination of frequencies to stimulate her frontal lobe and this was causing the sensation. A simple removal of the alarm clock and the eerie feeling ceased immediately! Pretty rad huh? |

or she could have just turned the alarm off, that would have helped her get to sleep |

not that your topic isn't interesting, but it doesn't sound exciting to me. we already knew that there are chemical catalysts for religious experience, and we knew that there are brain functions for every conscious experience. "...the right combination of frequencies to stimulate her frontal lobe and this was causing the sensation. A simple removal of the alarm clock and the eerie feeling ceased immediately!" a removal of hte frontal lobe would have worked just as well i imagine. |

except for the potential side-effects |

who's to say that the stimulation of her frontal lobe was not a catalyst or enabler for the perception of something that would ordinarily be subtle to the degree of imperceptibility, rather than the implied source of some hallucinatory delusion? nevertheless, it is an interesting case. i'd like to see some more detail on it. |

it is a serious inquiry, though, the effect of electromagnetic fields on human experience and development. not to imply a link, since there may be many sources of influence, but this makes me think of the epidemic of depression in the united states, 20 million people clinically depressed, and by far the most frequently prescribed drugs are antidepressants. that's an interesting topic in and of itself, i'd be interested to hear what people here think of that. |

this is quite possibly agreeable imo, but then you have to state what you consider to be factual and what not. this little disagreement between fellow debaters is probably the first thing you should concern yourself with, before you can decide whether an experience is fact or hallucinatory, no? |
