What if you can make a thing come true by getting enough people to believe it is true?
A few other members know and it’s time for everyone else to take notice. The deadline is October 22, for reasons that I’ll make known before then. You should stay as open-minded as possible and understand that you’re going to have a hard time believing what is happening.

Is it possible that this is due to the very nature of the construct you have created?
Meaning, as evidenced by the form of participation you have chosen in this thread (and others?), your natural reaction might be contrarian from the start?

Sorry, seems I was not clear in my question. I was asking about what specifically in the document rang true to you not how you go about picking and choosing your truth or why.
Still after reading your post I guess you liked the basic premise of the project, it does sound cool. I could really see the appeal but I don't get the "knowing" feeling.

It would be along those lines. I'm not sure I have constructed anything.
My reaction is to be contrarian after analyzing.
For example, huge storm builds out at sea, millions of people pray, hope, send out positive thoughts or vibes for the storm to veer off, loose power and then it hits and devastates a coastal area. That to me says that wishful thinking didn't have much of an affect on it and I can extrapolate that to something like Project 89 which is based on the same idea.
I could still be proven wrong but that burden of proof isn't on me.

What if it was directly related upon the purity of intention? Wishful thinking I.e. hope is.... not a pure intention for the highest good.

But, even in your response to me, the same habits are exhibited.
You seem to be quick to point out the errors you see in others, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but what are the limitations you personally struggle with?
Such self examination is critical, but it takes a certain level of honesty and humility to discuss it with others. Its not particularly difficult to point it out or question it in others, but its a whole different thing when we turn the same critical eye towards ourselves.
I would also argue that the whole "burden of proof" concept is based more in internet debate than any sort of exploration, discovery, or scientific expedition.
Even in the hardest of sciences, the goal is ideally to replicate results rather than wait around for something convincing enough to change our minds. With the latter, we run the risk of embedding a habit, wherein validity of evidence is less consequential than maintaining the habit.
In arenas that we have yet to effectively apply the scientific method en masse, the "burden of proof" is even less applicable.
If we take a very simple and basic subjective concept, like a favorite color, anyone would struggle to provide proof. Arguably, its not even relevant to the conversation at all. If we then expand this to contexts without a general consensus by their very nature, it becomes even more lost in the milieu.
I made a promise to share what I know (regardless if it gets me banned), after receiving the highest achievement that ATS could afford.
This includes every Hermetic secret that I know, the truth about Earth and it’s history and the underlying “nature” of psychical, spiritual and sexual alchemy. This thread exists to inform those that wish to know such things, that I’m about to make some heads roll.

Of course they are, I'm the same person.
It isn't the errors in others, I point out the errors in the information provided by others.
You would be wrong. Science, requires replication.
I'm not talking about convincing me. I'm talking about showing verifiable results.
You are correct but then you have to at least have a logical argument.
That is not the type of thing I am talking about.
