In a field of anomalies we often embrace the narrative, the made-up story that makes all the pieces of the puzzle fit together. This is largely due to having no better explanation for events; it’s just a whole lot easier to be told what’s going on than ponder out the details for ourselves. It’s also far less unsettling to tell ourselves a tidy story, even an odd one, than to go to bed with the understanding that, to quote Esoterx, “sh– happens, and sometimes it’s weird.” But a group of doctors want to dig deeper into that weirdness and make it mainstream: Charlottesville Psychiatrists Challenge Official Reality. NDEs, reincarnation, and meaningful coincidences occur too frequently to be dismissed. These psychiatrists all believe it’s time to challenge the current scientific paradigm, which not only means funded research but an added level of respectability to a field of study that has in the past ended perfectly decent careers. (CM)
