Have many sceptics applied for the million dollar reward if they can rebut the evidence for the afterlife?
Oh yes, a few did. Whenever I inform them what they have to do – rebutting mostly the objective evidence I included in my book on the net, they do not write back. A few academic sceptics complained that the test ‘proving beyond possible doubt’ is impossible. Their claim is “nothing is absolutely certain in this world.” My reply is that this is the test that the skeptics are demanding! And since the cash reward is very high so must be the test of validity. Besides, I stated, of course, there are certain things which are absolutely certain in this world. For example, I made the statement about the mortality of the human condition -we humans physically die. One American Ph.D sceptic tried to argue with me that no one can prove that!! I just replied, if he could show me that President Kennedy is not dead, or Princess Diana or Mother Theresa or Elvis Presley are not dead, my sponsors will gladly hand over the million dollars!
