The science delusion is the belief that science already understands the nature of reality, in principle, leaving only the details to be filled in. But recent research has revealed unexpected problems at the heart of physics, cosmology, biology, medicine and psychology.

Rupert Sheldrake turns the ten fundamental dogmas of science into questions, opening up startling new possibilities. Dr Rupert Sheldrake is a biologist and author of The Science Delusion.

Each LFS evening begins with the Fortmanteau, our monthly summary of strange news stories.

Time-Slips

Time-Slips 26 November 2024 In the early years of the 20th century, two ladies visited the gardens of Versailles. Whilst there, they apparently slipped back in time to the late 18th century. They published a book describing their experience, which in later years was debunked as misperception and hallucination. Case closed. Or is it? There are a plethora of similar contemporary reports of apparent slips through time, from brief glimpses to full interactive experiences. Most reports describe features from the past, but a few describe possible slips forward in time. Dr Ann Winspe r has been researching people apparently travelling through time for the last 20 years. She describes some of these fascinating cases and looks at possible explanations, as well as how not all can be explained through misperception and psychology.
