Can someone do IMA without accepting Qi, working with it?

the problem is with what passes off as science. I am an engineer by training and profession. One of my regular practice partners has a PhD and post-doctorate from Cornell in Quantum Chemistry. Another is an Engineer too and works on designing telecommunications equipment. Most real scientists i know are relatively open minded. Those who tout the "scientific method" (aka the vociferous skeptics) usually don't have any business or credentials to tout the scientific method. I take issue with that kind of science.

 

I agree with you whole-heartedly, dwai.
