Does Noel Edmonds Have A Point?

[sp1814]

...or is his sliding dangerously close to David Icke territory?

I find myself liking his theory about the body being a container of continuing cosmic energy (no stranger than any religious theory), but are we really destroying the earth's electromagnetic fields? And is this more destructive that the spread of AIDS???

Maybe he is "looking for something". He used to extoll the virtues of cosmic ordering. I think everyone else called it Praying

[Baldric]

Another flake!

[DaisyNonna]

Needs the publicity?

[Svejk]

I once read that we all contain atoms that were in, say, William Shakespeare or Julius Caesar. Does anyone think that could be true/ or a load of botox.

[Svejk]

We are stardust, aren't we?

[Retrochic]

I think he has a point about negative energy. Everyone knows someone who is surrounded by negative energy (moaning minnies not necessarily serial killers) and after an hour with them you feel drained. Half an hour with a cheerful friend and you feel refreshed.

Load of old pony.

Svejk: that is feasable, a 70kg person contains around 10**27 atoms so there is every chance 1 or 2 of them belonged to famous people of the past or indee infamous people! in fact we probably contain at least 1 atom of every person alive at that time.

I think Noel should team up with David Icke. Either that or get back to his Crinkley Bottom (which must be even more crinkley by now). :-)

[gingejbee]

Yes..I always believe what an ex-DJ and game-show host spouts on such serious matters.

[jno]

Svejk, more than likely

I`d sooner listen to Blobby

[tonyav]

Nooo, he doesn't mention lizards.

[-Talbot-]

and once claimed the souls of his dead parents existed in two orbs of energy on his shoulders.




Nutter!

Existential shoulder pads.

Nice.

[Huderon]

In the very limited sense that we are all made from recycled atoms, he's right about the cosmic energy bit - not that I would call it cosmic energy.

As far as destroying the earth's electromagnetic fields, he's talking through an orifice in the region of his fundament.

[RATTER15]

Maybe he should try telling that nonsense to the family of the guy that died in one of his stunts on his "Late Late Breakfast show" (or which ever show it was!

[philkool]

He don,t pay his tv licence

Death may or may not exist depending on what is true and what the definition of "death" is. I have always put forward the view that death is the point at which the physical body ceases to be controlled by the brain. To refer to life after death is confusing because if that which we truly are continues to exist then it is going to be a different state which should no longer referred to as life. It needs another word.

I'm unsure I'd want to adopt Noel's view of it though. If death doesn't exist how come something happens when one dies ? How can anything be deadly is death does not exist ?

There needs to be evidence that WiFi causes issues. Such speculation is all very well but we have yet to see evidence of it. Electromagnetic radiation is natural enough. For sure artificial signals have a different signature; not so random, but why should it be worse ?

I think Noel would have to enlarge on his beliefs if we are to debate them seriously.
