Alex Tsakiris: On this episode of skeptiko. The science battle. And a clip about a real battle.

[00:00:09] Clip: What the hell are you waiting, sir, waiting for watch private dos. How the hell is private docs

[00:00:22] Alex Tsakiris: that’s from the movie Hacksaw Ridge. The true story of a warrior, in this episode, we probably call him a light warrior. We’ll explain what that means in a little bit, but he’s the guy who in world war II, wouldn’t shoot a gun, . . But as this thing that I just played shows he had gained so much respect from his fellow warriors. That they wouldn’t go into battle until he finished. Praying.

I’m like I mentioned real story. This guy, private dos was real person. Conscientious objector. Went into one of the most horrific battles in world war II. Bullets flying all over his head. Pulls at least. 75 soldiers out of the battle to safety, risking his own life. Every time going back and back and back to save more lives.

Yeah. That’s a warrior.

But you might be asking what saw this warrior stuff. I mean, we’re just talking about science here, right?

[00:01:22] Mario Beauregard: They would try to. , tell her, lay people, you see he’s not a real scientist is more of a, sort of a mystic , but it’s true. I became a neuroscientist based on a few, spiritual experiences that happened in my life.

[00:01:36] Alex Tsakiris: that’s Dr. Mario Beauregard. And if you’ve been around skeptical for a long, long time, you’ll remember that I interviewed him 10 years ago. about his book, the spiritual brain and neuroscientists case for the existence of the soul. Keep in mind this guy’s not a religious guy. He’s just following the data.

So now Dr. Belgard has a new book and you’ll hear about it in this interview with him. But you also hear that. Although he’s been engaged in the battle for a while. He’s a warrior that senses that the battle is changing.

[00:02:08] Mario Beauregard: It’s very hard to be able to unite because there are many differences , even post materialist scientists include, people we’re not spiritual at all.

[00:02:18] Mario Beauregard: a lot of these scientists They don’t want to have any problems and they don’t want to go out and to face. Uh, they are not warriors, light warriors.

They are not willing to do that. but in my case, it’s very different. I’m all for it. I’m a warrior I’m used to it because I’ve been trained like this. . I had to fight for my survival. And so, it’s okay for me

[00:02:41] Mario Beauregard: We’re fighting with more than a material a...
