The Rational Response Squad is a group of atheist activists who impact society by changing the way we view god belief. This site is a haven for those who are pushing back against the norm, and a place for believers of gods to have their beliefs exposed as false should they want to try their hand at confronting us.

Deepak Chopra

Ever hear some of the wacky irrational things he puts forth?

I suspect he doesn't believe half of what he say - after all he was intelligent enough to become a doctor. I guess he decided psuedoscience is more profitable. Sad

Yes, Chopra is the king of

Yes, Chopra is the king of woo-woo (Sylvia Browne = queen). He was given space in a recent issue of Skeptic to defend his New Age quackery, and he squandered it by attacking skeptics as destructive people. New Age apologetics at its finest.

But in any case, there's nothing to fear from this man. You see, he doesn't actually exist. See here: http://www.randi.org/jr/2007-02/020207geller.html#i2

Quote:

Q: What happens when you die, Deepak?

Chopra: What happens when you die, is you return to where you always are. If you realize right now that there's no such thing as a person, you'll be all set.

Q: What do you mean, I'll be all set?

Chopra: Then if you shift your identity to that consciousness that is differentiating as observer and observant, you'll know there's nothing to fear.

Q: You have no fear of death.

Chopra: No Sir! Why? Because I don't exist in the first place!

If atheism is a religion, why am I paying taxes?
