I don't mean to imply everything has the same ontological status, but there are so many times I experienced something A) someone said was impossible or B) someone said was irrelevant, that was fun or transformative.
So I don't believe those claims more than I do flying yogins.

It feels a lot like that, sometimes.
But conversely, people claim things that produce only cripples and fools are "powerful", too.
