Survival or Super-Psi?
Stephen E. Braude, Philosophy Department, University of Maryland,

Even the most sophisticated discussions of the evidence for survival
underestimate the conceptual difficulties facing the survival hypothesis.
Perhaps the major challenge is posed by the rival "super-psi" hypothesis,
which most writers fail to confront in its most plausible and potent
form. Once the super-psi hypothesis is taken seriously, two major weaknesses
in discussions of that tend to be fatally superficial in their treatment
of subject psychodynamics. And second, analyses of apparently anomalous
abilities and skills trade on an impoverished and naive conception of
the nature of human abilities.
