A example (Ѻ) of “woo woo physics”, aka “new age physics”, a quote on energy and reality, according to Darrly Anka (Ѻ), a self-described “channeler” of Bashar, a being of extraterrestrial origin (V), a sub-branch of the overall new age movement, i.e. “new” appealing ideas of the ages, crouched in hues, angles, or aspects of reality, some or much of which tends to be distorted, biasing the presentation in a non-neutral anthropomorphic, often self-help, manner. |
“The stolen and perverted writings of Homer and Ovid, of Plato and Cicero, which all men ought to contemn, are set up by artifice against the sublime of the Bible; but when the new age is at leisure to pronounce, all will be set right, and those grand works of the more ancient and consciously and professedly inspired men will hold their proper rank; and the daughters of memory shall become the daughters of inspiration. Shakespeare and Milton were both curbed by the general malady and infection from the silly Greek and Latin slaves of the sword. Rouse up, O young men of the new age! Set your foreheads against the ignorant hirelings! For we have hirelings in the camp, the court, and the university; who would, if they could, for ever prolong corporeal war. Painters! on you I call! Sculptors! Architects! suffer not the fashionable fools to depress some powers by the prices they pretend to give for contemptible works, or the expensive advertising boasts that they make of such works.”— William Blake (1809), preface to Milton a Poem (Ѻ)
“Chopra’s [quantum spirituality] arguments are the very embodiment of ‘woo woo’ [or woo woo physics].”

“Thims’ thermodynamic coupling proof that ‘good always triumphs over evil’ is nothing but ‘calculus coated woo’, hidden behind a smokescreen of rhetorical mathematics.”— Ryan Grannell (2011), “On Human Chemistry” [3]
