Sheldrake has done some extremely interesting experiments pertaining to the human mind.
In one, he demonstrated that a large percentage of the population is capable of 'knowing' when they are being watched - even indirectly such as through a CCTV camera.
Yes, that one is interesting. It's on a similar line to the placebo effect, which works EVEN WHEN you tell the person they are getting the placebo.
Another that I found crazy was the capacity for people to "will" a random number generator to tend toward one value over another... an effect that worked even if they printed the results before the start of the experiment.

Yep, Sheldrake has highlighted some fascinating aspects to our reality. And he uses true science to do it.
The data speaks for itself.
I've never had that feeling. Perhaps other suffer from paranoia.
Or perhaps you are not among the percentile who possess this ability?
If you possess logic, you might research his experiments before dismissing them.
How about those times where you think about someone you hadn't talked to in some time and they end up calling you that day?
It has never happened to me.
Damn... Well, I can guarantee it's not an issue of paranoia, it sounds strange if you've never encountered it.
