Wow, I topped all your lame threads even? I guess I go for quality rather than quantity.
But I think if we add them all up, you win.

Must I point out the fail in your faulty Randi assessment? Or can we just start with how you failed to link any mysterious, unproven energy to any action at all? You know - that pesky cause and effect thingie.
If this is truly THE BEST EVIDENCE as you claim, then we can put the whole thing to rest right now once and for all because there is zero substance.

The evidence was visual, as well and using logic and rationale.
How do you measure love, is it considered supernatural? How do you measure your level of fear, or the energy that you feel, should we consider fear to be supernatural.
What about the waves of bliss you feel at a concert, can you measure those waves or should we consider it supernatural and non-existent.
The fact is that we all know it exists, even without measureable evidence.
This is the argument of this thread, and way more philosophical than anything you have spouted off in the last 5 years.
How about posting something unique, rather than silly stories about your life and treating the forums like your personal blog? Or making lame ass jokes full of dark sarcasm that no one but you and maybe a couple others will think is funny.

That same energy that we all feel is what people have been calling qi or chi all along.
It's the bull shitters that make it into something else.

So chi energy = being defensive and expressing a wounded ego?
Whether my threads are full of bunk or not certainly does not strengthen your case for chi now does it?

No, but your argument = strawman.
Why don't you address the issues I brought up rather than creating a red herring?

Dear Mr. Strawman...
Love is considered as qi, when you get to a certain level. Qi comes in many forms, and it isn't measureable with a scientific instrument is it?
The error in your thinking is that if you consider supernatural as non-existent, many things would have never existed, such as UV light and love. UV light we found a way to measure, love (qi) we haven't found an objective way to measure.
Yet we know that UV light exists now, so would it have been correct to say at one time it didn't exist, being we couldn't measure it?

It's giving you tit for tat, I have no problem talking shit back to you if you wanna talk shit. Besides you dodged the actual points. In the quoted response I was addressing your claim that this is the lamest thread and your assertion that it should be locked, when you sir, make a heck of a contribution, so I was being humble.
Oh, and James Randi is a Hoaxster, because if they do test something and find that it is unusual, then they measured it and it forgos being supernatural, so even if someone does have a profound ability, he will never pay up. He's no better than the bull shitters he calls out.

Nah, it wouldn't be as instantaneous as it is, and you would have heard the fan.
Also my body would have been blocking my arm from any other direction and the fan would have been hitting my back or other arm.
It's not a hoax.

So what makes you think it is chi? Is it not possible that you triggered you sympathetic nervous system and it is just acting accordingly?

Well, the phenomena has already been described in many practices, and I feel the Δnanda piercing through my cells. But I think your right and according to modern definitions that's what these practices lead too.
Quote:
Savikalpa -This is an interface of trans meditation[clarification needed] and higher awareness state, asamprajΓ±ata. The state is so named because mind retains its consciousness, which is why in savikalpa samΔdhi one can experience guessing (vitarka), thought (vicΔra), bliss (Δnanda) and self-awareness (asmita).[9] In Sanskrit, "kalpa" means "imagination". Vikalpa (an etymological derivation of which could be 'ΰ€΅ΰ€Ώΰ€Άΰ₯ΰ€·ΰ€ ΰ€ΰ€²ΰ₯ΰ€ͺΰ€ ΰ€΅ΰ€Ώΰ€ΰ€²ΰ₯ΰ€ͺΰ€ΰ₯€') connotes imagination.

There are a lot of other phenomena that I have experienced as well, but this one in particular yields visible results.

Well this feat is not particularly amazing... It is not at all a stretch to claim that you can control aspects of your autonomous nervous system. It's common to be able to control our breathing and heart rate, yes?
The chi part is what is confusing me.
A. What is your definition of chi?
B. How is this evidence for it?
C. Can you think of any other possible alternatives that could lead to goosebumps?
I can think of plenty...

Chi is just energy that you can feel in your body, but there is little or no objective evidence for.
It can manifest as inner fire, inner smile, Love, heart bliss, and ananda, to name a few.
It's something you know when you experience or feel it, it not something to think, and you are asking me for something to think, to experience is something you must do.
With your own free will.

Goosebumps, as defined, are not willed. So you can throw that out the window.

And really it doesn't matter what you call it or how you define it, because those are just thoughts of it, they are not what it is, because what it is is beyond thoughts, ie: feeling. (not touch, but feel)
