Suppose there were a inverse relationship between belief in telepathy and telepathic ability; somebody like Cosmin is absolutely certain telepathy is real but because of that he doesn't have an iota of telepathic power, so he marches into a scientist's lab perfectly confident he can demonstrate it and fails completely. Meanwhile a skeptic who thinks telepathy is 100% hogwash is actually a powerful telepath, but the more transcendental experiences he has the less certain he is that its hogwash and the less powerful a telepath he becomes. I think telepathy is 100% hogwash and have never had a transcendental experience, so if the above theory is true I must be an enormously powerful telepath; I will now use my vast psychic ability to predict that Cosmin will NEVER demonstrate his powers.
