I am from Norway and the landscapes in skyrim are very similar indeed:)
It was like taking a walk in the woods outside my house:)

Well of course it is questionable,everything is His point,the way I understand it anyway,is only that if these phenomenon occur,why
can`t we just research them properly and try and figure out what it is.Of course there are tons of pseudo psychics and what not out there.He merely points out that there are areas worth looking into properly,so we can get the topic out of the way and move on.
The problem is that materialist scientists won`t even look in his direction,of obvious reasons of course.Their whole body of knowledge and
work depends on these phenomena being false.If it is proven that they actually do occur in some way or another,the materialist house of cards will come crashing down to the ground.So they say its all a grand delusion.
The wisest thing to do here should be to get everyone in on this,do proper research and REALLY find out why these phenomena occur,so we can move on to something else,either with new knowledge in hand or a nail in the "psychic" coffin once and for all.
Something that will never happen by the way:)  There is sadly no way that the scientific priesthood of materialism will ever agree to spend time on researching something that would destroy their system of belief. They have too much to lose in pursuing this kind of fringe science.
Personally I don`t believe in anything that is not proven,but he does have a good case for further investigation into these phenomenon.

Had a hard time deciding between a few sci fi books,but ended up with "the golden age" by John C Wright.
I also read"the brotherhood of the screaming abyss" by Dennis Mckenna,a biography on his brother Terence Mckenna.
Also just finished Sean Patricks book on Nicola Tesla.

The first book was great,but the other two didn`t quite hold up imo.
Have you read anything by Daniel Abraham? He is one of the two guys who wrote "the expanse".
I read the "long price quartet" awhile ago,and thought it was ok but rather slow and honestly quite boring.

well,if you think speculative use of quantum theory+post apocalyptic world is in your taste you should go for it

Well if you are a heavyweight in the genre,which I am not,you might find this mediocre.
But I must say,the worldbuilding and plot is very fresh and differs a lot from other works in the genre(imo),and the protagonist is totally unpredictable and completely insane:)

I read the first three of the Dune books,then I took a break from them and I have not read the rest yet,but I will.
I liked the first three GOT books,but the last two were kind of disappointing imo.
Enders game is on my "to read" list,and I have a William Gibson book containing most of his novels.
China is on my radar too,but haven`t had the time yet.
Thanks for the tips anyway,and since we seem to enjoy much of the same stuff,I can highly recommend "the broken empire" by
Mark Lawrence,and "the golden age" by John C wright(which I haven`t read yet,but a friend who enjoys the same as me,claims it is
mindblowing )

Yeah,something like that I think.He is kind of a hippie scientist I guess,and in his book "the science delusion" he questions some of the reductionist dogma that many people see as absolute truth.I am not a scientist in any sense,so I am on the sideline here:)
One example is that he says that the whole concept of "natural laws" is an anthropocentric notion inherited from the creators of modern science,men like Descartes and Newton who believed in a clockmaker-type god.Sheldrake argues that when we look at nature we don`t find "laws",but what we find is habits.These habits are "remembered" somehow through what he calls morphogenetic fields.
He also has some interesting views on telepathy among animals,and his experiments show results above chance.One example is when monkeys learn something new which is practical and useful,somehow other monkeys far far away also start doing the same. He did an experiments with dogs called "why do dogs know when their owner come home?"
He poses some funny questions to materialists too: Is the mechanistic worldview a testable scientific theory,or a metaphor?
                                                                                   If it is a metaphor,why is the machine metaphor better in every respect than
                                                                                   the organism metaphor? If it is a scientific theory,how could it be tested or
                                                                                   refuted?
                                                                                   Do you think that you yourself are nothing but a complex machine?
                                                                                   Have you been programmed to believe in materialism?
"The mechanistic theory is based on the metaphor of the machine.But it is only a metaphor.Living organisms provide better metaphors
  for organised systems at all levels of complexity,including molecules,plants and societies of animals,all of which are organised in a 
  series of inclusive levels,at which the whole at each level is more than the sum of its parts,which are themselves wholes at a lower
  level.Even the most ardent defenders of the mechanistic theory smuggle purposive organising principles into living organisms in the
  form of selfish genes or genetic programs.In the light of the Big Bang theory,the entire universe is more like a growing,developing
  organism than a machine slowly running out of steam"
