My curiosity about testing is whether is is valid to test people about the consciousness of others, especially ancient or fictional characters. If someone were to test a tribesman that never heard of Jesus, would he test at 1000? If the tester hadn’t heard either, how would it test? Probably weak because they wouldn’t even know who we were talking about. An interesting aspect of double-blind testing of the universe.

To do so, it just starts with a very simple attitude, “Maybe it works. Maybe it doesn’t. I won’t know the truth unless I put in a honest effort.” Like learning to ride a bike, one can simply be open to the learning process itself even though they might not already be the next Lance Armstrong. Or, like many, that person could merely dismiss bike riding as an impracticality or impossibility and sit on the sidelines in skepticism and doubt.
