When it comes to the most attention-grabbing event there's only one cherry so it's hardly cherry-picking.I mean, yeah, this is pretty much the point. But people setting out to prove their hypothesis that quantum something-or-other correlates with events that humans consider important are obviously not going to look at events that don't show any correlation.
In fact, coming up with a hypothesis and setting out to 'prove' it is not even how you do science. You're supposed to set up a test that can falsify the hypothesis. So this isn't even science at all, or is at best what Feynman called 'cargo-cult science.' If you'd studied it yourself you would understand this, but - like these 'researchers' - you instead cherry-pick whatever you think backs up your prejudices.

They've done similar analyses of other events.
They've written on other events and analysed them, and the other paper presents an experiment showing the same sort of effect.Doesn't change the fact that they have one (1) data point. That's not evidence, it's an anecdote.
Which they omitted from that paper for good reasons, I'm sure.
Yeah, cool Star Wars stuff that attractive, charismatic, socially adept people care about.This thread's supposed to be about Star Wars, not nerd shit.

I'll admit you're right if you can Force-levitate my phone up in the air and smack me in the face with it.I'm literally trying to show you that Jedi psychokinesis is real.
