	to examine how to move heavy objects

Distinguishing between Sense and Nonsense

Some people claim that they can move heavy objects by using only the power of their minds, send "thought messages" or see what will happen in the future. How can we prove that these claims are nonsense? The only way, of course, is to conduct scientific experiments that are carefully controlled. These experiments would show that these claims are not based on strong scientific evidence.

What would be the purpose of conducting scientific experiments in this case? Choose 2 correct answers.
