[u]March 8:[/u]Bill Sweet, SpindriftResearch.org (exploring consciousness and prayer with scientific method)

Bill Sweet is the author of the book A Journey Into Prayer: Pioneers of Prayer in the Laboratory Bill will join us to discuss his involvement with Spindrift Research, an organization started by Bruce and John Klingbeil in 1969 to explore the connections between prayer, consciousness, and healing.

Bill Sweet was always interested in paranormal phenomena including the spiritual phenomena of prayer. Through meeting the founders of Spindrift Inc., Bill began to grasp new ways of applying consciousness research to religion and science. Bill learned that the Klingbeils were healers who were doing scientific tests of consciousness and prayer.

Bill Sweet was president of Spindrift for four years. The Spindrift research has been helpful in showing that aspects of prayer and consciousness are real phenomena and not the human imagination. Spindrift studied the positive effects, biased effects, and the dark effects coming from people’s prayers. Anhistorical tidbit is that before 9/11, Spindrift tried to get people to pay attention to the dark prayers that militant Muslims prayed toward Jews and Americans.

Bill was brought up in Wilmette, Illinois. He graduated from New Trier High School, which was the top public high school in the country at the time. He went to Illinois State University and received a communications degree. Bill has the highest-level ham radio operator’s license. He is also an audiophile and musician. For the Chicago area, Bill’s booking agency handled bands ranging from Dixie Land, Rock and Roll, Disco, Big Band, and small group jazz.
