Can you give concrete evidential examples that refute his claims?

Sure can, right after you give me concrete evidential examples that refute the Time Cube guy. The reason people don't bother to refute bullshit-on-their-face claims is because it takes 20x more effort to refute a bullshit claim than to make one in the first place, and it's absolutely pointless to argue with a hack who never intended to base his argument on evidence anyway. The best thing to do with these guys is completely ignore them, the same way they ignored the vast body of human knowledge and understanding in the first place.

I'm not saying you're wrong in your view of Dr. Palmer. I can see this is a subject that you have strong feelings about but, unfortunately, you've given me nothing to work with. I'm earnestly trying to understand another side of his claims, which is why I asked for more concrete evidence.

I had not heard of "the Time Cube guy" before but a quick search brings up a lot of conspiracy theories. However, I don't see what that has to do with Dr. Palmer's Brain Energy theory.

For what it's worth, I hate conspiracy theories. It's intellectual laziness. So, when you said Dr. Palmer's Brain Energy theory is pseudoscience I immediately wanted to know more because I want to be able to disregard it if the facts warrant that.
