What is within the Void?
If you hold a needle or pendant on a string over a pregnant woman’s belly or hand you can determine the sex of her baby. You must hold the string steady and the needle will begin to swing. If the needle swings back and forth the woman is having a boy, if it swings in a circle she is having a girl.
This method has correctly predicted the sex of all the babies born in my family for the last 50 years. Here are the same circumstances, only on a larger scale.
This is a curious endeavor. What will happen when men and women lie beneath the needle? Will it remain still? Swing in accordance to the sex of the viewer? Or will it react to something unseen in the space between the body and the needle, something within the experimenter?
