A careful way to compare competing explanations
Begin by listing explanations without ranking them by preference. Ask what each explanation predicts, which observations it accounts for, and what evidence would count against it. This reduces the temptation to treat mystery as confirmation.
A good comparison also allows multiple factors to operate together. Physiology, medication, expectation, memory reconstruction, culture, and spiritual meaning do not always form mutually exclusive categories.
Five checkpoints for this route
- 1.Were witnesses interviewed independently rather than as a group?
- 2.Is a personal belief clearly labeled instead of presented as medical consensus?

- 4.Is the narrator’s emotional meaning preserved without overstating evidence?
- 5.Would the wording still be accurate if the preferred explanation were wrong?
