If telepathy was real, the natural selection would have selected much more (because being able to read the mind of a predator is a very very strong evolution advantage), and the effect would be really obvious today.
I really thing that the "evolution argument" is against telepathy being real, and I don't understand Sheldrake's position (that it would be an evolutionary advantage, even with so subtle effects - such has parapsychologists claim to be real).
