Nothing. Sheldrake can claim he has evidence for "morphic resonance". Case closed. No need to investigate further. Let's move on to elephants and earthquakes.

It's equivalent to ID. It's a science stopper.

How do bats fly at night? Morphic resonance! You don't need to investigate natural explanations like ultrasound.
