Abstract
The evolution of understanding traditional and non-tradition detection methods in the work of investigating bodies is a natural process dependent on the historical development of the society at given moments of time--mostly corresponding to epochs. A constant growth of the society's consciousness gradually eliminates the stereotypical views on the opposition of conventional and unconventional methods of acquiring information in a way that science sees as objective and in those based on using paranormal abilities of humans' energetic spheres and bioinformation. A theory observed nowadays, namely one of combining science and religion, may lead to a reduction of the present dichotomy that differentiates between conventional and unconventional methods of acquiring information. Global developments in science and the acquisition of more and more experience in the paranormal sphere should bring the long awaited balance in estimating the utility in the process of acquiring information. Therefore, negating the new, unknown, or unscientific methods should rather be turned into taking into consideration the real results that can be acquired by using different methods of getting to the objective truth. The main goal of science is seeking the truth and offering newer and newer methods and conceptions that show the variety of technological achievements and the individuality of the human brain that can have more abilities than pure science alone, because the last one is restricted to the present times' possibilities.
