Option A is incorrect as it is a biased and unfair statement about ESP researchers. Option B is also incorrect as there have not been a large number of reliable demonstrations of ESP. Option D is partially correct, but it is important to note that the unreliable results of ESP experiments cannot be attributed to chance alone as the methodology and experimental design may have flaws.
