Okay let's talk abt Psychics.

[OranguTrump]

Not possible to foretell events - psychics don't win lotteries anymore than "normals", and faith healers die of illness just as often as non-believers. Not trying to be rude, but your "gift" is not observable by science, not verifiable by others & probably a combo of imagination/wishful thinking.

I predict nothing happens in OshKosk remotely like your "prediction" - sorry.

 

[Genghis Kush]

you're right , we don't have access to that level of detail (lottery). And a lot of it will inevitable be peoples wishful thinking.

Faith is the most powerful of healing tools. If you don't believe that your doctor can heal you than your chances of benefiting from their treatment is much less.

Second Sight is real.

Time is not linear. Every moment exists at the same exact moment.

Again, time is not linear. All that exists is this moment, and that's all that will ever exist, is this moment. Your not moving back in time or forward. If you were. What would you be moving forward too?

You say.. Then why/how do we age? Good question. Aging is not due to time, ageing is a process of your chromosomes coming undone on the end of them, due to certain interactions/forces. If you could stop that process that you would not age so therefore, you would "stop time".

You might say, well how do these chemicals/forces that cause aging get into your body with out moving through time. Things move. If you drop the thought of "Time", things become very different.

The idea of a distinct past, present and future is an illusion because it is relative to the individual or object. Travelling closer to the speed of light slows time for that individual in relation to another person who isn't travelling as fast and therefore it is not one distinct linear progression that we all follow.


If time was linear then it wouldn't be possible for an individual or object to experience time differently from one another and we would all experience exactly the same progression. Some theories suggest it's our movement through space that produces our experience of time progressing but seeing as speed is a variable then so to is what we would refer to as the passage of time.

so what are memories?

 

[Genghis Kush]

the past, present and future exist in the moment.



All brain activity, and presumably therefore mind activities such as memory, arises from little charges of electricity (electrical potentials) being communicated between special cells called neurons. (You can actually ‘read’ this electricity on the skin of your scalp with the right machine) From here it gets a lot more complicated , but in principle we can say that memories are the result of a large network of these cells working in unison. The memory is created and ‘stored’ by the pathways between certain cells/groups of cells being strengthened (something called long-term potentiation). Think of it like paths in a field of tall grass – the first time someone walks through the field, their feet will push some of the stalks flat making a path, this will then mean that the next time you walk along you will probably chose to follow the same route across the field as the first time because it is easier, and your passage will, again, make the path more concrete. This is why repeating facts increases their strength in memory, because each time you remember, that path through the grass becomes a little more clear until it is a well-beaten track!

 

[Cannavore]

time exists as a measurement, but is only relative to your perspective.
What we are calling Time is really the 'rate of change'. And the 'rate of change' is relative to the speed you are traveling.
Time is personal and not universal.

My original point was that we are all psychic because everything(the past, present and future) exists all at once.
Everything that will ever happen already exists.

It is possible to access realms where all this information is attainable, through meditation and psychoactive plants.
In normal waking consciousness we sometime get glimpses beyond the veil and this information pours though.

sounds incredibly paradoxical

 

[al70]

I remember someone died, Are they dead ?

 

[Genghis Kush]

Existence is paradoxical

 

[Genghis Kush]

no death, infinite existence of the soul as long as ego remains

 

[shithawk420]

Wow.whent from physcics to meta and quantum physics pretty quick in here.even neurophysiology.damnlol

 

[stoned-trout]

I much prefer my magic 8 ball...........yeeeeeehhhhaaaaawwww

Two friends of mine and myself picked some p. cubensis about 10 years ago, in the middle of the trip we decided to go outside to this park with huge trees and benches, we sat down on a bench to watch the cars and people passing by...my two friends started predicting what the people walking through the park would do with 99% accuracy, it was so crazy that they started predicting how and what the birds in the trees would do, they predicted the coming of a homeless dude asking for money and they showed off their predicting abilities to him, the guy got freaked out and became violent and attacked one of my friends, I had to put the homeless dude on a headlock, we then forcefully took the money we had given him back lol...

 

[TangieFanatic]

This sounds like some hilarious shit that would happen.

They’re adding a second to the atomic clock in June so adjust accordingly.

Sheesh, what a hassle. I hate this shit. Couldn't they have done this on the same day we adjust the clocks for Daylight Savings Time?

 

[trichrider]

if psychic abilities didn't exist the gubbermint wouldn't have remote viewers...just sayin'.

what, you never heard of Edgar Cayce?

precognition is real.

deja vu.

 

[stoned-trout]

they have meds to help ya know....people that like to think they can see the future usually require medication....just sayin......yeehaw..I don't know the medical term... crazy???

 

[eatUR<3out]

OK... so, I'm getting some images in my mind here. Flashes of green... lots of green... and its sticky. I sense a putrid, yet inviting, stench...

Green, sticky, stinky... hmmm... what a mysterious mystery.

 

[eatUR<3out]

Also, who else here would bang Theresa Caputo? She got lunch lady arms, but I'd like to raw dog her spirit... maybe even stir the spirit pot with her and her daughter, give them both some spirit... all over.

Edgar Cayce was a fraud, and the majority of his predictions were flat-out wrong. Even many of the ones that were "correct" are debatable.
