Scientists make breakthrough in telepathy

Photoshop.
You can do wonders with it.

How will you ever see the truth in a photograph if your mind is already set not to see it?

You really aren't going to do very well here on this site [1].
A "photograph" proves nothing at all.

You first have to establish conclusively that the photograph is genuine.
You then have to establish that whatever is in the photo is actually as you claim it to be (which would involve ruling out all possible other explanations).

In other words, it's your mindset [belief] that has convinced you that the photo is/ contains the truth.
Not facts.
Not reality.
Belief.


1 Probably not true: we have a number of cranks who can't distinguish their beliefs from fact and/ or reason.

Not everyone can discern the things of the Spirit of God. Do others put photographs of you on trial as well? If it is something that you do not believe in in the first place, you are less likely to see it.

 

now, what if we could do such a thing with a concept such as "will"
it seems "will" will become obsolete.
can we now state that a sufficiently advanced culture lacks a will?

 

Just about anyone, with a modern standard of grade school education, can detect the nonsense and preaching in such a statement. Trolling for Jesus, or some other brand?

Funny you should mention trial. Try getting any judge to admit it into evidence. Also note, in deciding the legal meaning of the word frivolous, the Supreme Court cited a plaintiff advancing claims similar to yours, by way of illustration.

Only if you are clinically delusional. Is that the case, or is this some milder form, or just plain trolling?

Take all of this to the Paranormal threads below. Another troll is currently trying to insinuate telepathy into the science forum. (Or are you also a sock puppet of Reiku?)

 

Yeah, probably because neither "god" nor his/ her/ its/ "spirit" have been shown to exist.
Some of us prefer not to discern things which, so far as can be ascertained, don't actually exist.

What?

And if you believe in something deeply enough [sup]1[/sup] you'll convince yourself - despite the actual lack of evidence - that it's really there.

1 E.g. the sort of person deluded & arrogant enough to proclaim themselves the bearer of "truth".

 

Larry Niven's Pak Protector species is the science fictional manifestation of this.

They are so fast and intelligent that they arrive at the best solution almost instantly. Which would not in-and-of-itself, actually impede their free will, except that they also have a reflexive biological imperative to take the correct action (protection of their young). And that results in them having virtually no free will.

 

BofT, how does one recognize "truth" in a photo? It kind of requires wishful thinking does it not?

I mean, you'll post photographs, and then you'll describe what you see in them, but they're really just pixels. There's no "truth" in an image. To verify, we'd have to follow up and make our own investigations.

 

Excuse me, but you are trolling for atheism. Enough said, I will take my work to the religious forum.

 

As if this subject hasn't been dealt with before.

Telepathy is an interesting matter. I have wondered from time to time telepathy is related to shackleing a person in ones own will; seems like telepathy begins in such a manner (somewhat relative to the symptoms of obsessive compulsive disorder). Perhaps a being whom keeps pictures of a another person displayed in their home, and often keeps the person in a relative control and submission order for itself; fetishing it's object into mutual telepathy, or using of the body's presentment to enhance it's positional identity whilst it's victim ends up struggleing to maintain a more conscious existence (feeling like it's host wherever it may be is actually parasitical. [forgive me if this is incorrect yet this is sciforums, what of parents that begin a pseudo telepathy upon their kids, using them as a sexual fetish]

 

Yes, it was like a even more rudimentary "morse code" (nothing means nothing, "1" means yes/something) but where the "beep" is a "mental light" that is "only" seen in receiver's brain -- even though the triggering signal can be seen through a different output prior to that if the machine simply has any other sort of output; and it even travels the internet prior to that.


It's not that more spectacular than having a microwave oven that's activated through from a "mind command" that is read from an MRI or something like that, and travels from point to point with a hacked walkie-talkie. If that's "telepathy", telephones are also.

The "inner experience" of light through magnetic stimulation of the brain is something known from as back as 1929. That's the main technological element behind the "telepathic" phrasing, besides MRI for the reading (which, alone, doesn't warrant hypey headlines anymore).

 

Believe in words like I can, and free will and anything is possible. Telepathy is just just the edge of the iceberg.

 

Nope.

Nope.

 

Oh great Know, is it you?
