Title: Is Telepathy Possible? Your Thoughts.
Post by: Excalibur on April 07, 2008, 12:42:05 am
Obviously it is in your own head, but between two beings?

http://www.newagedirectory.com/esp/esp.htm ---> They reckon it is, but that sounds a bit fishy to me, trying to guess what cards are what, etc. out of a shuffled pack. :wtf:

It would be fun if it was possible, but it would also cause problems.

What would you do if you were telepathic. (Or would you be telepathetic?)

Telepathy is entirely possible. Just make sure to use the crisping sleeve, and you might want to adjust the suggested cooking time according to the specifications of your microwave, and of course--

Oh, wait, telepathy? I'm sorry I was thinking of heating Hot Pockets. In my defense, their deliciousness is quite extraordinary, and they come in more exciting varieties than ever.

Have you ever eaten a Hot Pocket and thought to yourself, "I'm glad I ate that"?

Oh, **** it. I lost my stockpile of those after my last format.

It depends on what is meant with telepathy in this case.

There are some people who are more sensitive on that sort of things than the rest. And by "sensitive" I don't mean that they would be easier to fool to believe that someone could do all that kind of stuff. More likely, they have a capability to see something what others cannot, while as the others might excel in singing, drawing, story telling, leading, calculating, building etc. etc.

Even more frighteningly, it doesn't even strike me that odd that someone could know what is happening to someone else.

Bah, I really should avoid this topic. Bash it as much as you want for all I care.

No. No telephaty, at least not in a movie sense.

A special part of brain developed to transmit and decipher signal sent from antoher brain (signals we humans can't hear...like dolphin sonar) - yes, that sounds plausible.
While it might have a bigger bandwidth than human talk and look like telephaty, it still isn't. And you wouldn't be able to "read" anyones minds of thoughts.

But if you could "read" me from all the way in (insert other side of the world here), then just imagine what else you would pick up... :nervous:

I'd love to see if anyone has ever guessed all the cards in a genuine deck of cards 3 times in a row...

Oh, and I didn't say post your thoughts, so maybe people are trying and failing.  ;7

Wouldn't you be violating conservation of energy/momentum something awful if you had telekinetic powers?

A kind of similar thought bothers me every time I see Magneto in action (in a movie, that is) :D

Post by: Ghostavo on April 08, 2008, 01:54:59 pm
You don't violate the conservation of energy so long as you've wasted enough energy doing it.

Of course that's ignoring what are we wasting that energy on...
Title: Re: Is Telepathy Possible? Your Thoughts.
Post by: General Battuta on April 08, 2008, 05:25:06 pm
Right, but the energy's got to come from somewhere.

Well the Phoenix force operated by annihilating possible futures and channeling the untapped energy into the form of it's Godlike powers of wrath and destruction.

And I believe Magneto draws energy from the Earth's magnetic field.

The sun!

Tossing stuff around with telekinesis would, however, probably take a great deal more energy than -- y'know what, never mind. Telekinesis is cool. I'm fine with It Just Does as an explanation.

||     That is making me laugh - I never thought I would have a topic with the largest number of quoted quoted quoted...quoted quotes. Did anyone else know that? ;)

Anyway, I think some form of "waves" are able to be detected from outside the brain, but as of yet I haven't heard of telekenitic people, except for those wierd psychics that claim they know what happened in a crime that occured on the other side of the Earth. More likely they studied the area where it happened, looked at photos of people involved and made up a nice story so they could have their own T.V show and make lots of money...if only we could do that - make money from a load of crap... ;7
