Thanks.
I hate to rain on everyone's parade, but I think everyone is getting a bit ahead of themselves, considering the fact that none of these abilities have been proven to exist.
But, just for a moment, let's pretend they did. What good is being psychic when we can already speak with our mouths? What good is being psychic when anyone can contact anyone over large distances with a phone or computer? What good is telepathy when everyone can just use their hands or feet to achieve the same results and not loose "spirit energy" in the process? What good is being able to tame fire, when mankind has tamed fire since the days of the cavemen?
Basically, the abilities people claim to have are rather unimpressive. You can get the exact same results more efficiently by using conventional means. Even if someone could produce flames with their hands, I still have a lighter. Even if someone could make a hammer float across the room, I still have arms and legs.
So, if the powers were real, you guys would just be doing normal everyday things in not so normal ways. And that's about it. Pretty mundane, if you ask me, and certainly not anything that would lead to 'the future of man'.

Yes, they did. I'd recommend checking out www.clavius.org for more information. But now we're a bit off topic.
