rusty_shackleford Posted June 27, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Have any of you ever wondered what makes some people more prone to having these abilities than others? I'm trying to look into this with a few friends, is there anything you could tell me about yourself that separates you from the rest of the herd? We have a chat room but I don't want my thread to be deleted for spam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davros of Skaro Posted June 27, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I sought an answer for this for many years. The answer is hereditary schizo-typal, or full on schizophrenia, and thought addictions. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. A good majority are scam artists. Why don't you put them to the test, or search YouTube "psychic debunked". If I was psychic, I would put an end to many horrible things like child trafficking for example. No psychic crime force anywhere. Do you see any psychic crime force taking a bite out of crime? 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, We're not really looking at people who charge 5.99 a minute to tell you where uncle JimBob's lost treasure is hidden, We're more interested in people who can actually be put to the test. Telepathy, Precognition, Intuition, All things that are hard to "sell" but not very hard to prove. Of course these people are rare but what better place to find them than this forum?

XenoFish Posted June 28, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 28, 2018 If you're hearing voices you are crazy. If you're seeing things that aren't there, your crazy. If you get those spooky feelings, you're probably paranoid. If you're not crazy then your delusional. Are you've convinced yourself so fully of a lie that you believe you've got some irrational 'superpower'. FYI intuition isn't a psychic ability, it's a psychological function, a nudge from the subconscious. Part of our instinct. Plus our brains love patterns and we see patterns in damn near anything and everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be a total nutjob but i don't hear voices or see things that aren't there or have any 'superpowers' and the intuition i mentioned means something a little different than that. If I haven't made it clear already, I DO NOT have any unusual abilities, But you look like you might be more fascinated with it than I am. Do you have any experiences/stories you'd like to share?

I'll also add another group of people that I believe are more psychic; those that have had near death experience and even mind expanding experiences with psychoactive substances. It seems these experiences stretch channels of perception into the other dimensional realms of reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I firmly believe in the paranormal, I feel that there is a significant portion of "events" that are the misinterpreted result of significant mental illness, such as you described. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is pretty much accepted in the world of physics that there are other dimensions beyond those that we commonly know. Whether those other dimensions are capable of harboring life is unknown, and of course fully up to speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I also think the psychic senses can perceive and tell us about things that physics can not yet. I believe even our normal consciousness involves interpenetrating extra-dimensional bodies (astral/mental). Our physical senses and instruments only directly perceive our familiar three dimensions.

stereologist Posted July 3, 2018 #17 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Loved the video about psychic failures. The Sylvia Browne scams are well known. It had all of usual frauds in it plus many I was not aware of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightly Posted July 3, 2018 #18 Share Posted July 3, 2018 My mother was extremely ....intuitive... I guess I'll call it. She would state something and then add .."l just know it". and somehow she did. I inherited a portion of her intuitive tendencies. I've heard it stated as scientific fact that time ,and space, can be somewhat malleable .... Why couldn't conciousness be somewhat fluid as well? Not everything has to be ABC building block rigid...that seems to me to be s very limited way of viewing reality. Why can't we just accept that there will always be some mystery in the universe and existence? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I thought Quantum Mechanics and specifically entaglement, opened the door to possibilities that everything in the universe is connected, including telepaphy, intuition etc. So, may be in the distant future....

What is your opinion on Bigfoot being psychic? There's over 30 years of millions of hunter's trail cams with increasing technology that the creature has to sense in order to avoid.

I do believe Bigfoot most likely exists and involves things we call paranormal. As to trail cams, we are talking about the teeniest percentage of nature, and I heard of some captures that were (disputed of course) suspected of being Bigfoot. I do not know if Bigfoot senses the cameras or not or even how much Bigfoot is even available to our normal senses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoofGardener Posted July 4, 2018 #22 Share Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) As nobody has ever demonstrated measurable, reproducable 'psychic' abilities, then the question of a genetic link is surely somewhat moot ?
