Yeah, you're making sense. I personally think that's somewhat dubious, though. It brings up the question of where God ends and we begin. It also brings up a lot of other theological messes that have been touched upon over the centuries, like that of predestination. And it makes me wonder where the boundaries between your soul and mine are. All around, it just makes things very murky, IMHO.

Well certainly I think things like telepathy are possible. If you look at it through complete science, brainwaves do have a frequency and are always emmited. So if you were able to find those waves, theoretically you could read someones mind. I've always thought that you can accomplish almost anything as long as you have the willpower to do it, and scince it seems were only using ten percent of our brains, we must not have very much willpower, but still we seem to have the select few humans who accomplish amazing things.

Thanks Berz! And if you'd like to discuss about the soul, there's a thread for that at "The Catacombs" Sub-forum. 3nodding
I don't believe that our souls are the same though, maybe minds can be sort of intertwined but not souls.

Yer right Drizzt! That's why Stan Lee invented "The X-men". He must have thought similarly as you did. 3nodding

Hey cool I think like a famous comic book creator xd . Just had to start my post with something that doesn't matter what so ever hehe.

Anyway...Human mind...It seems a waste that we have so much brain and are unable to use it all. I'm sure that if we could use our entire brain we would probably have discovered millions upon millions of things that could have changed the world. I mean if we've gone this far using around 10%, how much could we achieve with 100?

What happens to anyone or anything? I have always wondered what happens when we die.

I like to think that I get to come back as either someone else or something (animal wise.)

The human mind is a little too complicated to understand, half the time I don't understand what is going on in my own mind!! Let alone anything else. But even though the mind is only grey matter and what have you, it makes us...us in the long run.

It's makes us think, feel, even talk. Ever had your own voice in your head? It's weird but funny at the same time.

The voice in your head thing brings up a good point, you may not notice it but when you think usually your thoughts coem in the form of words and those words have a voice, but how can you hear something that is actually happening. Similarly how can you remember a sight or even a smell without using any part of your body other than your brain?

I don't know, and there probably is no definite answer either. The brain and mind are powerful and mysterious things. If only we could comprehend the true extent of our minds, but would we really want to? Couldn't disastrous things come about if we could increase the use of our brains from 10% to 100%, or anywhere in between? I mean, if humans have been able to bring about so much death and destruction time and time again with new inventions, couldn't things be invented that are even deadlier and cease our existence in this world?
