Metalic_Noodles The problem is that kids think the same things and they don't happen. Like laser guns zapping and exploding a spaceship where that tree is...
Thought is not the cause of observation; rather, observation is the cause of thought. Thinking something into existence is possible. However, if one could shift their paradigm to control their observations instead of their thoughts, it could be quite possible. Though others might simply think that he or she was insane.
Causality is science is often horribly incorrect. By learning to control these causalities, you are in essence altering reality.
Amos Tversky, a famous cognitive mathematician, did experiments with the human understanding of probability that demonstrate our own inability to judge a situation.
We can take this one step further and show that our observations of probability actually have an effect on the probability itself.
Consider the following
Read down till "Exercise 1.2".
The probability of the die does not determine the numbers you roll on it, rather, the number of times you roll the die determines, and possibly changes, the probability that the die is loaded. By observing this probability, you are also changing the chance that you will continue to roll the same number. In this sense, you are using observation to manipulate the odds.

I think I understand, though I'm not gonna try to say anything cuz I end up saying it weird and fudge everything up. lol
