    this is one of the best documentaries i've ever seen, even if one or two of the people in it annoy me.

    i'd seen part of it before, and particularly love the parts about entanglement and about water molecules

    here's a 7-8 minute sample of some of it:

    last night i watched the full 2 and a half hour documentary....its incredible.

    you dont get it.

    The title explains the movie quite well. As of now were not capable of understanding or knowing ANYTHING, besides what we see, smell touch...

    Man, I hate to disagree with you... but that documentary sucks some major balls.

    That pseudo-intellectual drivel is at most an elementary introduction to a vast topic.

    The documentary itself is very poorly done, and extremely simplified... as if it attempts to get the average American somewhat interested in all of that stuff.

    I watched it once, and scolded the friend who recommended it to me for an hour. Poor guy.

    It's called Ramtha School of Enlightement.

    All the physicits they interviewed came out and said there words were horribly taken out of context, and you can't change the physical world by meditation.

    Legendary bullshit.

    of course physicists would say that. but what the bleep do they know?

    I started watching it, but killed it after about ten minutes. a bit too new wavey and struck me as bullshit.

    No. I do know prayer does not change the structure of water molecules.

    Thought is fairly complex, but it doesn't interact with the physical world. And I challenge anyone who disagrees to wedgie me with their mind.

    The movie sucked. And the back story with the deaf girl sucked.

    About the interactions of water moleecules.

    The worlds interesting enough if byou actually learn about it and not enjoy this kinda crap. I'm kinda convinced people who like this movie are idiots.

    No offense guys.

    Well I wouldnt be so sure about that lode. Thought is much more powerful than we can currently be aware of.
    Ive not seen the movie, and am not sure I ever will. But when you take into consideration that everything is composed of vibration, and that thought is vibration, why would it not be possible for some people, and maybe all of us at some point, to use thought with will in order to manipulate the physical world around us?
    Sure this hasent been proven yet, but does that mean it hasent been done? Collective prayer works only in a way in which is outside of our limited understanding. The energy you put out into this world, I feel, does change something, thought the effects are not going to be made immediatley revealed to you for reasons that I feel would be an instant removal of most human beings cherished free will.
    I realize that I am not very learned in physics and the sciences, nor math, but God is approachable by both as well as by meditation, that much Im sure of. God just manifests Herself to us in personal ways, and we all have our own ways of eventually coming to terms with it, wether we are alive or dead doesnt much matter.
    I truly believe that there have been people before who have manipulated reality with thought, though I dont think the thought was theres as it would have been in direct alignment with God's will. Not that I am personifying God, I hope you dig what I mean by that. What is called the Christ or Krsna Consciousness, is very sadly misunderstood and even laughed at by many people, but I've had tiny glimpses into that wonderous state, and I understood in that moment that anything is possible, but if such things which would be labeld as miracles were made available to anyone, well, what would be the point?
    It's a hide and seek game that never ends until all is transcended.
    What you are saying is what we understand now to be truth, but that doesnt mean it isnt subject to change.

    Yes John. Our understanding of the world changes over time. That doesn't make unicorns any less fictional then they were yesterday.

    And I have no use for religion. I speak to god directly.

    In my spiritual universe, there is a profound love and beauty in the order and chaos of the universe that I can call god if I want to. But it's far beyond my comprehension, and it's not concerned with my life.

    I don't believe god is concerned with whether or not I get to fuck the hot brunette at work no matter how much I pray for it. So I just have to roll up my sleeves and make my own destiny.

    But I'm firmly convinced that no matter how pure my mind is, and no mater how disciplined I am, I will never be able to perform magic.

    But it doesn't matter because the worlds beautiful and misunderstood enough as is. And enough to make a lot better documentaries. ;)

    Just my humble opinion.
