Sounds like that guy has been hitting the acid a bit too hard.
Thoughts don't just pop in to your head - they've been circulating around in your subconscious, and when they're ready, they're elevated to your conscious. It might seem like they just popped in, but they've been there for a while.

I have two words for you, ElectricUncleSam:
Rupert Sheldrake.
Or:
Carl Gustav Jung.
Which makes five words... but researching them would really be worth your while, believe me.

We have to assume the following, in order:
1. God exists
2. He can hear our prayers
3. Other people can "receive" as well as "transmit"
Only then could we possibly transmit thoughts to each other. But, considering people have been trying for hundreds of years and not one has succeeded, it's not looking good.

This is an interesting thread and I have enjoyed reading the responses.
I only wonder about this, if what you propose is true, then what about mass murderers? Child molesters? People who come up with war plans?
Are they getting thoughts for things like this from outerspace, too?
ALLisONE: I shudder to think I am the same object as the examples I listed above. Ewwwwwwwwwww!!!!!

I love what you said nofnak! I'm not religious (don't go to church) but I do believe in a god of some kind. I have prayed many many times and my prayers have always been answered. Praying works! I wonder if we all prayed for peace if it would make a difference in the world?
