I get where you are coming from, however as I had indicated, if it is unobservable then all we have are theories and ideas, such that any one or all of them may be equally probable until it is revealed. Maybe we're both right. Maybe neither of us are.
That said, again, I think how one applies these beliefs is at least as important (if not more so) than the beliefs themselves. Your environment will react to you based on how you react to it, and that is definitely observable.

Why would the weather be excluded? A butterfly in the Amazon rainforest flaps its wings, and as this energy radiates outwards, half way around the globe a typhoon develops. I don't think it's so much that the butterfly knew what it was doing or willed it into being, rather it is that we are all interconnected in this physical medium.
Just how far does one want to take these causal links when taking these kinds of events into consideration? An immeasurable number of air molecules had to be manipulated, and not just by the butterfly, to create the typhoon, so it certainly had some help along the way.
At any rate, while this has been an interesting discussion, the topic is starting to drift a bit from my OP. A new thread to discuss your take on things I think would be a fine idea.
