But this has HUGE logical and moral consequences.
I wonder if you believers realize all the implications. You have to look at the big picture. Not just getting your coffee without having to ask for it. |
Freewill is not gone. Yes, I realize all the implications and I do look at the big picture. You don't believe LoA works, you simply think we're deluding ourselves and mistaking motivated action, an activated reticular activating system and co-incidence for LoA and thinking it's something magical. I'm not some superstitious villager from the jungle that mistakes science for magic. In school I graduated with honors, and my strong subjects were math, physics and computer science. I assure you I am a very logical person. I have studied self development for over 10 years and know the power of positive thinking coupled with taking massive action and I assure you this is not it. LoA and IM are much more then that. Consider that even Steve Pavlina, who you can tell is highly intelligent just from his posts, believes in it's magic. His website recommends "The Secret" to everyone. There are also numerous other people on this forum who are highly educated who have began to believe LoA is something you would call magical. Have you asked yourself how is that possible? Have we lost our minds? How would you explain someone like Steve with all his years of self development studies believing something like this? How would you explain me believing something like this?
