Seeing the unseen
Do you think that people who regularly see things that other people can't see and hear voices that other people can't hear are generally 100% sane?
Certainly they might be. The hard part is to convince the deaf that there really is sound.
It is not beyond the realm of possibility that there are some who possess either senses we do not possess or have senses that are able to reacyt over a broader range than most of us.

Re: Seeing the unseen
So, you think there are people who have "demon sense", or something?
Or something.
I think that almost all of the apparitions are entirely imagined with no basis in reality. But I wonder about other things such as the voice of prayer. Is it simply internal, a figment of imagination, or is it actually an extended sense or new sense?
If you've followed many of my postings here, one question I've returned to fairly regularly is whether or not we'd be able to recognize a new feature, an evolved man? If it were some gross change such as a third arm that is designed to scratch that spot between your shoulders, it would be obvious. But suppose it were something more subtle, a different way of thinking or a different sense? Could we recognize, in fact would the individual even recognize, that there was a difference?

EVERYBODY
Let's try to make this civil AND constructive.
Quit the inqusition. Quit the "I choose to look deeper" responses.
Those who would mentor, mentor. Use kindness and consideration.
Those who would learn, listen. Ask questions and take this as an opportunity to use the knowledge being offered to you.

Okay Chris
We're getting close to witching hour for this thread.
Can I suggest that you slow down and think some about the implications of what you're saying. You're getting set to box yourself into a corner.
