Re: what the ???
There is something called Deja-vu. Its just a silly little thing that other people talk about to some, but to others its a very real phenemenon. It happens pretty close like what you described, but its more of a sense of familiarity then a knowledge. I'm sure that some people have had this experiance before, and recognize it for what it is.
This is the part where you think im a crackpot...
And a little more...
PSYCHE! The real meat? Deja-vu is actually a neurological phenomenon. i used to have a great site that explained it but i lost it. take this one for now.
Science Journal: The neurology behind deja vu
Enjoy. Notice how precognition is listed as one of the other names of the feeling....

Re: what the ???

Science can't prove everything, and it never will... there are just parts of the mind that cannot be explained, energy that flows within all of us.... Dejavu I will say I've never had one... honestly I wish I had so I could see what they are like.
Hm. How to put this. No!? Actually, we CAN and WILL if not HAVE explain/explained the "energy" that flows within us and dictates our thoughts, counsciousness, and memory. The fact that you say that this is unexplained and (meaning no disrespect) you show no proof, evidence, or even an indication that you are saying something specific about the "energies within us" shows that you really dont have very much in the sense of an argument or even common knowledge on the subject. Honestly, if in completly misreading the post and have a wealth of information on the topic of the mystical energies of the human brain, please post them .My father is a neurologist, and id be happy to give him a call and debunk your theories.
As to the shortcomings of science, im inclined to disagree. Science can prove anything (at this point, based on your religious orientation, you draw a line here at 99.99% of "everything," or keep it at 100%) but unfortunatelly, i do not ever think it will. There is just too much to prove! Of all the branches of science we have now, one day we will know all about theml other branches will be created, other information searched for. If you really must force an answer, id have to say yeah, theres not much that science can't eventually crack.
As to the topic of this thread, how would you know what a deja-vu is if youve never (supposedly) experienced one? Maybe what i am describing is your feeling exactly, a knowledge of what is present from a MEMORY of something past yet the memory never occured, and you just dont recognize it. So no, im inclined to answer your first question of "What do you think about it?" with a resouding skepticism, and eventually a disbelief.
EDIT: Oh and another thing! you dont have to give your respons in 4 different posts, you can just use one. if you remember something you can go to "Edit" and add it in.
Edited by Damouse, : i forgot something.
