Sixth sense and intuition
#13
RE: Sixth sense and intuition
(August 12, 2015 at 10:55 am)Ben Davis Wrote: I think such phenomena are our instinctive, subconscious recognition/communication tools kicking in and providing our conscious self with extra information. We all have subconscious tools, of varying levels of effectiveness, that developed when we were primarily instinctive creatures. There are people like Derren Brown who have a particular talent at consciously deploying those tools (e.g. recognising the tiniest physical responses to stimuli in his 'mind reading' techniques, using specific communication methods to provoke predicted behaviour) but there are also people who do the same without realising what they're doing (which is what I think is happening when people are sincerely convinced that they have 'psychic' powers). IMO sixth senses and 'infallable' intuition fall in to the same category.

That creepy feeling on the back of your neck when meeting a what seems to be a perfectly nice person, but they rub you wrong? Or a new house that feels spooky? Or just even a feeling that something is about to happen?

There are many more than six senses.

What else is there to say?  

Other than ..perhaps..  that we can't ever know for sure whether we have another, super duper jimdandy sense which is completely cloaked and therefore unaccountable for by science.  Still, I'm willing to go on record as a naturalist toward extra senses.  Always was a rebel.[/sarcasm]
