Once the first impression of ridiculousness wore off a little from reading this article, I had to ask the question as to what actual method was trying to be applied here. These people seem to believe that if everybody thinks the same thing at once, (supposedly amplified by orgasm) that thing will happen, as if mass consciousness can lead to a telepathic or telekinetic event. This would assume that each person has a tiny amount of telepathic power that gets added to the pool until there is enough ‘power’ to produce a result. How many people does it take? I’ve heard of this method being used to try and bend spoons and such before, and it also resembles mass prayer, as if many people praying for something might carry more weight than just one; but is there any documented evidence that ‘mass thought’ can have an effect on anything? If so, can everyone out there please just take 5 seconds out of their day and think of me winning the lottery? I promise to do the same for you.

I don't think so....... by EyeOfSage :: NR6

I don’t think that they are trying to achieve world peace through telepathy. Rather, the woman said most conflicts are started by men’s desire for a mate. So, she said if we satisfy that desire, world peace can be achieved.

[It still sounds like some kind of perverted thinking to me]
