My best friend can predict the future (seriously)

[Dragonbite]

How does he or she know when they are viewing things in the future? If they are like me, I day dream constantly and think of things non stop. If I was able to get glimpse of the future, it may not appear no more important or any different then my vision (day dream) of being rich and driving a Bentley 30 seconds before. Thus how would that person know when they see the future or just daydreaming until the event they for seen is or just occurred? And if thats the case, how helpful is being able to even see the future?

It could be that the vision "feels" different than a daydream in some way. Ever have a Deja Vu? I've even thought I had a Deja Vu only to find it happening just the way I "saw" it before yet at a later time. It felt like it was the 3rd or 4th time through that exact experience. It's hard do describe it, though.

Bet your friend didn't predict that ...

Elfy,your too cool for words!=D>

So glad I'm not superstitious.

How come people who can see the future never win the lottery?

Because there is a conveniently universal rule that good psychics can never personally profit from their gift.

Otherwise you might be given to wonder why it is that a self-proclaimed psychic doesn't pick winning lottery tickets any more often than anyone else.

If that rule is not enough, then please refer to the rule that says the psychic cannot choose what he/she sees.

The Universe is large and its mysteries many. I cannot disprove the existence od psychic powers. However, there being no evidence strong enough to compel me to posit its existence, I do not need to posit its existence to explain anything.

Bring me peer reviewed clinical or laboratory data that indicates anything greater than pure chance and I will consider that evidence.

"psychics" Simon Baker is the Mentalist on CBS

Nah i suppose there could be some legit psychics out there, probably not those who publicly claim to be though.

I predict the future on a daily basis, right before a thread is closed or the Ban Hammer swings

^^^ This.

There are many things we do not know. One such mystery is why I have five mobile phones for my own use, Mrs Lisati has another, and two more that would have connected to a network that was switched off about 6 months ago. (Part of the answer lies in "upgrades" over the last couple of years....)

The biggest mysteries in the universe are.....

1. Where do all the socks go?
2. Why do women go to the bathroom in pairs or more? nothing in there is a group activity.
3 where the heck are my marbles?

Come on people, there are 7 billions of us. Someone is born to heal, someone to make tons ofmoney, someone to see future.. what is NOT to believe*!

ps. My "gift" is to see how small I am in terms of universe hehe

[lisati]

1. Where do all the socks go?

Our house has a resident gremlin who gets the blame when near-new socks go missing, leaving only socks that are old, full of holes, or otherwise unusable.

3 where the heck are my marbles?

I don't know where mine are either!

[QIII]

My question about the universe is: Why, as we become older, and presumably wiser, does it take longer and longer for us to look for our trifocals before we realize they are on our faces?
