coincidences or not?

@Roger, sorry i was trying to employ sarcasm.

@joey, i think by "data teleportation" you mean "quantum entanglement" and by "dark matter" you mean "quarks." hope this helps.
 
I saw this quantum particle thing on tv, it said it was the theory that once two things meet, some particles bond or something and those two things will always be connected

String theory is only true if they can observe evidence that proves it. Scientific evidence for God on the other hand can never be observed, and thus God can never be proven to exist.

Edit: Also string theory does not prove what the OP is talking about.

Wrong, I Proved the existance of God (The Great Spirit).


wHAT ? is string theory?......

^Strings can never be proven to exist either. For the simple reason that in order to see a physical object, you have to shine a light on it! And not just any light, but one of an appropriate wavelength to interact with the object. Since the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation is inversely proportional to its energy, any EM radiation of a short enough wavelength to interact with a string would be of such immensely high energy that it would eradicate the string entirely.

I think that's why some scientists have given up on string theory.
 
those arent the scientists the world needs. hell i wouldnt even call them scientists at all. at least not determined enough to be any significant help toward advancement. what we know about things is constantly changing. its a shame some believe a substances make up ends at the lense of a high powered microscope. there are electron shells around atoms, and those can be observed. we are our own limitation. the world needs more scientists who ask "why not?" rather say "thats that".
theres something interesting that you can do. you can take a leaf, cut it in half, then put it on an old photographic sheet. after you run an electrical charge through the photography plate an image will appear of not only the half leaf, but of the half that is missing. its called aura photography or theres a more scientific name for it i forget.
and time travel is possible. it is theorized and pretty sure being experimented with using mass displacement. the greater the displacement of mass the greater the negative motion.
physics are based on what we think we know of the sciences. our minds are our own limitations. everything is based on this world, though who is to say there arent other things extraplanetary that defy our own understanding of physics, in this world, not existence itself.
and about whoever said the hippie thing. is philosophy merely mental masturbation? perhaps. but it does deepen the spirit, something the world seems to become void of as every new generation comes to pass.
 
Sometimes on higher-dose PDs, I get very strong intuitions about things that are going to happen, and then they do. So far it's been nothing that can't be explained (albeit by stretching a bit) on the basis of lucky guesses or just knowing other people really well & predicting their behavior, but I still wonder sometimes.

The strange thing is that I never get the same kind of strong intuition and then have it not pan out. A friend of mine was trying to convince me that it's confirmation bias, and memory can fool us more easily than we think, so I suppose that has to be considered as a possibility.... but I'm pretty sure it's not that.
 
While I think quantum physics are beyond believing in them or not - much of it is proven... I think one always has to be very careful to translate it to everyday macroscopic event. I think that on a mental level there might be some connections but not really so far as to say that mental activity could manipulate the physical plane and conjure things.

There is no basis for that whatsoever, its not science unless you have an actual theory that can be validated, it sounds not even like junk science but non-science... coincedence.
People who believe in the paranormal tend to see patterns where there is none, this is shown experimentally. I dont care if you like the term paranormal or not... making something appear that was not there before would fall under that term.
And then there is also selective perception, if you look for something or have it in the back of your mind you see it more clearly when you scan visual information. Sometimes you can even think you see it even when its not there. I am convinced everything can be explained quite simply like that...
Ive been on the slippery slope of 'what the bleep do we know' kind of mumbo jumbo and trust me when I say you dont want to fall into the self deluded thinking patterns of trying to make sense of psychology by using quantum physics you have heard about.
Even if only for the reason that quantum physics are terribly complex and there really arent that many people who really truly and deeply realize what it means. I got it in college and honestly its way advanced. This sort of stuff is on a very different plane of existence, dont mix things up because you see similarities.

Also this has nothing to do with psychedelic drugs, I will have to move this I am afraid.

Please choose if this is more material for the science and technology forum or philosophy and spirituality (I think the latter). Or do you strongly urge not to move?

about 6 or 7 months prior to 9/11, i was noticing digital clocks read 9:11 when i saw them. the car clock, the cablebox clock especially. for some reason the only time i ever unintentionally glanced at the time it would read 9:11. but ONLY when i looked at digital. for the most part when i wanted to check the time i either asked someone or looked at a wall clock. now i would deem this coincidence if:

1) there had been a previous 9/11 attack and now i was seeing things i was trained to look for and,
2)if i had unintentionally looked at a digital clock when it read 7:45 or 2:13. but no always and ONLY when it "happened" to read 9:11.

i personally believe not in coincidence. things happen because they MUST. the things that occur have already taken place due to the fact that the motion/forward movement of time propell events into materializing. what will be 5 minutes from now already is because of situations that are leading up to it. because only one choice/path/decision can be made, we have no free will. either drop the penny out your hand or hold it. whatever your choice, you cannot do both and in doing so you can never ever know what alternative choice if any would have been made.

You're thinking about disprovability. It's whether something can be disproven that makes it scientific. Theories are kept until they are disproven or replaced (theory of classical mechanics was replaced by quantum etc.)
 
which basically states that everything thing in the universe is interconnected on a micro-molecular level, and that humans have the ability to channel energy or something in order to influence events.

Everything in the universe is interconnected. We are made of star stuff and are essentially the universe observing itself.

Let my man Carl drop some knowledge on you.
 
We are part of everything and we experience part of everything, that much has to be true. :)

i intended it to be more based around philosophy, but figured it would get more views and replies here, which turned out to be right. i dont have a problem if you need to move it though

Yes, sounds like entanglement. On a related note here is a link about synchronicity.

Synchronicities are interesting. I think you can somehow make synchronicites more likely to happen, by synchronizing your mind or something. During the psychedelic experience I often have series of minor synchronicities - as expected - usually in connection with music. I find it pretty useful and it can increase the intensity of my trip in a kinda magical way.

i enjoyed that article on synchronicity!

hmmm... i am very interested in string theory's future but i'm not sure that strings being immeasurable will be the end of it.... it offers too many explanations for known phenomena and the fact that physicists are already comfortable with the idea that some things are immeasurable because of quantum theory. fwiw, i feel that its just too complex to be real but all the brightest physicists i have ever known have been behind it.

Me too, I just have to let go and let them reveal through and to me.
