RE: Fear: It Is More Powerful Than You Think
The power of thought is already well known to the scientific community. It goes by the name of the Placebo Effect. This is the reason experiments need control groups. The scientific community is constantly trying to remove the Placebo Effect variable from their experiments by creating a group that THINKS they are being tested but aren't. Someway somehow, perception can sometimes manifest itself in reality.
There's also that experiment where the particles behave completely differently when you record them with a camera. It seems that even particles know when they are being watched.
I think we need to stop testing these for-profit artificial drugs so much and start pumping way more resources into understanding the Placebo Effect itself instead of purposefully trying to cut it out of the equation.
I guess there's no money in putting research into something that everyone can benefit from for free. Maybe we'll soon™ have a cryptocurrency for that.
