Could We Read Thoughts?

even though having the ability to read peoples thoughts would be an excellent way to solve problems, i.e. crime.

This would also cause alot of arguments in todays society, because inturn....causing people to claime ideas which are not there's. there's.
its can also help twisted people like rapest, easily find out that address, phone number and many other personal details of there next victim.

this would be a great skill that has many benefits, but can also bring many problems into our society, to be honest it depends on your outlook and stance in our community.

Well put. The only thing we have left 100% private is our thoughts. Why in the world would you jeaporize our final stand against privacy. There are things that go thru peoples head that should never ever known by anyone but that person who thought the thought. I understand that they figured out how a few areas work and preform during certain normal tasks but its not even possible to read a mind using this method until it has been completley used on every action a humnan does so that they know what wave does what ect. Hi

i dunno what it is but i can read my xs mind all his thoughts and what he is thinking and what he does everyday. i love him to death and now only neighbors we send each other messages and though its been a year since the break up i stiil dream with him. he knows all my thoughts and secerts not because i told him but he does the same he cant stop dreaming about me or thinking about me. we have dreams of little things that will happen in the future and can have conversations.....i swear its all true i dunno why. is it possible to love someone so much you can read their mind..because this is exactly what it feels like.

Yes it is very possible to read ones thoughts, it's easier then you think, i believe it is a gift that should only be given into the right hands, "why?" has a point people could use it for terrible things
and NmK clearly you have a probelm with this, because you must think about some terrible things, so the idea of someone reading your mind must scare you greatly because deep down you know, if someone knew what you were thinking people would be disgusted with you.

But it tends to be a much worse situation, it would seem everyone (or at least almost everyone) thinks of the same terrible things, weather its murder, rape, wanting to steal something, or things far worse, some think about children and in my honest opinion anyone who cant control thier thoughts do not desevre to have such an abiltiy, or an extreme do not desevre to have the abiltiy to even think.

There are both pros and cons, and seeing the behaviour of human beings today, the cons would out-weight the pros. Such a gift should only be given to the enlightened, someone who would n ever use it for thier own gain, but to help others.

And last but not least girl, it sounds like you and your ex are meant to be together, seeing how you 2 keep having dreams of eachother hear eachothers thoughts (something that happens in close relationships)it's logical to assume your his soul mate, but you must have broken up for a reason.
