goldenchild17 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Anybody know anything about it? I'm sure it's probably not compatible with the Faith but its somewhat interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmotherofpirl Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Can you start by defining it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenchild17 Posted October 8, 2009 Author Share Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) http://www.noetic.org/about/what_is.cfm yeah it seems more problematic the more I read about it. Definitely some questionable new-agey kind of stuff in there. But the underlying idea of being able to measure the affect of the mind on the physical world is interesting. Also the possibility of scientifically measuring the real physical power of prayer on its intended target. Plus the power of the collective mind as opposed to one (ie. two heads are better than one). So far it seems to be used for many not so kosher ideas, but I think the potential to study prayer and the soul (if this science can be legitimate) is a fascinating concept.
