What happens if you eat a tub of ice cream while not thinking anything at all?
Similarly- I understand if you’re sucked out of an airplane, if you think positive on the way down you’ll live, think negative you’ll die, I got that, but what happens if you’re asleep or unconscious while falling?
That would be “your intellect”. If you’re going to mock somebody along these lines, it’s usually a good idea to make sure you don’t make 3rd grade-level grammatical errors.
Elitist grammer snob.
I assume you will be consigned to oblivion, as the Universal Law of Attraction states that like attracts like.
Since the thread is already blown to hell, I’ll add this tasteless post:
So, the workers in the Twin Towers–they willed those planes to smash into them?
Who knew that so many New Yorkers had a death wish?
:rolleyes:
I’m off to leave an offering for the tooth fairy. I missed the Easter bunny but I’ll make up for it with Santa…
Does this work for sex too? Becasue there’s a hot girl at my job who I’ve been imagining myself banging for years now, and it hasn’t happened.
I don’t have to justify why I hate Oprah.
Well your probably right. The bulk of the post still remains to be both true and relevant, other than the suit comment. And look at the big brain on you. I can’t remember any details of the grammer lessons I learned in the third grade.
According to Oprah, they were “sacrificial angels” - whatever that means.
According to some religious fruitbats… well, we all know how they explained that.
I believe “The Secret” says that the “Law of Attraction” has something to do with physics.
Thing is, none of the four fundamental forces work the way the Law of Attraction is supposed to, where like attracts like and repels its opposite.
Gravity- attracts everything.
Electromagnetic force- positive charges attract negative charges, magnetic north poles attract south poles.
Strong nuclear force- attracts different colored quarks to each other, not same-colored quarks.
Weak force- changes quark flavors or changes leptons into neutrinos.
I hate to break it to that guy, but those checks aren’t from God, or the Universe. They’re from his credit card company, and they charge 20% or worse interest starting when you cash them…
Oh, and if this does work, you’d all better watch out. I’m visualizing myself having a solar mass of antimatter to play with.
That’s attractive.
Hey, it works!
No way. :eek:
Oh. My. God. I was joking. Jesus on a stick–this is one messed up school o’ thought.
I don’t like Oprah (for the most part), and now I have no respect for her. To say something that stupid and be a global celebrity whose influence is legion strikes me as extreme hubris and/or ignorance so deep and wide and long that a black hole would be easier to breach.
C’n I play with your solar mass of anti-matter? Let’s play monkey in the middle!
Yes but Marauders get their own demiplane ultimately.
I can see The Secret as being an easy mishmash of thought that encompasses many traditions in finding the heart of oneself, and working toward a seeking of spirituality in one’s core, working to find a human sensibility in how to use it in daily life.
[Here’s the basic intro from the Secret website](The Secret reveals the most powerful law in the universe. The knowledge of this law has run like a golden thread through the lives and the teachings of all the prophets, seers, sages and saviors in the world’s history, and through the lives of all truly great men and women. All that they have ever accomplished or attained has been done in full accordance with this most powerful law.
Without exception, every human being has the ability to transform any weakness or suffering into strength, power, perfect peace, health, and abundance.)
What gripes me is, that, it’s stated as a powerful law that every human being apparently has, yet it’s “The Secret TM”. If you have achieved the point of awareness that you can pass on beneficial knowledge to others, why would you be trademarking it??? That really is a point of ignorance from a spiritual standpoint. Why would you TM something that is a given grace? Yer supposed to share that with good heart without selfish hoarding TM’s from what I know.
So, yeah, Grr.
