Almost all your decisions are made by your unconscious mind.

I know for a fact however, wisdom grows, and decision making ability grows. They grow at different speeds in different people, but generaly the contemplative do better than reactionaries.


Wisdom equals experience, decision making skills equal confidence, imo, and age brings about both......intelligence is measured, currently, by the amount of different ways one can problem solve. The thought(in a nutshell) goes that an in depth analysis of ones experiences will reveal perspectives that weren't utilized the first time around. Done with an objective mind, new ways of coping and understanding could arise........which could possibly effect an IQ test.

I agree with the point despite your mode of communication...morality is an aspect of maintaining the status quo, which doesn't encourage different ways of doing things, good or bad.

I would say that survival may sometimes require infanticide, not evolution.

Implicit.

There has been some recent interesting information, in the journals, linking mis-folded proteins very similar to the ones that cause mad cow, being responsible for memory creation. Where that new research will take us who knows...


Responsible for memory creation....a misfolding protein??? Or has the capacity for memory creation? Wouldn't the former imply the existence of a misfolding protein in youth?? I'm kind of confused by this..........

They have been recorded to, usually to threaten or bully a weaker consciousness. They usually don't mix, probably to retain their integrity for the purposes of the experiment. If the unconscious is trying different models, it needs to know how they react to the world indipendently so if it finds the 'right' one it can discard the others without allowing their flaws to leak over into the chosen identity.


But I would think that a biological connection would mean that the possibility for the different "sets" to become consciously aware of each other would exist..........

Suffice to say, I disagree that is an advocation of tunnel vision.



My interpretation is definetely a product of my experience.......

Thank you for the reminder.

I ran into this site yesterday, thought maybe it would be interesting while discussing this topic.

www.geocities.com...

by the way, wouldn't it take the conscious mind, to make a conscious decision? the unconscious mind and influence it, but it would be the conscious mind that knowingly takes the action....

Whether or not the conscious mind knowingly takes the action doesn't necassarily mean the conscious mind was the decision maker. To consciously make a decision is to weigh more than one option and consider potentialities, etc, to varying degrees. Many actions in our world are carried out as a result of reaction or instilled moral/ethic codes. How often do you see people do something because someone else did it? I myself have made decisions like that. I consciously remember the experience but didn't necassarily make the decision. Does that make sense?

The conscious mind may have a preprogrammed "rationale" to explain away an action. This leaves a vast amount of space for the unconscious mind to operate its influence........

maybe the conscious mind made the conscious decision to turn on the automatic pilot in some areas of our lives.......thus deferring control to the unconscious mind?

The REG (Random Number Generator) may bring new light to the subject of the unconscious mind.

www.rednova.com...

From the site...

"We're very early on in the process of trying to figure out what's going on here. At the moment we're stabbing in the dark.' Dr Nelson's investigations, called the Global Consciousness Project, were originally hosted by Princeton University and are centered on one of the most extraordinary experiments of all time. Its aim is to detect whether all of humanity shares a single subconscious mind that we can all tap into without realizing."

Hmmm. IMO - we seldom use our brains - most often our brains use us. ...So decisions are made subconsciously, and are conveyed to the conscious mind only when necessary for action - and then the conscious mind rationalizes the decision (usually quite simplistically) to enable action.

...I used to play with a mental state that I thought of as a kind of Ninja consciousness. ...I could 'flip a switch' to turn on my creative and logical thinking capacities plus open the subconscious, all simultaneously. ...and could literally feel connections zipping back and forth ping zip ping - it also tended to be kind of a 'whole body' experience. ...Used it at work for serious problem solving, like production management which can sometimes get hairy, or for physical stuff like sailing or leaping from rock to rock across rushing rivers. And driving LA freeways of course. Great fun.

...Sometimes, doing this was exhausting, and not necessarily related to sustaining the state for long periods of time. Other times it was not. I assumed that when it sucked me out I was probably doing it wrong somehow.

...Anybody know? Have similar experience?
