Do You Believe?

[Betty]

I believe I can flyyyyy... I belive I can touch the sky.... (sing it with me)

I believe that thoughts can change things. Which is why I believe that pray can change things even though I don't believe in the diety those people believe in. I haven't read that book "The Secret" - but from what I gather, it's something similar. I think I got the notion from getting into Wicca when I was younger with the idea that my thoughts could something influence things and that the ritual was the means to get me to focus those thoughts.

I believe that the word believe starts to look funny after you type it over and over.

I believe it's within the realm of possibility that thoughts can affect the world at large. I do not, however, believe anyone has provided sufficient evidence that it does, nor even a plausible theory as to a mechanism that would allow it. Only conjecture, anecdotes, and seriously flawed application of quantum theory.

Picard once saved the galaxy from a Vulcan thought weapon. Proof enough for me.
