This is something I strongly believe and I wish more people thought about. Do you happen to know if we have a lot of scientific evidence for it?
- mistermann 5y agoAt best there are some studies that show patterns, but that doesn't stop people from believing it and spreading the gospel on forums - before long, it's an axiom and no proof is needed. Omniscience has become extremely popular in the last few years as well, and I'm pretty sure there's no evidence for that at all (but I'm speculating about that, perhaps there is something out there).
