Default This is kind of complex... Universe Theory

Alrite, My friends and I were talking one day and we got on the subject of reaction times. Well as you know, your body relies on chemical reactions to create electrical signals that travel amongst your nerve cells, to your brain, back through the nerve cells, and into your muscles. Well, those reactions take time, far more time than our reactions do. So there are two possibilities. We are working with an ingrained latency between our thoughts and actions that we've coped with for so long we don't know it exists. Or possibility 2, we already know what's going to happen, and we're just playing it out. So if we already know what's going to happen, how do we get this knowledge? Again two possibilities; dreams or a sixth sense. I think it's a mix of the two... where you connect to the universe and pick out what you're gonna do from a set of probablities and physical reality is just where you go to experience and understand why you make your choices. I also think that physical reality is a very limited way of percieving the universe and that naturally occuring psychoactive substances are around to reconnect you and remind you of your other senses and universal selves.

It seems to me that life is like a chain reaction...that you actually sense the exact order events that lay ahead of you and that each beat of the drum is the way
we perceive where we have been.

life then, would be perfectly balanced between what's on the path ahead and
what we remember from the path behind.

if you're talking about quick reactions such as lifting your finger from a hot surface quickly... there's something called the reflex arc that you learn about in highschool biology. The sensory neuron (on your skins surface) gets a signal from the outside environment and sends that signal JUST to your spinal cord. There is an interneuron in the spinal cord that relays the signal from the sensory neuron to a corresponding motor neuron. That motor neuron is the effector, and takes the needed actions to get stop the sensory neuron from sending the 'negative' signals. Thus your hand moves away from the hot surface without you even thinking about it.

And to address any other reactions, signals can move up to 120 meters per second through an axon, and they can transmit up to one thousand signals per second.

This is all fact. There doesn't need to be a 'dream world' or 'sixth sense' for these things to happen. Your body is an extremely complex system on its own.

Default I'll stick with standard nervous system theory

Electricity moves at the speed of light. Chemical reactions within our cells happen in terms of microseconds. The nervous system is designed to respond in fractions of a second. It doesn't take long at all for these "reactions" to occur.

Red face The universal consciousness

There are those of us who believe in the universal consciousness. This is the idea that all the souls who have gone before and all the souls who are with us now have a "thought connection." This thought connection, although it is "invisible" to the the awake mind, is a constant source of ideas, inspirations, aritistic talent, etc.

If this in fact is true, then it must also be an added factor to reaction time. This "universal consciousness" is the sum total of all thought, both here and in the adjoining planes of existence. Perhaps this can even be thought of as "GOD" in some contexts. It may in fact be here that reaction begins. Universal consciousness can be argued to exist in all time. Not just present, but past and future at the same "life moment." If this is so, could not reaction time be quickened by a "warning" from this thought bank?

And to think, I haven't been wasted in almost 10 years.

Please God, make my plants grow...

That's a nice thought, but I don't see how it can be true.
Footlong and sticky explained it well.
Besides, if what you believe as a sixth sense were true, or if you already knew what was going to happen, wouldn't you be able to sense something like a baseball flying towards the back of your head, and be able to turn around and catch it?

I didn't say it was an automatic connection. It doesn't happen when you're consciously wanting it to happen. But it can and does often happen when you're not expecting anything.

Ever suddenly get an idea with no explanation how you got it? Or wake up in the middle of the night with the answer to something that's been bugging you for quite a while?

It can be fine tuned to work for you if you want. But why would anyone want to waste such a connection to catch a baseball?

I'm not trying to convince you that it's true or not true. That's ultimately for you to decide for yourself. There are examples all around us, every single day. You just gotta sift through the evidence and decide for yourself what's true and not true.

You gotta make your own decisions in life. That's the bottom line. But there are clues all around you leading you in the best direction for you. If you don't let yourself get caught up in what's going on, and make an effort to make the best decision for you, life becomes a whole lot more interesting and fun. (This is not saying make the decision based on what you want at the moment.)

Because it's about to smash you in the back of the head?

I'm not trying to dispute your beliefs or anything, because when it comes down to it, I know nothing of the meaning of life, other than what is in front of me, and even that sometimes seems questionable. I was only wondering if the subconcious sixth sense you guy's refer to, that told you when something was about to happen to make or help you react more quickly, would you be able to react to things that your other sense's cannot sense, like a baseball flying at the back of your head.

Perhaps there's a reason for you to be hit by the baseball, and you've already chosen that you'll be hit by it. it's not too farfetched to believe that you've already made your choices ahead of time, sub-consciously and that you live those choices in physical reality. It would go to explain phenomenon like dejavu and preminisions.

Arise -SWS-, that is the same idea as fate, except your theory is that we have already chosen our own fate instead of it being determined by some outside force. That's an interesring twist on the fatalist viewpoint, but I have never believed in the concpet of fate. It's too cruel. I think we are the masters of our own destiny, and we make these choices as we live our lives.
