Omens

Post by mystex »

Is there a rational explanation for why this phenomena may or may not occur? Schizophrenics' experience these things constantly. As do many mentally healthy individuals.

Mystex:

Omens are the left side of the equation of oracles; the right side is prediction.

Study the omen literature of ancient Babylonian society.

Psychotic minds react to their immediate situation, environment and world with a heightened sense of acuity induced by madness or information overload in the brain.

It is anxiety and panic finding its soul-mate in a concrete symbol invested with dread and awe.

Does this help you?

Do you often sign up on a forum and on your first day resurrect a completely empty two month old thread just to stick your pompous (and searingly obvious) reply on it?

Respectfully,

prince

Prince:

I do not understand where you are coming from?

I had just read Professor Jean Bottero's treatise on Omen literature, so I had a natural interest in the subject. I thought I had added something useful.

Obviously, you disagree. Did you wish to add more lucid, meaningful statements?

I picked up on some of your statements in other posts, I must confess that I enjoyed them immensely! I apologize for your displeasure or distemper I induced in your mental equanimity or equilibrium.

Respectfully,


John E.D.P. Malin

P.S. The charge of 'pompous' is too strident.
