Telepathy doesn't exist, it's superstition. Telepathy is a satanic thing.Originally Posted by Dioklecian
Manifestations of trying to telepathise are mostly related to , because it's related to subjective mental images - trying to understand mental images of others. It's like .
What do you mean by it's similar to Fi?
And isn't telepathy the ability to transmit thoughts rather than images?

acquiring feelings of others
Although there are satanic "telepathetic" practices, acquiring mental images of others can be healthy, as long as you're not going to be superstitious about it.
Thinking process is related to possibly is acquiring thoughts of others, and is acquiring mechanical interactions of others.
I thought that is the one that aquires the emotions of others ?

Yes but through supposedly objective, "visible" means -- not through anything needing anything like telepathy.Originally Posted by Dioklecian

And I don't truly understand emotions, I don't see for instance how people can change others' emotions in an objective way.

IF it existed, it would be just like another sense - but it doesn't exist, so it's a non-issue.Originally Posted by Dioklecian
"Emotions" in the sense of Fe are "objective" emotions in the sense that they can be agreed upon due to objective criteria. We can both agree that if someone is smiling broadly and laughing, that person is happy.Originally Posted by Dioklecian

-And I don't think that people agree easily with each other about the content of emtions, some might think that a poet is expressing this emotion while others might think that he is expressing another.

How can it be Satanic if it doesn't exist?Originally Posted by machintruc
You know, satanistic telepathic practices... Satanic practices are superstitious and don't work.Originally Posted by Joy
In my catholic association, someone talked on a case of "satanic healing" of a person which was about to die, which worked... for weeks, then he died. Satan can't make miracles.
What about angels?
I know of someone with catholic association who was about to die who prayed to his God, which worked... for days, then he died.Originally Posted by machintruc
I'm pretty sure that there have been a lot of people where were about to die, then didn't for days... or weeks... or months... or decades...
Anyways, I just asked because I was brought up religiously and taught that Satan and demons do have supernatural powers, they just aren't more powerful than God's.
Personal knowledge rational functions are semi-telepathic when invoked under the transcendental function.
Satan is a subordinate of God, because God created Satan.Originally Posted by Joy
Satan can tempt you, because God can authorise him to. God permits the Evil, for a greater Good. God lets you choose among the Good and the Evil.
Religiously, you mean, which religion ?Originally Posted by Joy
Bible.
Technically they called themselves "Baptist", but an extremist, authoritarian religion is an extremist, authoritarian religion as far as I'm concerned. What they call the excuse they use not to have to think for themselves doesn't matter much. Not that your beliefs or faith is like that. I wouldn't know.
I'm a Catholic myself, because Roman Catholicism is the only true religion. In my milieu nearly everyone says that and I agree with that, because it seems very logical (in the sense) to me. Nothing is more logical than the existence of God. God and the science ARE compatible : if you don't believe in God, you can't really be scientific nor pragmatic. God created everything which can be measured in meters and seconds.Originally Posted by Joy
Even if God does exist, this statement is fallacious.Originally Posted by machintruc

People do change the emotional state of others, as well as their thoughts - but not through telepathy. We used words, gestures, body language - etc.Originally Posted by Dioklecian
The fact that you don't always agree doesn't meant that it's not objective.Originally Posted by Dioklecian

This thread speaks for the creator of this topic's understanding of the implications of Socionics on human psychology.

I think having to work with the same information structure can lead to a commonality of shared perceptions that can seem like telepathy.

Nevermind what I said. I apologize- I made a broad generalization based on the mood I was in after reading and disagreeing with posts made by several other forum members when I made this statement.Originally Posted by Dioklecian

Tell that to Carl Gustav Jung himself.
I'm not defending the OP's ideas, but I am defending the OP himself, because if you think paranormal ideas are not just wrong but completely stupid, what are you doing on a Jungian site?
