    Well I don't easily fall for things, so there isn't much that I believe in that others don't.

    I'm more the opposite. I can spot bullshit at a mile, that other people DO believe in.

    Like China.
    15 yrs ago this place was supposed to be a paddy field, where people would ride rubbish looking bikes, while wearing even more rubbish glasses.
    (Why would you ride a bike if you lived in a paddy field?)
    But anyway, has anyone ever been to China? Anyone ever seen it? NOPE. Ofcourse some of you will say "ahhhhhh there's a Chinese restaurant near me!". Hmm, there's a place called "Kebabland" near me. But I KNOW there isn't a place called "Kebabland" on the map. Likewise, does "Soulfood Land" exist? NOPE. I don't think ANYONE has ever managed to provide a SINGLE piece of evidence that China exists.

    The story just doesn't add up. They supposedly make EVERYTHING. But they never visit America or Europe. There's over 1.5 BILLION of em. But they've never invaded anywhere. They're meant to be Communist, but they're best mates with America. And you read about the bosses living in palaces and stuff. Supposedly all our pension funds built this place up from a poverty stricken toilet to superpower in just 15yrs, and bankrupted the West in the process.

    This sounds like another "legend from the East". Along with dragons, and old ladies who are kung fu wizards. Infact the word "legend" actually means "wind of old man's behind from the East".

    Every time someone has something new its always "look at this new computer I bought - fifty dollars - look it was made in China". Or "look at this Armani suit, genuine one from the Armani store - $60 dollars, made in China".

    I said to this guy in the pub, you can't buy a computer for fifty dollars.
    But sure enough he told me all the same old bizarre story about these "Chinese".

    "So lets get this right", I said. "The Chinese make absolutely EVERYTHING, for virtually nothing. But we never see them. They're really really small, they've got weird noses, silly hats, baggy trousers, and they are yellow. And they work tirelessly for 18 hours a day, without a murmur of complaint". And he nodded his head in agreement.

    So I replied,
    "I think you're getting confused with elves, mate"

    China? Fucking bullshit! :rolleyes:

    China definitely exists. I was there the other day, it was part of the journey between me and the electronics store I went to browse.

    Nope. Tiny little yellow people in weird clothes working tirelessly for nothing and all that?

    All a bit too Dungeons and Dragons for my liking.

    I believe the 'new world' is made up and Hollywood is actually located on the Canary islands.

    I believe that the remnants of ESP, which was much more important in our primitive beginnings, bleeds through occasionally in the modern world. It has absolutely happened to me.

    I have seen precognition predict a murder. Same deal as above.

    ESP is definitely real...synchronicity and all that. Random chance or coincidence could be but it happens too often to be random chance

    I believe in something that is more than the total of what I am.

    Okay, I see it now that I turn it the other way. I normally see the molecule drawn in the verticle orientation. Those molecule sets are way cool.

    I'm not a Christian. So in my environment, all of my eclectic beliefs are way out of place.

    I can't spot the beliefs of most people in my environment on sight.

    I believe in self healing when a person takes the time to understand whats wrong, natural healing. Most dont believe in it.
    I am proof you can heal yourself naturally. Doctors tried to fix what I did in the end.

    Pretty much that.

    I believe that your thoughts shape reality.


    There's a lot of other stuff I believe that on first thought most people don't believe in-but really when it comes down to it I'm not listing any of them because lots of other people believe all the same things I do.
