(January 31, 2010 at 12:19 pm)Watson Wrote: I'm not sure about this term...somehow, it seems like this is blanket term to simply write off certain scenario's as being mere tricks of the mind or projected thoughts, which closes out the possibility that what these people may classify as 'magical thinking' might actually be, well, magical.
It isn't about certain scenarios as you put it but about the entire concept that what occurs in the mind and external reality being connected in any way, shape, or form.
