Interesting theory that can change the world for the better?

Posted by robertwills @robertwills, 3 days ago

I discovered an interesting theory that was described by the inventor Nikola Tesla about 10 years ago. I believe this theory might be, like Tesla stated, of great benefit to everyone, including benefitting health in all respects. Basically, the theory states that all of our movements are forced by the outside and not be will, as it appears. Isn't that crazy?

Tesla referenced the theory as described by a noted biologist named Jacques Loeb who wrote a book titled "Forced movements, tropisms and animal conduct" which goes into technical detail about how it is scientifically proven that animals are not moving intentionally but are being forced to move. It's like how some plants bend to the sun.

So what do you think about this? Incredible, right? I mean, everything we do is not our will but is "forced" from the outside. I am typing this post but the environment is actually forcing it; it's not my will, Does anyone else see this too? Isn't it the most amazing theory ever? Or not? Any ideas on the subject?

Sounds like a more sophisticated explanation of 60's comedian Flip Wilson's signature line, "The devil made me do it!"

@scottij Flip Wilson was, indeed, the comedian who made this the catchphrase.

How does that explain what is happening when more than one being, whether human or other animal, experiences the exact same forces, yet behave differently?

For example, what causes one person for fight back against an external force and another to be moved by the same force? Why does one person seek shade in the desert, while another fal.s from the heat and just lays there?

I tend to agree that plants, without the ability to ambulate, must bend towards the sun for survival, but it is too simplistic an explanation for animals.

No doubt external forces have a lot of influence, but it is not absolute, other than some immutable laws of nature like gravity.

External forces like societal norms, laws and rules likewise are not absolute - hence one person may become a criminal while his brother does not. Or one Muslim woman might accept Sharia law with its constraints while her sister rebels, in spite of the known risk to her life.

To accept the premise that we have no power over these outside forces, whether natural or manmade, is to deny the essence of humanity.

I'm not disagreeing or agreeing with you; I'm just stating what the great Tesla said and what he said he stressed that he is totally convinced of the phenomenon and that it would be of the greatest benefit to mankind. I would say it's definitely worth looking into.

I was a strong proponent of this theory when I was in gradeschool and was late handing in my homework.
"I really wanted to do it, but I was forced not to."

I think Tesla meant something different than that.

I believe it comes down to herd mentality. It's what keeps religions in business. People are the happiest when they don't have to think.
