There is nothing wrong with scientists improving hair gel....its where the money is

An It Harm None, Do What You Will
I agree with ya Rat Faced, but I think the statistic would be more like 1 in 250 or even 1 in 500.
This Sheldrake chap seems like a decent spud :
Rupert Sheldrake: The delightful crackpotIn 1996, Sheldrake paused in his dogged research to hook up with renegade priest Matthew Fox and hold public discourses on God (which is you-know-what spelled backward). After all, the Almighty seems to be where the larger implications of morphic resonance head. What if morphic resonance encompasses the narrative direction of our lives? Perhaps destiny is more than just some literary conceit. Maybe karma is not only instant, but real as well. Perhaps we can even actually influence God herself as easily as chicks can stop random-movement robots.
Ah. These ideas just bounce off Sheldrake. He doesn't bite. After all, his God is, well, British. "I belong to the Church of England," he says. He talks about his beliefs, and he buys the whole thing -- Father, Son, Holy Ghost. Rupert Sheldrake is only a heretic in the Church of Science.

Aren't we in the trust tree, thingey?
going back to the original topic
im studing biological anthropology
and i have been taught about the potato washing phenomena
but not all the monkeys picked up the trait so how could you explain that with collective consiousness
the other theory is that they taught each other as we teach each other
and the ones that don't do could not be taught beacuse they were to old.
there was another case with bonobos in a sanctuary in the amazon
the keepers taught the bonobos how to break open nuts with a stick and the young ones did it easily but the older ones couldn't do it at all
so i think the collective conciousness has some truth in it but to think that it completely explains the 100 monkeys phenomena.
science is just a string of disproved theories
Wiz.
