Furthermore only an super evolved form of human could achieve such a form of belief that it could effect their reality.
BTW, I never heard of the "The Secret", I was quoting "Quantum Mechanics Simplified" by O'Reilly publishing, thats the books with all the animals on the cover.
If that book is telling you that your thoughts affect reality, it has no idea what it's talking about. Again, research quantum mechanics yourself. The Wikipedia page is a good place to start. There is no aspect of quantum mechanics that states that your thoughts transform the external world. The greatest extent to which your thoughts would affect reality is through actions you take to realize those thoughts. You also fail to address my thought experiment in which TWO people are involved both thinking mutually exclusive things are true.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
