Do we own our thoughts?

Question

or are we drones who is implanted with thoughts subliminally?

Answer 1

We think of so many things all at once and we don't even realize it. But what matters is the thoughts that is primary and stronger, the one that takes a hold of us and ultimately guides or inclines us to make a decision, from what clothes to wear and what direction your career might lead. But its funny how people easily forgets that even if they say that we own our thoughts, our minds can be easily fooled (suggestion), our memories can be easily altered (hypnosis). You can say that you thought of something on your own but what you might not realize is somebody might have influenced you to choose that direction. Examples are numerous, from the clothes you want to wear to a beverage of your choice. Its really hard to say that there are no subliminal suggestion happening in today's society, more so we are living in a consemer world. We may own our thoughts but the corporations nudge us to make a choice that they have already chosen for us! quite paradoxical, don't you think?

Answer 2

No. Thoughts are issued to us at an incredible rate! Did you know, that we have thoughts that we don't even know we have? That's how our sub conscious comes into play! Our concious mind may think one thing but our sub-concious mind my think many(thousands of) things! Some people don't know this, or want to believe that this is possible. I wish I could have only one thought at a time but, I can't! So, we have a right to pick and choose which thought we wish to follow. Hence, being owners of our 'Actions'! We are responsible for what actions we take; not what we think! As 'Thoughts' and 'Actions' are two seperate components; neither can exist witout the other, or they just fade away. -i think.

Answer 3

naw we own our own thoughts. Sometimes other powerful political things sublimanally help out too. Just always have an open mind to anything is always possible. Don't get brainwashed to alot of things such as a smokescreen. There is alot of evil out in the world and depending how strong your mind is and how strong of a person you are will leave the outcome of your destiny. Good luck and remember a mind is a terriable thing to waste....

Answer 4

We are not implanted subliminally as much as we are directly, consistently and conscientiously. Social control happens from the moment we are born.

Answer 5

Of course we own. Sometimes it seems like that they come and go without permission. That happens becaouse we can fill only our concious activities. But our mind also has underconcious part(very big part) and this part rules things that we do. But we don't realise that and think that we act in particular way just because visible reasons. Read Freud. Don't belive everything that he says but I'm sure you'll find many interesting things.
