People make an infinitely big deal about psychic ability and a "third eye" and "sixth sense", you know, no one knows how many other senses we have, we could have 35 extra senses and you know what's gonna happen? People 1000 years into the future will look back and say "Wow, they were so wrapped in a SIXTH SENSE? Unelightnened monkeys...." Do you agree?

No NO NO NO NO NO!
I'm the biggest skeptic I know.
But let me tell you one of the foundations of science- just because you cannot prove a hypothesis, does not mean that you can prove its opposite!
You can't prove the sixth sense, but that does not mean you can prove its non-existence, either!
I did not believe in Santa at Three and A HAlf because it took ME so darned long to trick or treat just on my block!
Most logical minded woman ever.
And I've had five premonitions of car accidents that affected me, even one that happened while I was dreaming.
I've sensed the presence of a dead person in a house where the previous owner had committed suicide!
And it still boggles my mind.
So, I live with the mystery.
I live knowing that humans are not gods and do not know everything- and I don't believe in a god who knows everything, either.

I do agree, sort of.
I think the so-called "sixth sense", or "extra sensory perception", is not extra at all. It's part of our standard equipment, but over many thousands of years we humans have gotten used to ignoring it. We have so many technologies that seemingly make some of the more subtle senses unnecessary. But I believe we still have those senses. They're just sort of atrophied in most humans.

so bad for you I guess, that is the the spice of existentialist thought ever heard of sartre's treatise, being & nothingness or kierkegaard's nausea!
-It is also the backbone of human VNO in Psychiatry studies. Of course no one can blame you if you have no idea or appear idiotic about pheromones research done by Prof.Clive Jennings-White.
But seek knowledge and dont stop questioning as Einstein urged.
good luck

About getting tired of hearing about it, no big deal to me. Who are you hanging out with that they talk about this so much?
About possibly having other untapped senses, totally agree there.

a man is shot with a poison arrow, but before the doctor pulls it out, he wants to know who shot it (arguing the existence of God), where the arrow came from (where the universe and/or God came from) why that person shot it (why God created the universe), etc. If the man keeps asking these questions before the arrow is pulled out, the Buddha reasoned, he will die before he gets the answers.

Then it must be about time we moved along to the seventh sense. Lets talk about that for awhile just to get you comfy.

My 6th sense tells me you have some anger issues around not having the 6th sense.

Everyone has sixth sense as you call it.
Others may call it intuition.

I don't think there is such a thing as a "sixth sense."
