Interesting article in Yahoo news. I don't find it hard to believe that we humans have a "sixth" sense. We are after all animals and therefore have some hardwired "instincts". It is that gut instinct that tells you not to cross the street just yet, then suddenly there is a car wreck which would have killed you had you crossed the street, or you know, without knowing why you know, that somebody is following you Of course the "instinct" doesn't work 100% of the time either, if it did deer would not be caught by the mountain lion and the mountain lion would go hungry. Then again the car accident scenario doesn't really fit into this model does it? What clues is the brain picking up on? Is it dumb luck, coincidence?
Snip from the news:
THURSDAY, Feb. 17 (HealthDay News) -- Ever get a gut feeling something just isn't quite right, and make a decision accordingly? Science is beginning to suggest those instincts may have roots deep in the brain.
Research in young volunteers points to some kind of "sixth sense" -- a mechanism in the brain that picks up on subtle clues, then sends out subconscious signals of trouble ahead.
The finding could help explain certain intuitive phenomena seen among humans. For example, in the recent Asian tsunami, aboriginal people sought out higher ground in the moments before the disaster, as did many wild animals. Could subtle changes in weather or the environment have warned them early on?
So what causes Earthquakes then? Or are they all frauds too?

why do you want to disprove it so much.
mabye there is some fact to the whole "sixth sense" theory.
it doesnt mean your psychic, its just a bit more intuition.

I believe Matt Mariott is SPAM. Since you've replied to him though, I won't get rid of his post.
I've seen other posts that are just a short sentence & then then free republic website...

That's called 'sight'. It's one of the classic five senses.

Hi,
I am the one who have sixth sense. I have been observing this fro the past 1yr, what ever happens tomorrow or after one week time or after 1 month time that I will know today itself. Not all the things but important things in the life. I am not sure whether this is the spiritual power or human being natural power but its true.I had sensed more than 20 incidents which became true after a day or 1 week or month time.

Humans have at least six perceptual senses,without describing intuition as one. Proprioception,or kinaesthetic sense,by which one feels how ones body is oriented and moving in space is fundamental and necessary for survival,certainly all vertabrates have such a sense. Then of course there's a sense of irony,but,like the senses of humor or outrage not all humans seem to have it. These would seem to be requisite for surviving civilization.Hard to tell if we will

Hi,
The only the way to get Sixth sense is to keep the mind in thought less stage, then the soul is coming to exist, that knows any thing and everything that can do anything and everything. You can feel this sixth sense around 4AM in the morning.

Citizen Premier-
Since you are so into the dictionary, maybe you should look up the word irregardless that you used in your posting. It is not a word, but is actually a mistake people make by combining words. What I believe you meant is regardless. Just an FYI.

People don't believe this but its true. There are so many Gurus here in Inida. People who dedicated their life for preaching the god words. If your mind is open and help others don't blame others then you can see the God. He is one. If you pray him as Christ you can see Christ, if you pray him as baba you can see him as Baba. He watches you each and every second of your life.
