36070Y333 Next time a thought pops into your mind,
Q
STOP AND
ASK YOURSELF: 'Why
did I think thìs particular
thought?
Did I decide
a minute ago to think this thought, and
only thèn thìnk it?
Or did it just arise
without any direction or permission from me? Ìf I àm indeed the màster of my
thoughts & decisions, can I decide nòt to think about anything at all for the next 60 seconds?' Try thàt,
and séé whàt happens! Doubting free will is not just a philosophical exercise.
It has practical implications!
If organisms indeed làck free wìll,
it implies that we can manipulate & even control their desires using drugs,
genetic engineering or direct brain stimulation. If you want to see philosophy in action, pay a visit to a robo-
ràt laboratory! A robo-ràt is a run-of-the-mill rat with a twist: scientists have implanted electrodes into the
sensory & reward areas in the ràt's brain! This enables the scientists to manoeuvre the rat
by remote control!
After short training sessions,
researchers have managed not only to make the rats turn left or right, but also
to climb ladders, sniff around garbage piles, & do things that ràts normally dislike, such as jumping from very
extreme heights?! Armies & other corporations are showing keen interest in the roboborats, hoping they will
prove also useful again in many needed tasks and risky situations!? For example, robo-rats might help detect
survivors trapped under collapsed buildings, locate all kinds of bombs and booby traps, ànd map underground
tunnels & caves?
Je kunt je voorstellen
hoe dergelijke contrapties bevorderlijk zijn voor algehele brainwashes,
MANY kinds of covert deceptive operations, alcoholisme- & andere drugsbestrijdingsdiensten,
terrorisme & uitroeiing ervan? Want wàt wàs, simpel gezien,
evolutie uiteindelijk anders dan gedragsstimulatie
ÈN -frustratie: de média
hebben het er
maar druk
mee!
