This vague idea that the essence of the future reside in the present mind (and body) of humanity is used to exploit vulnerable and desperate individuals who seek answers in the present from a future technology that does not yet exist. This is why fake psychics (and the like) – who pretend (for the exchange of money) that they already possess these abilities – need to be exposed by the gate-keepers of hardline (material) science. Of course, things are no always what they may seen. Exposing a fake psychic should not be conflated with denying that the essence of the “future” resides in the “present”. All great innovations begin here and now with “vague” ideas of what might be. Material scientists carefully follow a very narrow and stringent process that measures time and space. This is an important power of the mind (and body). Exploiting one another for monetary profit is a major problem – with even the best material scientists often being paid to produce research that interprets reality in a certain manner.
