The whole idea of "auras" is also nonsense (and could easily qualify as an irrational precept.)

Luminon, you are a very strange person.  I wonder about you. 

 

and they have these guests on along with a lot of other kinds of guests. its a late nite radio show wit i think heard them claim about 16 mil listen probably overkill claim but still if people believe you can't stop them. you can make fun of em and that will entrench them more. but who knows.

 

 

 

General

I'm guessing that this whole "indigo child" thing is just the product of those who can't come to grips with their child's ADHD.  Then again, I doubt that many kids actually have ADHD.  Maybe if kids would get recess instead of "Test Drill 101" then they wouldn't be so antsy in class.  Thanks, No Child Left Behind.

Um...

Well, how can I say this without laughing and falling off my chair.

There are two ways to visualize DNA molecules that have been seperated in a gel matrix by electrophoresis. The first is staining. If stained, the molecules in question will turn the color of the dye. The most common dye is coomasie blue, resulting in the effect you described. The color of the molecules in a matrix will depend on the dye. I use ethidium bromide, which makes the molecules turn a distinct silver color. A comparison of two staining techniques on SDS-PAGE matrices is demonstrated below:

Now, with respect to the other method, this involves the use of UV light, not polarized light, under which the analyzed molecules will flouresce, and again, all look the same color. Of course, this doesn't mention the fact that a) DNA doesn't turn blue in UV light and b) even if it did, this would have nothing whatsoever to do with blue-colored skin and c) everyone's DNA looks the same under UV light, regardless of skin color, or I might add, regardless of whether the DNA belongs to a bacterium, a fish, a mammal, a plant, etc. DNA is...well, DNA. As I said before, having blue skin won't change the chemical makeup of the primary heriditary molecule held by the organism in question.  I leave the explanation of that to your creative imagination.

You are very strange indeed to think that the blue color that is produced by a lab test on everyone's and everything's DNA has even the slightest connection to the possibility that there exist people with blue skin.

I suppose this conveniently forgets the slight problems posed in assembling a proper refutation of something which is true? Come now, at this point you are merely being immature.

 

Tell that to people who sees them. I don't, I have mainly touch-oriented ESP. None of my family can see aura, but we had here a few people who could. And very well, I can tell you.
A friend (he's now about over 40) told me about an event he had. He was sitting in a bus, and "'magically concentrated'" on a pretty girl sitting far ahead of him, to see if he can make her turn around, or whatever. That a girl didn't sit calmly, she was clearly disturbed by something, it looked like the effort of mind worked. Suddenly, a man stood up in the front of the bus, came to the back side and started to yell angrily at my friend about his bad behavior, that he must not do "that" anymore... Nobody in the bus really knew why is that man so outraged, what he's yelling about, except of my friend...
A bit similar thing happened to me (without being yelled at, I handled things calmly), it's just about a practice, by a practice to perfection.

I'm always glad to make your day more uhm...interesting Whenever I feel like that, I live, think and speak as a form of art, well, maybe a fascinating and strange art, but some people really likes my personality. I keep getting ideas and I consider as my duty to realize them.
Of course, every several days I have to go out driving on a bicycle like crazy for about 3 hours, to maintain a physical health and clear my head a bit, listening to a psychedelic music at the same time. I call it The Bicycle day

Probably yes, but anyone on my place would be the same, if he would experience what I did. Daily, weekly, monthly, things you wouldn't believe even your parents.  I trust them, I saw a lot of what they saw, so this is  the reality, I wonder. Every time I could think like you'd say 'rationally', I just recall any of strange stuff I ever experienced. Don't be  worried about me, I believe in what I can touch. It's not my fault I can touch etheric matter, which is mostly invisible and much subtler than a dense matter, thus untouchable for non-trained people. And it's not my fault you didn't train it. One of my friends did, he was succesful in it, and he agreed with me.

 

So, this is what I will keep in mind, if I ever hear someone talking about detection of indigo children by DNA samples. So, what I have heard, might be a mistake of a common laboratory procedure... How this could be mistaken, if it's so simple?? (rhetorical question) I even heard people talking about a laboratory tests, which can determine if you're an indigo child or not, but I never checked it out, we had not much of spare money in that time, that was several years ago. I'm glad I'm quite neutral to this particular topic, the world is still full of surprises.

 

When pyrokidd mentioned the genetic trait, causing a blue skin, it didn't seem it has anything in common with UV light or DNA tests. I certainly didn't claim it. I think an existence of such blue people may be true, there had been some messages about people with a blue skin during the history, even in modern history of USA. Also, it could be a hint for a blue color of Hindu gods.

I don't mean specifically this case of "indigo children", on which I don't have a personal opinion, this is why I'm asking by this thread. Thanks to all, specially you, deludedgod, for sharing your knowledge on this.
That quote was just a general statement, about some others areas of knowledge (or ignorance). There I have personal experiences that they work with near 100% efficiency, as well as for hundreds of other people I saw, but an intelligent, educated person would fight to death to prove it's not true. It's interesting, that laics sometimes doesn't have a problem to understand, what an educated person (like higer university degree I mean) practically refuses. This is a phenomenon observed everywhere, I'd like to have it psychologically researched. This is also why sometimes a generation of academics must die or retire, before a really big paradigm shift can occur. It wasn't so obvious in this era of exponential technical growth, but it was in times of bloodletting till the beginning of 20th century. Now it's just more hidden, but still, for example, we keep rejected a well working science, which just found a new occurence of natural laws in reality, like a law of resonance and a law of energy preservation, just because it's outer appearance and public reputation. Maybe this didn't ever happen with you, but more probably you see just a crazy teories being refuted and a surprising amount of people believing in them anyway.
 

I know a hearing hallucinations. Sometimes I come home, and go to check out a TV or computer room, if anybody is there. When approaching the door, I could swear I hear a computer case fan, or a silently playing TV, just as it is when a TV is really on and I walk around that room. But when I open the door, nobody's there and everything is set off.
Before a sleep, I sometimes keep hearing a strange, beautiful but completely unfamiliar music of various genres. For example, choral, baroque, piano, industrial/heavy metal, psychedelic, and so on. I'm glad for it, whoever sends it, but I'd love to have the music converted to mp3, it would make me rich and famous musician.
I never had a sight hallucinations. I only heard about them from a friend, who tried some mushrooms.
Anyway, I can't imagine, that a hallucination would be coherent, that it would always look similar, possible to control by will, and that it would reflect a reality. Aura vision, or etheric-material vision at least, should show an emotional state of a person (if the emotional body is visible) and then a health of body organs. The seen state of things of course matches, this is why no-one with a real aura vision ever considers it as a hallucination.
Of course, beginners in training, who doesn't see the aura properly, may surely consider the unsignificant things he sees, as a hallucination.

"I could swear I hear a computer case fan, or a silently playing TV"

How can you hear a silent tv?

Please tell me you didn't shave off the beautiful hair you had off your head!

English is not your first language, obviously. What is your nationality, Lum? Just curious.

I wouldn't dismiss everything he is saying on "energy." Track some of my previous posts on this subject. I've experienced, albeit indirectly, that  of which he speaks...

 

Mutant -Marvel comic books, particularly those of the X-Men mythos, is an individual who possesses a genetic trait called an X-gene that allows them to naturally develop superhuman powers and abilities. Mutants are members of the subspecies Homo sapiens superior, an evolutionary progeny of Homo sapiens, and are considered the next stage in human evolution.

So you have mutant powers?
