Good morning fellow nexians, thank you for reading and replying! I see a lot of input, which I need to process first, before I reply.

I saw your post last night already Void, I was just too tired to reply.

I agree on the above. This is actually what I tried to convey when I wrote "imagining something into existence". By that I wasn't really referring to inventing a new technology (even though I regard this to be an equally important ability of ours).

I would like to choose Dmitri Mendeleev as an example. He invented the periodic table and there were a few gaps of which he knew they need to be filled with missing elements. He made predictions about the attributes of these missing elements. Then about 6 years later one of these elements was found by another group of scientists, which kind of confirmed the validity of Mendeleev's periodic table. He mentioned that he got the idea while he was dreaming, which I find fascinating if it is indeed true. Where did this information come from? Has he "received" it from an external source?

Another thing I found to be faszinating is the fact that we have put so much effort into building technologies like the cern hadron collide to proof other theories. A massive undertaking which helps us to proof and understand even more mysteries of the universe. This drive to understand and explore must have be there for a reason and I think it comes with a certain kind of responsibility. Most of us are just missing the point by not realizing that these abilities come with great responsibility.
