I am not entirely sure yet what I or you would make of the fact that some fairly recent scientific evidence shows, that when we make a decision to move to do something, the actual decision to move is made approximately .25 of a second before our conscious mind (thinks it has) made/makes the decision. In fact all it (the conscious mind) does is rationalise and justify why it is doing something. So we are acting at a 'sub' level even if we think we are not.

Hi Mark -
That's an interesting observation that I was not aware of. I'm thinking that the actual decision to move is arrived at physically, which means it occurs in "real time" and that .25 of a second represents the distance in time the conscious mind is from the moment (now). I'd like to know how the experiment was designed. Do you have any info?
Best,
Ron
