If psychic powers exist

>>18151524
If psychic powers are real i doubt there are enough people with those abilities as to consider them a real problem.

OP can not fathom any action or any motive not rooted in the material world.

>>18151555
So every psychic chooses not to meddle with the material realm? How convenient.

You're implying that psychic people are "wise" I suppose, so they aren't greedy. "Oh no! I would never do that! My powers would go away if I wouldn't help people. BTW, the fee is $50"

Don't encourage the troll threads. Also, nice get!

It really depends not on merely existence of such powers but on their reliability, how easy they are to control, how powerful they are, whether their use requires special preparation or paying a price that's worth using them and if there's nothing else on the way of using them for such purpose.

What if being able to use psychic powers with any reliability requires training or invasive molding of personality enough that it is not worth it or the person afterwards cannot really enjoy or care about what such powers provide?

Or what if misuse of such abilities is actually already controlled by some groups, beings or even very mechanisms of human mind rebelling against certain actions?

In regards to occult, for example, the most commonspread approach toward more serious practices is right hand path and that stuff basically teaches obedience and servitude toward higher will/divinity/whatever - so, ironically, if you want to progress and be able to do shit, you actually have to keep working through that path and thus become less willing to do shit for yourself.

Not to mention the fact that you still look at this shit from the perspective of a person who craves cash and shit to acquire things. If you'd be really wise and powerful - you wouldn't need to steal anything, you'd be able to provide for yourself whatever you need. Who knows how many of those billionaires and celebrities actually deal with some occult stuff.

I won't say they do, but fuck, it's fun to wonder about such things.

Implying this does not happen lol. The general population would never hear about it though. The media is controlled for many reasons because we would not want to create panic now would we?

Or they can just play the lotto to not incur bad karma. They probably do

That isn't how karma works.

I agree. That's not how it works because karma isn't real. The universe is random and cruel.
