Someone mantioned Jean Grey (X-Man´s action figure) on a discussion on the other day, and it occurred to me that this would be an interesting question... Imagine you have this power of reading minds? Would you really want to know what people think about you? Would you really want to know if your partner has ever cheated on you? Would you really want to know everything that goes in the mind of your partner when someone attractive passes by?... Would you really want to know everything...? May the debate beggin... ;)

if you knew what others are thinking, would you still be interested to talk to them? There's joy in discovery.

Hey, Well in a way it would be really cool because you could tell which ever girl would like you, then if you would ask her out, you are guaranteed that she will say yes, which would be cool. But then again, you could also read other peoples mind with not so good thoughts. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

If I will be given a power to read minds of other people of course I will do it. It's a God given gift so I will not waste it and besides knowing what other people think is an advantage for me even if he is thinking wrong about me at least in that case I will know what kind of person is he.

But elg, if there´s something we can´t controll it is our mind... For instance, i sometimes just want to kill my boss... ;p Obviously, i wouldn´t commit such an insane act, but let´s imagine he has that power to read my mind...he would instantly fire me... Not even mentioning the joy of discovery that nympha was talking about... What do you think?

I think everyone is curious to know what others think about him/her. I would be lying if I say that I dont care and I am not interested in reading minds but lets face it, we can have big disappointments and instead this thing will harm us. Well its important to know what others think of us but its best to face people normally because we might find ourselves lonely or else with nobody who really understands us. Well I am curious to know what others think about me but I prefer not to know it in this way. The reactions might not be that good I suppose.

I think the main danger of this is the fact that our thoughts and our mind are absolutelly uncontrollable..so, there´s absolutelly no limit to what you can think...there´s absolutelly no social filter...no thinking before verbalising...and that´s a huge rollercoaster of dangerous possibilities...
