Question: Can you believe or not believe something into existence or non-existence? I'd like to hear someone defend how you can believe something into existence. That would be...magic? lol

According to my limited understanding of quantum physics the mere observing of an event by an observer influences the outcome. I've also heard it postulated that the entire universe is a consciousness that is forever imagining itself into ever changing forms and realities.

I can believe an erection into existence 😅😅

Not always.

@RobKings admittedly, but that wasn't one of the parameters 😄😄

I think you have to believe you can accomplish something before you will make the effort. So in a way, believing it into existence is the only way humans ever bring anything into existence.
