Is talking telepathy possible? Yes

Is talking telepathy possible? Yes
It's thinking in words, without the use of vocal cords or mouth.
It acts as a two-way radio, 30% of people listening and 30% talking.
Ask for more explanation.
It must be experienced to be believed on this.

Are you sure you've not got telepathy mixed up with telephony? 'Cos that definitely works.

It doesn't matter what you are,so-called telepaths have been tested and all have failed. The answer to your question is no.

It has been tested scientifically and failed. If you are hearing voices in your head seek medical help.

Could we put you in one room, your receiver friend in the next room, and randomly generate words from the dictionary that your friend then writes down? How many words would your friend get right?

Can it be experienced in the context of a blinded test?

For example: put a "talker" in one building and a "listener" in the other building, have the "talker" draw a card from a shuffled deck and attempt to tell the "listener" what card they've drawn (and the listener writes it down). Repeat ten or twenty times, then check the data---if telepathy works, the two lists should match up.

Unfortunately people have tested this a zillion times and it's never worked.

In case you are not joking, I would like to advise you to speak to a doctor. Thinking you can hear people thought or transmit them, can be a sign of serious illness....

Sorry Glf5b, and I hate to say it, but this is a very common illusion experienced by people with schizophrenia. It's not actually happening, but sometimes a part of your brain will malfunction and tell you that this is happening. Your brain can make up both ends of the telepathy---it can tell you that you're hearing things, and it can tell you that other people are hearing you.

Please talk to your doctor, ASAP, and tell him or her what you are experiencing.

THAT'S ONLY NINETY PERCENT


ETA: But, seriously, I see no reason why a large pool of ten or twenty receivers couldn't be worked into a protocol. I mean, the audience for the drunk guy and his friend who looked at the playing cards was essentially a large-ish pool.

So have you done such a test? Because until you have, and can prove that you have got results significantly better than chance, no-one here is going to take your claim seriously. They're going to assume that you are, like everyone else who has made such a claim and on subsequently being tested has proved to be, either lying, honestly mistaken, or an undiagnosed schizophrenic.

So you're saying that you can communicate with people by telephone, but only if they're within 2 miles of you? I can talk to people on the opposite side of the planet with a telephone. I think I've got you beat.
