BRAIN
TEST
Free
will or synaptic wiring? You be the judge.
Check
out the following exercise, guaranteed to raise
an eyebrow. There's
no trick or surprise. Just follow these instructions,
and answer the
questions one at a time and as quickly as you can!
Again,
as quickly as you can but don't advance until you've
done each of
them...really.
Now,
scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something)...
What is:
1+5
2+4
3+3
4+2
5+1
Now
repeat saying the number 6 to yourself as fast as
you can for 15
seconds. Then scroll down.
QUICK!!!
THINK OF A VEGETABLE! Then scroll down.
Keep going.
You're thinking of a carrot, right?
If
not, you're among the 2% of the population whose
minds are different
enough to think of something else. 98% of people
will answer with carrot
when given this exercise. Freaky, huh?
