sun Posted June 21, 2006 Report Posted June 21, 2006 I know what intent is. I pick up on it, I sense it, but what IS intent . . ? Is it a sense, too? Quote
Mercedes Benzene Posted June 21, 2006 Report Posted June 21, 2006 Should this go under chemistry??What exactly are you trying to say/ask...??This does not make any sense!! Quote
sun Posted June 21, 2006 Author Report Posted June 21, 2006 What is intent? Can you tell me?it's behind everythig. Quote
Zythryn Posted June 21, 2006 Report Posted June 21, 2006 Intent is a decision, nothing else. You make a choice to take a certain action at some point in the future. That choice is intent. As far as thought being generated by chemical actions in your brain, this might belong here, I would think it would fit better in a different forum though. Quote
cwes99_03 Posted June 21, 2006 Report Posted June 21, 2006 In fact even then I would say it should reside in psychology or biology not chemistry. Quote
InfiniteNow Posted June 21, 2006 Report Posted June 21, 2006 Intent: That's where I am after any evening sitting around the campfire, drinking a few beers, and telling stories with friends. In tent... :eek_big: More seriously though... It's the point where our goal oriented motivations meet with past experiences in our conscious awareness. Quote

Drip Curl Magic Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 intent, eh? depends on what context. Noun or adjective? Quote
Drip Curl Magic Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 I would say that for most humans... intent would mean something similair to the words- aim, goal, and/or purpose. But in terms of it being a sense....? You're trying to think on a deeper level. There is obviously something you've realized recently that is causing you to try and get to the bottom of intent. (care to explain?) But I don't think I agree with the notion that intent is a sense. I have an intent to just be happy. And I think everything else does as well. intent might stem from selfishness... feeling the need to tinker with things to help stimulate chemicals in your brain to make you happy. intent to live. intent to be happy while doing so. intent. intentions. hmmm...?
