kinesis types

[beavis]

Why not call hermato-kinesis blood-kinesis, and the same for the others with weird names? That list is too long.

[mattrox]

are those actual kinesis' or did you make them up?

Drawing on the latin bases for the words make them sound more impressive.

Some of them do look made up, but only including the real names, there are still too many.

"control over mind" isnt a kinesis at all. All you have to do is use your mind to control your mind.

[mattrox]

lol. I agree with you beavis

[James S]

Agree with you there too Beavis.

Interesting list Abcde..umm 15/26th alphabet, but most of these terms  are just extrapolations of the original concept of telekinesis. They really serve no purpose than to add more meaningless jargon to the study of metaphysics.

The word Kinesis means movement in response to a stimulus rather than "control over". Thinking about it this way makes a lot of "kineses" (plural of kinesis??) invalid.
Psycho, chromato, cryo (more accurately control of temperature), leuko (yah, right!), and baro-kinesis don't make much sense at all.

If you consider "telekinesis" as being control over objects, or as it is more accurately defined - movement of objects from a distance (assumed by psychic means), doesn't that pretty much cover most of this list anyway?

Regards,
James.

I just grabbed one at random and did as you said.  I looked it up.  You said "chromatokinesis" means "control over color."  According to the dictionary, it says "Rearrangement of the chromatin into various forms. "  http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=chromatokinesis

Let me try another one of your words: necrokinesis.  Hmmmmm, that's strange.  This is the result I got from the dictionary: http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=necrokinesis

May I ask what dictionary you want us to look them up in?  It seems to me that these "pals" were making valid points.

Glancing over this, my first thought was 'What the heck?'

Do all of these actually -exist-, or what?

And upon looking over it a second time, I saw a lot of things that are simply elements of main abilities; for example, a -lot- of those listed are just seprate aspects of terrakinesis.

So, what's up with this, man?

Oh, but they're so fun to poke at with verbal sticks!

[volcomstone]

what about control over superflous vocabulary?
verbal diarrhea kinesis?
or fluffokinesis?
or totalbullshitkinesis?

[James S]

ROFLMAO!!!

I think the government already employ people with these special abilities. They're called spin doctors. So I suppose in the field of metaphysics they would be called spin shamans?
