“Why do people come downhill? Well, they want some unpredicted motion, that’s what they want. Well, they’ve fought predicting motion, because a thetan can predict motion at I don’t know what distance into the future.
“I dare say that a thetan in good shape could predict the course of an air particle now floating in this room for the next thousand years and probably draw it down to the finest pinpoint. And yet, that air particle will probably flow all over Earth and be in every town and hamlet you can think of. And he’d know exactly what moment and what year it would be in what town and what hamlet. I mean, here’s prediction of motion. He probably would just know this.
“Well, imagine the poor plight of this beast, this thetan. Let’s just imagine the poor plight of the poor fellow. He has this terrible situation on his hands—he knows everything. Well, he could predict everything. Poor fellow. No game.”
— L. Ron Hubbard
