Deja vu is defined as the illusion of having previously experienced something actually being encountered for the first time. I myself get this feeling this quite frequently in situations where there is no denying I've never been able to experience it before. Scientists are now led to think that this is caused by a momentary delay in the brain's processing, which is why they say the feeling can't be captured. However, I can hang onto the feeling as long as I ponder it and my boyfriend can't get rid of the feeling until he's thrown himself down on the floor or something of that nature.
Do you agree with science, or do you have a better explanation?

How can a delay in processing be used to explain a feeling that something has been experianced before, when it happens more than a minute before the actual event? Logic is failing me at this point...

That's the thing. Scientists say you've actually already experienced, a minute ago, but you're brain is only processing it when you've got that feeling that you've done it before. Basically, it's like a cd skipping. Only the cd is your MIND!!!
Still don't believe it because my bf and I are freaks.

I believe it would be more likely that the occurrence has been stored in two different places in the brain at the same time and the feeling would be the brain trying to determine which memory is the real memory.

being that very few things are proven facts ie people need air live ect. I always take what sicence says with a grain of salt what they come up with is just a current theory accepted as fact until proven worng latter.... but they might be on a track in the same area when it comes to explaining Deja vu.

People want to believe the fanciful too often. Yes, science may come up with an idea and have it proved wrong later, but they are trying. We'd like to think that Deja Vu is some latent ESP or some other junk, but really, it all can be explained. We've always put a feeling of mystacism with that which we don't comprehend. The sun was once pulled across the sky behind a chariot, and Morpheus spread his star blanket across the sky to put us to sleep every night. Now we know the earth rotates. Why should this be any different?

I once read that Deja vu was a memory from a previous life and if you'd done the same thing before the memory sneaks through or something. But I would rather beleive that than the theory that my brain skipped.
