Really stupid question

What is it called when you can read people's thoughts? What is it when you can see the future? I always get them confused.

Reading another's thoughts is known as telepathy.

Being able to see the future is called precognition.

Oh thanks.

In history people who could see the future where called seers . So a slang name for it is the "seers gene". It's nothing to do with genes it just a name . I've seen it writen across many articles on the internet and I think I saw it in a mythology bible too , in reference to a Celtic god being a seer .
Hope this helps in some way .

Reading someone else's thoughts is Mind Reading in a forum there is more to Mind reading then just knowing what someone is thinking.

@Lark Telepathy is when 2 or more people communicate through the mind. Mindreading is when you just read a person's mind and don't communnicate

Mind Reading is not "just" reading minds. There is more to it.

Wow, I had no idea.

can you see into the future? can you see into my future?

with telepathy you may also send thoughts, images, etc
