I think that Emoto-san's work and the film are fascinating. I don't need them to be scientifically provable. Most of the things that have made a real difference in my life aren't scientifically provable.
I actually think it's a mistake to try to tie notions like the personal choice of experience to physical, scientific concepts like quantum physics. The idea that my expectations and preconceptions and choices give me what I experience of the world around me isn't something to prove or disprove; it's a place to look and think from that gives access to new things. Science, on the other hand, has this thing called skepticism, which is very appropriate in science, but which destroys ideas that are only meant to be useful places to look and think from.
I don't NEED my philosophy to be "true" in the sense of "provable in a double-blind placebo-controlled study, peer reviewed in all the leading journals". It's PHILOSOPHY. It's chosen and proven by personal experience, nothing more or less.
