How would American society respond to a public display of telekinesis?
I want to go out in public and not worry about showing my psychic powers in front of people. I feel like hiding my powers from other people (even my closest friends and family) is hiding a big part of my 'true self'. Yet I don't want to endanger myself or anyone else. I've read somewhere before that there are certain types of religions that will punish those not of religious authority (or anyone for that matter) who publicly demonstrate, acclaim, or even are accused of utilizing such powers. As I previously mentioned, I have no intentions of causing any grief and/or endangerment to anyone. I feel incomplete of my 'true self' by not showing my 'gifts'. One final emphasis, I'm not deluded, insane, cruel, or power-hungry. In fact, I'm much more mature than that. Based on how I'm expressing myself through these texts, my maturity should be quite evident. So should I use my 'gifts' publicly, or continue to hide them from all other people? Thank you for your time, patience and whatever answer you supply.
