%X THINKING cannot occur without electrons, a point philosophically, scientifically and irrefutably confirmed for all, by the Electroencephalogram (EEG). However for 100 years, electrons and their ilk have scrupulously obeyed the Uncertainty Principle. Probability rules. <span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">The way human beings reason is by concluding that if event B is seen to follow cause A, it will do so again tomorrow¡ªelectrons don¡¯t even support this today</span><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">. Hume¡¯s critique of causality which Kant failed to refute, gains traction from Quantum Mechanics. Despite needing to insert the word ¡°probably¡± into every human reasoning, healthcare demonstrates an element of unexpected stability. The label ¡°intent¡± is expanded to cover this anomaly, endeavouring to highlight how living cells cope with the impact of this unknowability, this Uncertainty. Mental health follows suit, though here the uncertainty comes additionally from ¡°blockage¡± of the frontal lobes consequent upon trauma/terror. The collapse of today¡¯s psychiatry is pathognomonic, and </span><i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">medically</span></i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> solipsistic. The role of ¡°intent¡±, and its close relative, consent, are offered as remedies, not only for mental disease, relabelled here ¡°social defeat¡±, but also for the global disease of violence, culminating in the biggest </span><i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">health</span></i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> threat of them all, thermonuclear war.</span></span>
