Gwyneth Paltrow is causing controversy again with a statement on her lifestyle website Goop about her belief that water might have feelings.
The 41-year-old actress, who recently split from her husband Chris Martin, endorsed the work of Japanese doctor Masuru Emoto, who has published several books on the theory that human consciousness can change the structure of water.
"I have long had Dr. Emoto's coffee table book on how negativity changes the structure of water," Paltrow wrote on her blog. "How the molecules behave differently depending on the words or music being expressed around it."

Regarding your theory about water,sweetheart,get back to us when you have confirmation from MIT or Cal Tech.And I *do* hope that you don’t find my comment *too* dehumanizing.
Actually, water is a lot weirder than we give it credit for. It also contains a lot of things we seldom think about.
To start with, water is ionized, that is, it usually has minerals dissolved in it. Deionized water has had almost all of its mineral ions removed, such as cations like sodium, calcium, iron, and copper, and anions such as chloride and sulfate.
If you drink it, it goes right through you, and you will even lose some minerals just to get rid of it. Tastes bleh.
Degassed water, on the other hand, is an incredibly good solvent. The gases normally found in it actually prevent things from being dissolved in water. If you used it to clean with, you wouldn’t need soap or detergent. These dissolved gases also make it taste better.
Though “pure” water is typically pH 7.0, changing its pH can result in different affects as to its taste and and use in cooking. Chlorine used to sanitize results in slightly acidic water, and stores now regularly sell alkaline water for whatever reason. The pH can have a strong effect on yeast fermentation, which matters a lot to beer and bread.
The right kind of bacteria, even in purified water, may significantly improve its flavor. For example, even with water purification, significant amounts of nitrates may remain. But these harmless bacteria consume them and release harmless nitrogen gas.
Other good bacteria will compete with harmful bacteria, like E. coli, possibly even rending unsafe water safe.
The electrical properties of water can be enigmatic, but are interesting in the context of all its other peculiarities.

Say goodnight to the folks,Gracie.
Must be she hasn’t had any script offers lately.
How much do you want to bet that she is pro abortion? Water has feelings but unborn babies are just blobs.
Then, she would be twice as smart!..........dumb look...lol
I’ll take her.
Ms. Paltrow, come live with me in my modest hovel. We can take walks together and listen to the rocks.
I am familiar with Emoto’s work and I find it interesting that apparently nobody here seemed to do a search on him or his work. Am no fan of Miss Paltrow. Water is fascinating and enigmatic.
She’s essentially a life support system for vagina
Can we bag and muzzle just the support system?
She is an idiot. Did she go to high school or college?
Liberal simpletons like Paltrow will buy into anything.
I think that you could sell a bag of “magic beans” (really, just some pinto beans) to her at $1,000/oz and she would go for it.
You can actually make a glass of water happy by adding some Jack Daniels to it.
She also voted for Obama...hardly one playing with a full deck...who cares what she thinks anyway?
Comment of the day! Hops and barley work well too.
The trouble ain’t that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain’t distributed right. - Mark Twain
I have known bad water and good water and I really hate dirty water.... they know who they are.
