This is a very interesting question and one that could only be theorized upon. I'll take my best shot and say the following as possible seventh senses:
Theory #1: What if maybe there are more levels to senses? By that I mean you can increase your eyesight to see in the dark, infared, ultraviolet, and even the germs on your hand. And then for hearing, what if it's possible to use sonar? For taste, maybe you could taste particles, like each individual bacteria that hits your tongue or is already on there. For feel, how about you feel EVERYTHING? Like you can feel the blood vessels constrict when you have a headache, you can feel your heartbeat, you can feel the muscles tightening inside you're eye every time you blink. All in all what if it's possible that the seventh sense is an unlocking mechanism that can improve on the old senses. If you think about it, there were only thought to be 3 states of matter, but plasma and the Bose-Einstein condensate were recently added to list. According to my science teacher I heard her call plasma a gas taken to the next level. Thus, similar to gas, who's to say that maybe our senses can't be improved upon?
Theory #2: This one might be a bit philosophical but what it it's the ability to see beyond the curtain of reality? I mean who's to say that you're real or I'm real? What if our senses are simply limiters that hinder our ability to push further into reality and see what is fiction and what is not. What if nothing is real? What if maybe the seventh sense is a type of blankness, not really perception or feeling, but like all of them rolled together into one ball of sense that allows us to process the world in a different way that shows us what it truly. I can't really explain it better than this; essentially it is a combination of all the other senses that ultimately allow us to view "reality" for what it is and isn't.
Here's a video that a video that might help prove my point further on theory two, it talks about cuils, a unit of measurement to tell you how far away you are from reality. It may just be a joke, I think it's quite funny actually. However, it could be a possible seventh sense put into practice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=nfdEdE96En0
Theory #3: This one may be a long shot as well, but here it goes. Since people who can communicate with the dead are thought to have a "sixth sense" then what if it's possible that the seventh sense would give one the ability to communicate and even comprehend God? I mean talking to god seems like the next logical step further from communicating with those who have left this earthly realm. So why not have the final step closer be the ability to perceive the all-mighty and understand his eminence.
Thanks for your post! Blind people do use echolocation. It's pretty amazing how well they can navigate and even describe the size and shape of things around them. If you have the time, check out human echolocation on youtube! Very cool!
Oh yeah I have seen that before. I've seen a few episodes of Stan Lee's Superhuman on Discovery and one of the people featured was a blind man who could do just that. He would actually go on bicycle rides, it was pretty cool.
What are we missing?
