Do you believe in the paranormal?

I believe in bigfoot nothing better then going out in the woods looking for a big monkey

Yes. I have lived in three houses that had ghosts, including the one where I grew up for much of my life. (Dad was in the Army so we moved around but that was the one we owned.) It helps if you are sensitive to it. I bought that house from my parents and my son as a very young child could see them also. Needless to say, I had to stay with him until he fell asleep and knock on the bathroom door non-stop while he was in there so he knew I was a door away. Obviously, I never told him of my experiences, since he was very young but I also never told him he was imagining things, as many parents in denial say when kids try to tell them. The younger a child the most likely they can still see. I stopped being afraid when my (dead) grandmother showed up once when I was very frightened. In another, our dog could see the same things as me and he would react to them. After one of my cats was killed by a pit bull that came into our yard, I could feel him jumping on my bed, same as before and see the foot impressions as he walked to his usual position. It stopped when I got my current cat in 1999. People can believe what they want, but I know that there is a "curtain" between alternate world that is sometimes thin. Quantum physics recognized the probability of that being possible. That's as scientific as it gets. Many people are in denial and are afraid to admit it because they are either afraid to be seen as crazy or because they are too afraid of the unknown. I've never been harmed nor do I know of anyone who has. (Not that I'm saying there are not other things out there that can present a danger.)

That's indoctrination. You probably heard that story when you were really young and impressionable.

That's how the church gets them too.

After my Mother passed away, she came around almost daily. I could smell her brand of cigarette smoke, even though she had quitter 25 years ago. Once got her in a picture we took after cleaning some antiques she had collected.
Other ghosts here as well. We have had a residential ghost here since moving in A child's ghost. Plays with lights, makes music on a baby toy keyboard. One time some keys disappeared. They were for a cabinet our Father used, off limits to my brothers and I. The whole family looked all over for them with no luck. A year or so later we moved to another state. Took some belongings, others went into storage while the house was rented out. A few more years passed after we returned to the house. One day there they were, just sitting on the corner of the table. No one had put them there. They just WERE. Yes. I have had close contact. Want more? Contact me.

Yaow, well i

Well if this is "evidence" put me down as unimpressed.

Oh boy, once anyone on the internet begs "Quantum physics" stop reading, there is nothing more to be profited by it.

I've never wanted to gently poke someone in the eye so much in my life, as much as I do right now :

If you say there are no ghosts, then how do explain all my missing socks, HUH????

There used to be a house on our block that we thought was haunted, because you'd hear people screaming inside and because people who went in never came out. Later on we found out it was just a murderer's house.

You know I was joking, right?

Nope. Never seen one, heard one, felt one, etc. Science hasn't supported any entities of paranormal activity nor have any actually been captured and authenticated.
Ghosts, spirits, souls, etc. are just something that people WANT to believe in so that there's an explanation of unexplained events that may happen in their life.

Science can't even explain all of itself. So how is to say? I have an open mind but no I have never had an experience.

Sox missing are the ghoul in the dryer. Not a ghost.

I do believe, simply because I know science (Bio major with lots of lab experience), and I know that it can't explain some of what I've been through. I'm also a wiccan, so there's that. Can't find anything but magic to explain why my spells work out

This planet is approximately 5 billion years old and something or someone has died on every square inch of it. I do believe that people BELIEVE they have seen or experienced something that they THINK was paranormal, but that something actually exists - no, I don't, and frankly, I think it's silliness.

Well let's just say that science can't prove/disprove that "paranormal" entities exist. Kinda like religion, it's based more on faith. Personally I'm not one who uses faith as basis for evidence.
So I'm never afraid of "evil" or spirits or demons etc. because I don't happen to believe they exist. Fear of things that don't exist really deter people from achieving greater things in life.

I've had paranormal experiences while in sleep paralysis, but that could be because of the whole half dreaming thing, or the insidious movies could be real, who knows.

Also, when at home, I get that creepy vibe of 3:00 am. Think that's the witch's hour or whatever

My mom's side of the family has lots of "paranormal" stories, pagan stuff
