Answer 2

I believe there's something to some supernatural experiences. My aunt Leah used to joke about a ghost that inhabited her house, opened doors, made noisey footsteps, that sort of thing. She called him "George". I actually saw George one night when I was about 13, or at least I saw his shadow. I was sleeping in an upstairs bedroom at her house (with a night light, so I wouldn't have to negotiate my way to the bathroom in the dark, if the need arose). I woke up during the night and noticed a shadow on the wall. It looked like a man dressed in a cape, with an arched collar, and he was wearing one of those stovepipe hats like President Lincoln used to wear. I thought it was my imagination playing tricks on me, so I began to look around the room to see what objects could be casting this weird shadow on the wall. Then, suddenly, like the proverbial ton of bricks, it hit me. The shadow was on the same wall as the night light! It should have been on the opposite wall! There was no other light source in the room! Needless to say, I existed that room with a quickness, and forever afterwards, I knew why the ancient Greeks called ghosts "shades", their word for "shadows". But nevertheless George was harmless. And I never saw him again. Today, I have a ghost in the house I live in, but not a very active one. I've only seen her twice in the 30 years I've lived here. Both times, it was just before sundown, and I only saw her out of the corner of my eye. My peripheral vision caught some movement on my staircase. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a woman in a white bridal gown descending the stairs. But each time, when I looked directly at her, she was gone. She was no shadow either. I saw the white dress, the white veil, the whole nine yards. Like I said, I believe there is something to ghosts. I'm just not sure what it is.

Answer 3

"The supernatural" is a false category.

If something exists (however weird, and not catered for by previous theories) it is in actuality part of nature.
We may need from time to time to adjust the concept of nature, but to propose a separate "realm" does not actually make sense.

ESP? Ghosts? Telepathy? Out-of body experiences?
They are either part of nature, or part of myth.
To be decided...

Answer 4

i am a medium and have many friends who are also , so the amount of spirit evidence i have seen is amazing
i have had so many experiences with the paranormal i couldnt even count
and i believe they are as natural as anything else .. so i dont even call it supernatural anymore

Answer 5

I have precognitive dreams every now and again. I've kept a dream diary since high-school, so I've been able to keep track. Mostly I dream scenes from my life rather than useful stuff (like Lotto numbers!).

My mom saw her Dad waving goodbye to her on the night he died. When her sister phoned her later to tell her the news, she already knew.

Can't think of anything else...

Answer 6

we live in a "natural" world that is governed by rational logical events, the supernatural does not exist

Answer 7

I really like Carlos Santana

Answer 8

No such thing as the supernatural.

In fact that's true by definition.

If there were something other than what we know as nature it would have to eventually have to be explained in terms of natural causes.

Otherwise you're talking about things that don't exist.
