by supernatural I mean things like ESP, people who heal for no apparent reason after praying to God etc.

I'm not an Atheist, and I have never come across anything I would call somewhat supernatural.

I believe that it may in fact be a part of having the free will, that people are allowed by divine entity, that causes athiests a pure lack of supernatural events in their lifetimes...unless one accepts something as possible it will (possibly be removed) from the events in that life, as a sort of gift.
In the same way a faithfull person gets what they want, the unfaithfull also gets what they want and expect a lot from their lives. This is the grace of Divinity.
A part of the wonder and glory of God. ~Free will~ equals an equal gift for the non-religious. The gist being that they appear to get what they want, a lack of supernatural experiences.
Don't worry though! I have had their share myself, since I liked the ones I had, and wanted many more of them!
ESP rocks! Ghosts exist! Telekenesis happens! Time is made for travelling in! and God is Awesomer than anyone ever can or did or will imagine....believe me!

Some Atheists also believe in aliens, supernatural creatures, and ghosts. They may also be spiritual, but just not loyal to some God. I am an Atheist, but I don't pay much mind to those things. I think it's intriguing though to listen to other people's stories.

I am in awe of some of the wonders of the world and the universe but I don't need gods to explain them. I have found no evidence at all of the supernatural and I don't need it.

They do not but they choose to not believe. They tell themselves there is a scientific explanation for everything. I know this because I used to be an atheist. Until I found my husband and his loving and kindness even when he knew I did not believe helped me see that no science can make people so wonderful and peaceful like my husband. Now, My Lord and Savior have my soul for as long as He chooses to let me live. GOD Bless

Yes, that's correct. I've never seen anything remotely supernatural, and if I did, I would see a shrink.

No, I have. (Though a skeptic all the way mind you.) I just don't equate such things to gods/religion related things. I feel that if it exists, it's just very much still a part of this world.
ESP or course, I feel it's just a part of natural instincts that we don't understand how it works.

I don't know about other atheists, but yeah...that pretty much describes my outlook on things.

no, they just percieve them differently.
