Anyone with experiences that many would classify as "supernatura;" or having to do with the spiritual realm? I'm asking in all sincerity so if you want to answer with a silly response just be rude, DON"T!!!! I'm only interested in hearing responses from the heart from open-minded people.

I am so pleased by all the great reasponses so far. The individual who claims i am "encouraging" belief in the supernatural simply by asking who has had such experiences is illogical and rude. I cannot encourage those people's beliefs and responses, they have their own beliefs that exist strongly independent of me asking about them. Relax a little bit dude. But to the rest, i am grateful for what you wrote.

Yes. Opposites exist, both animate and inanimate. You need not even put your mind to this as to strike and strain about it; just know that such are laws of life and such laws are abided.
The light summons the shadow; and the shadow exists by reason of the existence of light.
If there exist angels, there exists, too, their opposites -- call them demons if you will or any name you wish to ascribe to them...
In reality, invariably, however, what you are really addressing here is excess or extremes: in that regard, know that the true dark (or light !) exists by reason of an imbalance in the mind of the experiencer of it.

Yes, actually they do exist - and at times do interfere in the affairs of men. The interference is voluntary though, they will never force you to do something against your will - they have to get the permission from you.
Even Satan himself, as powerful as most people know him to be - he will by no means force you to do his bidding without your permission. That's why he is also known to be cunning and deceptive - his ways are not straight, he will want to entice you and have you agree to what he wants. Now, some will say 'he is not such a bad guy after all, at least he asks your permission'. Well, you may think so! If he was such a reasonable, nice guy - he wouldn't need to entice, seduce, deceive and lie to you to have you achieve his purpose!
So, demons and angels do exist - and if you desire to have a view of what they look like, it is very much possible - but costly! All I can tell you is, before you put yourself in a position to see demons and angels, first and foremost, be safe!
Ten points please!!

Once, during a time when I was searching diligently for the truth about God, I was driving down the highway, and saw a hitch-hiker. I had never picked up a hitch-hiker before, but a little voice in my head said "stop and pick him up." I thought that was crazy, and knew better than to pick up a stranger on the highway. The voice came again-"stop and pick him up." I kept thinking about all the reasons why I shouldn't do it. I passed the guy. The voice again told me "it's not too late, go back and pick him up." So, against my better judgement, I went back and got him. The cab of my truck was full, so I made him get in back. As we took off, I had the idea to offer him something to eat ( I had just picked up a couple of burgers) he said yes, and gobbled them down like he hadn't eaten for days. I stopped at a gas station where I had to turn off of the route he was on, to let him out, and offered to buy him a soda. He took the soda and started walking again. When I got to where I was going- my favorite quiet reading/prayer/meditation place, I prayed, and asked God if I would ever be able to see an angel for myself. The answer I recieved shocked me- it came to my mind that the hitch-hiker was an angel, and meeting him was something of a test, to see if I had enough faith to follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit, and to see if I would do the Christ-like thing and feed this stranger. I cried, I was so glad that I did what God wanted me to do, and felt very blessed and humbled to have such an experience.

I believe with all my heart that demons and Angels exists in todays world...remember they can take any form...I believe my sister ran into and met an Angel infact...Her car had broken down and she and my bro were walking to a store to meet my uncle...my bro was way in front of her when a lady stopped her car and asked my sis if she wanted a ride...my sister took the ladies offer and on the way to the store the lady told my sister that she saw a man following her and she had a bad feeling about it...my sister was freaked out and didnt really know what to think...when they got to the store my sister got out of the car and thanked the lady and shut the car door...my sister said she turned her head away for a second and when she looked back the lady had already gone (like within a snap of a finger)....My sister later explained that she would have never gotten in that womans car but she just had a gut feeling that was pulling inward...We all believe that an Angel saved her that day.

25 years ago I had appendicitis which turned into peritinits. I had been sick for 2 weeks with this illness that most people don't survive in days. The doctor told my dad that there is no medical reason for me to be alive. Despite all he did, this man of science was dumbstruck after removing 1 1/2 cups of puss from my 5 year old little body. He said God kept my heart beating and I had a guardian angel.

Yes they are, just about 90% of people don't want to believe. But, in all reality, since in the Bible earth is referred to as Hell, demons walk all over this earth. Everyone has a at least one angel that protects them, so the angels and the demons get into fights, just feet from human beings.
I can feel their presence, both the angels and the demons, as I'm typing this up, there is an angel to the right of me and a demon at the other end of the room. Usually, the demons that have been watching me have been in my room, at night... no that's creepy...

Demons and Angels existed well before Adam and Eve were created. I have be guarded by Angels on many occasions and I have been attacked by demons because of my Belief of Jesus and God.
I have walked between two Angels while out walking and talking to God.
I can sense when Angels are near me and through my beliefs I can cast the demons out of my house and keep them out.
The nice thing is all Christians have power over demons and they even have power over Lucifer himself.

Yes, I've seen people manifesting demons, because they didn't like the atmosphere of worship and biblical truth that was spoken and sung during some church meetings. Demons are so ugly, but thanks to Jesus blood I don't fear them any more. I've never seen any angels yet, but people I know have seen some.
My conclusion is that both exist and in crucial moments of your life there might be a spiritual battle, where some of both groups might become visible, for example, when one wants to be baptized.

Yes, good angels are ministering spirits of God, and demons are unfamiliar spirits that make up Satan's army. Satan can't be every place at once like God; so, he uses the demons to go and do his work . we all have personal experiences with them both and hardly ever know it. I have twice within the last year.

Yes, there are supernatural beings. Angels and demons.
Stay away you don't want to open the door to the demonic.
Occult stuff, fortune tellers etc. Jesus Christ created all the
angels but Satan chose to rebel against God. They're real.
Put your faith in Christ and you can't be demon possessed.
You will have the Holy Spirit in you and demons are afraid of
Jesus Christ and people who represent HIM.
