I have been, from time to time, highly active in paranormal circles.
Science or not, I have found that many in the paranormal community are "religious" in their ghost hunting.
Very much like those involved in aliens and the idea of aliens. It becomes their religion.

The paranormal rarely stands up to scientific scrutiny, but that doesn't define it as a religion. Science wouldn't be something that defined religion anyway.
Most of the paranormal, like religion, doesn't fall under what can be scientifically investigated (if not repeatable or disprovable) often, so doesn't fall under the pervue of science.
Who is "He"?

We must have discovered everything. Now we can stop looking. Millions of humans, throughout all of history, have all been hallucinating. But, that in itself, isn't even outside the bounds of normal and worthy of further research. Is he a neo-con? A One True Faith Scientist from the Church of Anthropology? How enlightening!

The paranormal or supernatural must by definition be outwith the scope of science so it's a factual statement.

there are many religions who have paranormal beliefs
but the paranormal itself is not a religion and should be investigated scientifically
