Question Mark Curiously inquisitive

Im not really sure if i believe in the paranormal.
I mean we have heard all these stories but have no actual evidence.
Its all well and dandy that everyone has these stories as they do claim to have seen or have been involved in the paranormal.
But how do we know and how can we know if this is actually true facts?
Im not callinf everyone liars becuase nobody is im just saying that nobody can really prove this can they.
If you do know some evidence please tell me.

Re: Curiously inquisitive

Paranormal activity is called such because it is just that: Paranormal. Outside of normality, what perceives normality, and what measures normality. Thus, out of the reach of science. Therefore, paranormal activity will never be proved by using science. The only justification for the paranormal is empirical experiences, and even then the number is sporadic. As well, you have the sheer and utter liars thrown in who create unjustified claims.

As such, any replies that people will make in this thread pertaining to their profession of evidence will only be represented in an empirical manifestation, something which you could merely speculate upon.

Re: Curiously inquisitive

Of course. It's another aspect of existence in which we can make unproven claims and acts of faith, for there is nobody to contradict us. We then incorporate these unproven assumptions into fact and pretend that nothing ever happened.

While I'm certain aspects of the paranormal do exist, I do not worry myself with trying to find out if they really are true or false. Still, it is interesting to hear about the paranormal, as you said.

Re: Curiously inquisitive

I hear many different things about paranormal activity, some interesting and some just plain stupid, so it does interest me to hear other peoples opinions about this sort of thing
thankyou very much for helping me to understand this,
i hear about how shivers mean people walking on your grave and deja-vu about past lives, i have never been sure about these things and it is very interesting about other peoples views
Thanks again

Re: Curiously inquisitive

People will make the most foolish explanation if they can get away with it. While reincarnation and deja-vu (to an extent, since pretty much everybody has experienced deja-vu) are nothing more then acts of faith, it feels nice to be able to apply the unknowable to make it knowable. It's ironic, really. The combination of two unknowable things to justify something as being known. It's akin to two wrongs making a right, in my opinion. But, that's a rant for another time.

Regardless, you're welcome.
