    If you believe in reincarnation...

    A taboo subject in the Christian religion, but it is fact and it is a part of the Christian. I met my former wives, today, at the ages of 2 and 5 years of age. I am a witness, still learning.

    Real or not?

    I appreciate that you are open-minded and willing to learn about the paranormal. I think it's okay for someone to say, "I honestly don't know," if they've never had any experience with it, rather than stating unequivocally that the paranormal isn't real because they've never had a personal...

    Why believe the promises about the next life?

    ...could include a NDE, an OBE, or a personal encounter with a spirit(s) that they cannot rationally explain or logically debunk. As a veteran paranormal investigator, I often refer to this as "seeing is believing," because I've witnessed it happen numerous times with skeptics over the last 16...

    When the Student is Ready the Teacher Will Appear

    ...is a TRUE story of how a teacher miraculously appeared to a ready student (me): A few decades back now I had an intense interest in the paranormal but very little spiritual understanding from the eastern (India) spiritual traditions. Hinduism was nothing more than an odd ball of confusion...

    Real or not?

    ...spirits aren't real and are only figments of their imagination. However, the negative stigma associated with believing in ghosts and the paranormal in general has faded significantly over the last two decades or so (see the articles linked below). The articles, in my opinion, illustrate that...

    Real or not?

    Maybe you will someday. I firmly believe that "seeing is believing," as I've witnessed with many skeptics of the paranormal for nearly seventeen years. My husband felt the same way prior to his personal encounters with spirits. He was scared the first couple of times he participated in my...

    What convinced you that Evolution is the truth?

    ...world wide. Evolution deniers are recognised as a lost cause by a vast majority of scientists and academics, and regarded as scientifically illiterate. Much in the same way as those believing in the transmutation of base metal into gold and those who believe in magic or alchemy or the...

    Why don’t you believe in God?

    It is important to remember what you know about how the mind works and contrast that with what scientists know. People with expertise in cognitive science or neuroscience know a lot more about what is "unknown" in their field than you do. Arguments from ignorance are popular among believers...

    Why don’t you believe in God?

    ...looked? ;) I will tell you that I did not have to look very far. I have believed that for a long time but more recently I have has some paranormal experiences that corroborated by beliefs. I have to admit it was pretty eerie. There are a handful of people in this forum who know what I am...

    Theistic evolution as part of a possible simulation with a non-obvious intelligent force

    No that is the other Newtonian extreme. A Naturally deterministic universe is not "clock-work." The variations of cause and effect event outcomes are natural feature of our universe are predictable and not random, and are not clockwork rigid mechanically. Problem here of vagueness, NO...

    Theistic evolution as part of a possible simulation with a non-obvious intelligent force

    ...world. Well I am saying that it has no hard evidence - that's why I call it "non-obvious". "......I think ALL evidence of God and the paranormal can be explained by skeptics as coincidence, delusion, hallucinations, or fraud" Very predictable implies it is 100% predictable. About dice -...

    So what is everyone's thoughts on this documentary on evolution ?

    You might want to consider 3 things: 1. what the "U" in "UFO" stands for 2. what the argument from ignorance is 3. why sightings of UFO's claimed to be "alien spacecraft" isn't higher, and in fact is much lower, among both professional as well as amateur astronomers as opposed to the general...

    So what is everyone's thoughts on this documentary on evolution ?

    ...is life "out there" ... granted, some experiences (to me) make no sense and are either the product of endogenous DMT during sleep, or, the paranormal. Whatever the case, there's a list of definitive experiences that are (like mine above) NOT "imagination." Add to this the idea of the...

    Spirit Orbs Are Real and This Video Proves It

    ...is very interesting. No, I don't know who could authenticate the video for you. Yes, I've included a skeptical scientist in one of my paranormal investigations. I've also had college professors and other skeptics participate in my investigations; most of them were religious, but some were...

    Why don’t you believe in God?

    Thank you for sharing. It must be something else, talking to, feeling and seeing ghosts.

    Why don’t you believe in God?

    ...for me if I could conclusively document the existence of deities like I can with human spirits and non-human entities as a veteran paranormal researcher and investigator, or if I could sense, see, hear, and directly communicate with any kind of deity like I can with human spirits and...

    What do you think of Purgatory?

    Others have told me that my belief in the paranormal (e.g., spirits and hauntings) is ridiculous, but I don't listen to them because I respect that they believe differently than I do. I also know that their disbelief has no bearing on what I believe, so it makes no difference to me whether they...

    Other than your religious teaching...

    ...studied, and the person was "proven" to have been flat-line brain dead make a good start for me. Then, the "personal" study I did of the paranormal subject showed it too exists. As much as I can say is that there's SOMETHING out there, but it's the defining explanational data that needs...

    If you believe in reincarnation...

    ...If reincarnation was correct, it would have been talked about when writing began ... but ... nothing. So, what about alleged memories of past lives? This could be anything from endogenous DMT to paranormal intrusions. There IS a "spiritual" world ... and just TONS of attempted "explanations."

    Spirit Orbs Are Real and This Video Proves It

    ...So the footage I presented could not be fake in that regard. The footage looks fluent, natural and probably authentic. Do you know anyone who could authenticate it? And have you ever thought about bringing a scientist with you on a paranormal investigation just to see what he/she says about it?
