Actually, we seem to be hard wire by evolution for that but most adults will outgrow it.

A little long but if the first few minutes do not catch your attention then the rest will not interest you.

Most interesting and fascinating opinion. Even with animation.

   

Straight from the horse's mouth......



Or just another tidbit from our newest......

   

Closer to this, I think.

   

Truly scientific.

Must be from that UBC study

   

   

Dude, this is where your multi-thread/post rant falls apart completely. Not that I believe in the last 3 on Raydan's list but I have had enough experiences to know there is a helluva lot more out there going on than science and analytic thinking can explain. Ghosts? You bet your ass they're real, my last house had 'em. So did the old Whitby Psych Hospital before they finally tore it down. There's no shortage of ghosts in the castles and on the ancient battlefields of Great Britain either.

In another area of the supernatural, myself and a half dozen other witnesses watched one of our friends literally command the elements on two spearate occasions, once with air and again with water. This was no sleight of hand crap either, it was as real as it gets.

Using Eastern meditation techniques, I have managed on occasion to exit my physical body and let my ethereal self roam for a bit. And no, it had nothing to do with drugs as drugs are highly detrimental to the process and extremely dangerous if one succeeds in leaving their physical self.

Let me be frank here, this is stuff I KNOW is real! This is stuff I personally experienced with others at the same time, except the out of body stuff. The out of body I experiences I know are also real because they are repeatable.

IS that proof there is a God? Nope, but it does prove (to me anyway) that things exist that are way beyond the [current] grasp of science, leaving room for a real possibility this might not all be just a real fortunate accident.

Now, let's not forget that religion and belief are NOT the same thing.
One can follow a religion without believing in God(s).
Buddhism and Taoism are just two examples where the followers are generally considered to be atheist or agnostic.
Likewise one can easily accept there is a God without getting bogged down in the dogma of religion.

   

jainism

   

I always wondered why are most of those ghosts in English castles.

And Ebenezer Scrooge house of course.

   

What the fuck have you been talking about these last few days. If you are trying to troll, you are failing horribly at it.

   

Which part of the ghosts you didn't understand?

Do you feel discriminated against?

   

Now we can get back to the scientific belief.

Why did the scientists believe coelacanth was extinct 60 million years? That is until they found it quite fresh on fish markets on some Indian Ocean islands.

   

...at which point scietnists changed their belief to reflect the oberservation--a critical differntiation between faith in religious texts and faith in science.

   

Zip, treating it like people only makes it think it's people.
