Do you believe in beings such as aliens, big foot or things like goblins or ghosts?
Given my interest in all things spiritual and paranormal my basic response should be "yes I do believe", in spiritual beings i do, but I have not yet met everything in this universe or other paralells.

As Shakespeare so eloquently wrote: "There are more things in Heaven and Earth, than are dreampt of in your philosophy......" Rather says it all don't you think? LOL So yeah, I believe. Why not? It would be rather arrogant of me, a mere human, to believe that I know more than the Creator of the Universe, and rather boring NOT to believe too! lol

Boy am I dumb today. I missed the word Aliens, too.
I DEFINITELY believe in aliens. There is no way that we are the only life in the universe. We just haven't found it yet, or they have found us and don't want anything to do with us because we are so destructive. I can't blame them.
And for the record, I would love to meet an alien!

I beleive that these things could exist although I cannot say one way or the other because I have not seen any myself. I cannot solely rely on heresay evidence to confirm or deny. I would have to see evidence to be able to say for sure. But I am definitely open to the idea of beings being in existence that not everybody has seen or been able to document and prove as of yet. WE, as humans, are often too egotistical and dismiss things that are difficult to believe, without leaving the door open to new information. One of the downfalls of the human race, unfortunately. I dislike people that have a closed mind. They cannot learn new things and often judge too harshly and too hastily.

I haven't actually watched those shows, although I do enjoy Ghost Whisperer quite a bit. I would like to think that what she does is possible.
I'll check those 2 out.

YOu listed ghosts, goblins and bigfoot and I kinda centred on the bigfoot for some reason. I DO believe in ghosts, don't know yet about goblins. What is a goblin supposed to be?

Being able to experience a thing is a good way to acknowledge its existance. With shows out there like 'Ghost Hunters' and 'Paranormal State' would you consider those shows to be heresay evidence, and therefore not apply as evidence to your beliefs?
I agree 100% that we need to our minds open to the possibilities and not dismiss things so readily.

I'm not sure about goblins as I believe them to be mythical at best. I'm open minded about strange creatures that have been espied but there is also some disbelief due to the fact that they remain hidden so long.
I've also been ambivalent regarding aliens but Stephen Hawking made mention of same the other day saying "aliens should be avoided" which might prove a tad difficult to do.

I just watched his new show last night, one was aliens the other was time travel.
He based that warning on us, the human race, and the terror and trouble we cause ourselves and that any species that are intelligent have also learned to harness the destructive power of technology.

Hey Draeke! I do believe in the paranormal! I do believe that
there are ghosts and goblins or whatever they like to be called!
I would never make fun or count anything out! I have seen enough
and read enough to believe that they definitely do exist in
all forms! Some are nice, some are funny and some are down right
evil! Some just want to play and some just want to wreck havoc!
But, whatever they are here and they are there and I don't
want to mess with them because they are real!
