Does the paranormal actually exist?

Personally I believe it does. Spirits, ghosts, and ufos sometimes can't fully be explained. I think it would be completely ignorant to mankind to be able to rationalize something that obviously can't be explained. I find the Bermuda Triangle incredibly fascinating.

im not really sure. sometimes i think that its all a hoax and i shouldnt be so stupid to think they exist. but, then again, i saw something a long time ago when i was a kid...and i could swear to you it was a ghost, but maybe it was just my imagination playing tricks on me. its a scary thought though because i never want to see anything paranormal ever again..im a sucker for scary movies, but i freak out at night after i watch them because i think that maybe the movie will become a reality.

I've never seen a ghost and I hope I never do. Doesn't mean though I have to see one to THINK they exist. I think there's always a possibility. I don't believe they are what hollywood hypes up though I do enjoy a scary movie every now and then:) You could share your ghost story with us if you want to.

well, i think i was about 8..and i was just waking up. i took the covers off and looked over to my desk. there was a young girl with shoulder-length black hair and black eyes sitting in the chair staring back at me. i freaked out..seriously..and got back under my covers and started crying for about 30 minutes. after a while, i got the courage to try getting out of bed again and this time she wasnt there anymore. my chair was red..and there were no clothes or anything on the chair, so i dont know what it could have been other than a ghost.

Had your family seen her before and was that your last time? I'm not sure as an adult what I would do in that situation so I can't imagine what it would be like for a child. This sounds like it definitely was a ghost or spirit of some kind.

It is not wise to reject the existence of the paranormal just because we can not reduce it to concrete and scientific explanations. There are many things that we cant see but they do exist. And sometimes things the eyes cant see but the mind and the heart do. Yes, I believe in the paranormal. In the midst of overwhelming indications or evidences, It's a lot easier to accept that it does exist than to just simple say it doesn't.Anyway science as we know now has it's own limitations and is still in the process of continuous growth and development expanding it's territories. What was unscientific yesterday becomes unscientific today. Acquisition of knowledge of the truth can either be through the cognitive way or intuitive way and both can arrive at the same truth.

Thanks for the comment and stating my point more eloquently. Scientists to this day are unable to explain completely the paranormal realm. It would be completely ignorant on our part to assume we know and see all.

I don't know if I would want to come into contact with a spirit. I'm quite interested in the supernatural but seeing a ghost would be surreal. It's sad though because they haven't passed on full yet to the other side.

I believe the paranormal does exist because I had an experience with it when I was younger. These are things and events defies explanation no matter how advanced technology has become.

Exactly. Many people in the science field have completely dismissed it because they have no rational explanation for it. There's too much evidence now for them to turn the other way.

I believe that there is life on another planet and that ghosts/spirits (depending upon what you want to call them) do exist. I just don't think that we've discovered ways to interact with them yet.

I think in the future it would be rather interesting to see if we do discover a way to communicate with them. If they are far more advanced than us, they could help us out with so much in our society. Help cure diseases, further technology...
