Thread: No Evidence of the paranormal?

Just like when sseeing something fly in the air you don't know what it is, is called a UFO (unidentified flying object).

There is no such thing as the supernatural. What we call supernatural are actually just natural events that we do not currently have a sceintific explaination for.

It's probably like saying "theory". Not that it's a theory, just a name we use untill we know more about it and call it what it is.

You don't believe in ghosts, but you believe in angels and demons? Oh, my...

Not exactly, in scientific terms 'theory' is as good as it gets.

I swear half of the people on this forum have never heard of the Theory of Gravitation.

Jesus H. Christ...

When in doubt, use Occam's Razor! Which is more simple a solution: freaky-ass coincidence, video editing combined with people seeking fame and such, or invisible spirits that are tangible only at will? The paranormal is a load of crock. Ditto for demons and angels and such.

You mean Newton's Theory of Universal Gravitation? That doesn't always work, relative gravity has to be used at high speeds or in super-dense materials. And even Relative Gravity doesn't always work

Ghosts don't exists, neither do demons. As a scientist, one must admit that there are things that we don't yet understand, however without evidence, no, there is nothing paranormal.
