In any form or fashion. If you do believe in a supernatural thing(s) what?
Without a doubt, but, it’s complicated. I try not to make assumptions, or get my own personal interpretations of things mixed up with direct experience.
No
I know that we have, throughout history, assigned unknowns as supernatural occurrences.
And I don’t think we know everything yet.
So yes? That doesn’t mean the supernatural things are supernatural., just that they exist, we don’t understand them yet.
I wish it were true, but no, not really.
No. I believe all things have a natural explanation.
I do believe we won’t be able to understand every natural explanation that happens in the universe, though.
You can’t teach a dog quantum physics. I don’t think we are so special that we will be able to understand everything. We may hit a limit where our math (a formal language of reasoning that we have developed) can’t model something or our brains simply refuse to accept its conclusion.
We can operate with irrational numbers but it’s not like our brains can truly comprehend them. Nor does quantum physics really make sense; I mean, mathematically we can reason about it but we can’t comprehend it. The speed of light being a constant and warping time is another example of something we can experimentally verify but can’t logically comprehend.
There’s no reason to believe everything will be understandable. So I’m open to something “unexplainable” happening that seems supernatural. I definitely do believe it’s natural at all times.
And while I’m open to “natural things we cannot comprehend” I simply struggle to believe for a second theres something that exists on another “plane”, which we cannot see signs of, that somehow judges us and takes an interest in our individual lives, as anything but fanciful. If such an entity exists, and it seems to us omnipresent, I doubt it takes any more interest in us than we would an ant in a forest on the other side of the planet.
No
i’ve seen things i cannot give a fully scientific explanation to why they happened, and i believe there are things that are not currently explainable by current science. however i don’t take the explanations currently given by most religious, esoteric and magick groups at face value, and more so in their vision of how a society is to be shaped.
I can understand not being gullible and believing every thing someone reports as paranormal, etc.

I don’t agree that intelligence is a driver as you state at the end. Greed is greed.

If “supernatural things” were to exist, they would be part of nature and therefore natural by definition.
You people are autistic
Your stupidity is supernatural.
Fuck off
No lol. Belief in the supernatural in any form is un-Marxist.
Whether that’s angels and demons and deities, witches and ghosts, or astrology and healing crystals. It is a virtue to have a completely Materialist worldview.
What the hell does Marxism have to do with this?
Now that almost everyone on planet earth has a small camera with them at all times, it would have been really cool to have discovered some supernatural stuff, be it ghosts, Big Foot, Nessie, whatever (and someone still might, who knows?), but instead all we get is police brutality. 🙁
we get is police brutality.
The existence of which is just as controversial as UFO sightings in conservative media.
Probably more so these days with all the lame UFO hype periodically coming from the government.
I believe that people have experiences they can’t explain, and that this happens far more often than most would imagine. Imo a lot of it has to do with how our minds handle probability — we imagine that ‘highly improbable’ things never happen, at least not to us, so when they do, we experience it as ‘supernatural’
No. I believe there are unexplained, and probably unexplainable things, but they all exist as part of the natural universe.
Isaac Newton put it best:
“I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.”
It’s completely stupid, short sighted and ignorant of us to think that we know everything there is know about the universe and natural world. There is still so much more to learn about and understand and probably far more than we can even comprehend.
But we also have to regulate how much we know and don’t know and how we can understand or not understand … because as Richard Feynman put it …
“Keep an open mind … but not so open that your brain falls out”
And honestly a lot less is left unexplained than most people seem to assume. Or maybe just most believers.
