So do you? Post your experiences or feelings on the suject

no

I believe in quantum physics, which is about as close to supernatural as you can get.

Nah. Need moar evidence.

nope, 4 one reason: if it exists, it's "natural." (barring human-made stuff)

paulflexes saidI believe in quantum physics, which is about as close to supernatural as you can get.

This

Not really

I do believe in aliens though. Not UFOs that are busy abducting rednecks. The probability that we are the only planet where intelligent life has evolved is tiny though, there's got to be some out there somewhere.

Yeppp....just spend one night at my grandparents' house and you'll see why haha

notadumbjock saidnope, 4 one reason: if it exists, it's "natural." (barring human-made stuff)

Human-made stuff is made from natural stuff.

^^^ then everything's natural

Supernatural doesn't have to do with what something is made of. It's from the Latin supra naturalis. Above nature. Something supernatural is not subject to the laws of nature. Ghosts defy the laws of physics. Vampires and zombies defy nearly everything we know about biology.

I don't know, what exactly do you mean by super natural

No. Mandrake roots do not scream bloody murder when you yank them outta the ground.

A sad fact indeed.

I have had some pretty interesting experiences and therefore cannot deny it.

Yes, I do.

Yes. Too many people have claims of seeing dead relatives or being privy to certain sights that can't be explained.

Example: My grandmother died in March of 2011. My family is NOT religious. On the other hand, I am...but I digress. Both my dad and my uncle have made claims of seeing their mom (my grandmother) stand before them and smile. My dad said he saw my grandmother (we called her Mimi) peaking over the fence of our backyard and he said she waved and smiled. Then my uncle, just last week, was laying in bed when he said that Mimi appeared at the end of the bed. My uncle said, ''mom, is that you?'' She smiled and said, ''Greg, I'm okay.'' and then vanished.

Nobody in my family is on drugs or alcohol. So yes, I believe in spirits. But then again, I always have anyway.

if that supernatural is about ghost , devil or something like that : NO
If it is about the sixth sense , the ability to see the future , the ability to break a thing without touching it : YES

Nope

I have had some first hand expriences with the supernatural so yes I do. I once saw my elderly neighbor who had passed wondering outside of her house. I was cossing the street and she smiled at me. I smiled back and kept on my way not even realizing. When I did I whirled around and she was gone.

I do, and that's why I'll never watch those exorcist kind of movies ever!
Gore horror fine, but not supernatural horror... well not unless someone sleeps next to me for a couple of weeks haha.

There is a supernatural world out there wheather we believe it or not..!..
Take a good look at my face..(eeew)
My bff said i was bitch slapped by a ghost and never recovered!

Lol this was me after I saw paranormal activity. Desperate for someone to sleep next to me

I don't believe in that stuff but I am open to the possibility and can be converted to a believer if I were to have an experience involving the supernatural I guess

From Allah to Crypto Zoology (and most letters in between), No.

I have experienced supernatural events personally, when I was 10 my grandpa passed away. My grandmother, stricken with grief, moved out of her old house and into an apartment. The new owner of the house was a clairvoyant and claimed to feel the presence of my grandpa (and even that objects would mysteriously move), to which she would delight in passing this information on to our family.
Shortly after (months?) I was taking a shower when i realized I forgot a wash cloth, I got out and made sure the sliding door was shut (as I always did) so water wouldn't splash on the floor. I only took two steps to grab the washcloth, but when I turned around the shower door was completely open, just seconds after I had closed it... My heart leapt out of my chest, was there something supernatural at play...?

I admit that that might not be the most compelling ghost story to tell around a campfire, but I have met folks who have been made believers from less.
For me, it was a very real experience, and you could put me on a polygraph and I would tell you for sure that I remembered closing that door.

But just because I think/know something, doesn't make it true. I could have just blanked that I closed the door and assumed that I did because it was so routine for me to do so that i didn't even give it a second thought, I was running on auto-pilot.

When you experience something you don't quite have an answer for, and combine that with talk about dead relatives and moving objects, your are primed to jump to supernatural conclusions.

I am not a believer, but that doesn't mean that I don't have irrational responses to things;
When I watch a movie, I know it's not real, but I am sill emotionally effected by them anyway.
I'm the first person to look away when a monster jumps into frame, or shed a tear for a characters death.
Even though it is completely irrational, for me it just goes to show the powerful effect of instinctual empathy we humans have developed.

MuchMoreThanMuscle saidI have had some pretty interesting experiences and therefore cannot deny it.

Yes, I do.

Me too. That's why I posted about quantum physics.

Quantum physics predicts the existence of other dimensions, parallel/multiple universes, and a few other mind boggling things. That in itself almost verifies "supernatural" for what we're accustomed to in our tangible daily life.
