I understand that and can agree. Too many people making just about anything up for a buck does not help the studies in this field. I am sorry if I came down a little iron fisted or whatever. I just think paranormal stuff definitely has a place in our culture for study and has a long way to go before it can be discounted from an actual physical, real, phenomenon.
When I look at paranormal theories and paranormal events, myself personally I have no doubt that some of these things exist. Being able to prove it 100% is tough, but not impossible I think.
For example, sometimes I feel like someone is looking at me. I will turn and look and see someone is looking at me. There was another time that I "knew" I had to go outside at a certain house. I went outside instantly and was able to stop a bad fight that was happening.
How can I prove that there is some scientific explanation for this? That is though, it is really hard to do something like that. I don't think that takes away from the fact that it happened though.

From what little I know from reading and listening to the experiences of others who claim a particular sensitivity it is either you have the gift or you do not. In some cases you may have a gift but be unaware of it or try to deny it. At some point it will manifest itself in your behavior if you do not control or learn of it. As for me I do not think I have any kind of paranormal anything to me other than stress.
I sit and watch shows about paranormal activity and I do not see anything. I guess I am not very sensitive to the paranormal. I do believe in ghosts and the paranormal and I approach many things with a very open mind. I guess it is in my nature to not see any paranormal activity.
I'm not sure how I feel about this, I cant recall any real paranormal things happening.
At times yes you do get a gut feeling about things but is this as you have picked up on things you don't realise, noises etc. That your brain processes then you act on feeling.
Until I have had things happen in my life that prove it I will sceptical on the world of paranormal.
