In any form or fashion. If you do believe in a supernatural thing(s) what?
Every time I’m in a creepy place in the dark, I suddenly believe in the supernatural; other than that, no.
The god of the gap? No. I believe in proof and evidence, and once you have that it’s not supernatural anymore. Isn’t the real world interesting enough?
Well, pretty much no. It’s a weakness that we wish for something conveniently supernatural to distract us from the cold, uncaring truth of the universe.
It is up to us to fill it with light.
every human technology is “super-natural” because it’s not natural
Use a dictionary. It’s not supernatural.
From the dictionary
Supernatural: departing from what is usual or normal especially so as to appear to transcend the laws of nature.

Plenty of technology has done this. Words have more than one meaning. Maybe take your own advice before ignorantly attacking someone.
Imagine reading the definition and still thinking technology classifies as supernatural
words mean what we make them mean. use your imagination.
For most definitions of supernatural, no.
I believe in unidentified areal phenomena, not that it’s ETIs or aliens, but that something’s up there doing its thing.
I believe in ball lightning even though we don’t have a model of electrodynamics that explains it.
There’s some weird shit out there, Horatio, that isn’t explained in our philosophy. I’m sure we don’t have all the answers. I just am okay with knowing we don’t know what those answers are.
As for ghosts, spirits, afterlife, etc. There’s strong evidence those things do not exist, just in the stark silence where there should be noise.
I do pretend that treating my cat well and wearing cat themed tees and keeping cat kitch does please the cat gods. 🐱👤
No
If “supernatural things” were to exist, they would be part of nature and therefore natural by definition.

Your stupidity is supernatural.
Congratulations, you proved everyone in this thread wrong.
Fuck off
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.
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 believe there are lots of naturally super things
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.
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.

Is it your body?
Usually. I will admit it is usually body or air. Sometimes though
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.
