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?

I believe there are lots of naturally super things

I wish it were true, but no, not really.

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 move things with the Power of My Mind

No

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.

If “supernatural things” were to exist, they would be part of nature and therefore natural by definition.

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 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’

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. 🙁

Sometimes, (more often lately) I wish I did believe in that stuff or that they did exist because it would make me feel a whole lot better about the way the world is now, vs just greedy and shitty people doing greedy and selfish or malicious things to others for greedy, selfish, and malicious reasons. The existence of a physical manifestation of evil and it’s ability to influence others would at least make the world make more sense sometimes. I want there to be more good in the world and it feels rotten to think that the reason there isn’t there are just shitty people manipulating us or harming us and getting away with it vs some force of nature.

But, I am sadly not that person, I don’t believe in that stuff. I am open to it should it be presented to me but for now, I have no evidence of it.

There are two unexplained phenomena that I currently believe in (but either could change at any time - by being explained or by being shown not to exist.)
They are dark matter and dark energy.

But ghosts and stuff? Certainly not.

What do you mean by supernatural?

It means ‘beyond the natural world’, I think, but what does ‘natural’ mean? That is exists without humans? That it’s good for the planet? That it’s something theoretically knowable by empirical means? That’s it’s something knowable by logical/rational means?

I believe that I as a conscious experience exist. I don’t believe anything else with certainty, although I believe a great many things conditional on the empirical (‘natural’?) world being assumed to be true.

No.
