I personally have never experienced such phenomenon; although I may have convined myself that I saw or heard something when I was a teenager with a ouija board and an overactive imagination.As I've mentioned in a previous post in another thread somewhere the supernatural is a meaningless word primarily because there's never been a universal definition for 'natural', adding the prefix "super" to it is therefore unnecessary.
I believe in ghosts, vampires and werewolves as concepts. Do I think they actually exist in reality objectively? Of course not, they are products of fiction.

At least as close to practical knowledge, meaningful knowledge is concerned there is no demonstrably real God-like being/entity proven to exist, and the Biblical God concept we can refute outright as a non-answer for natural phenomena and existence of the universe because it’s riddled from head to toe with logical impossibilities and contradictions.
I don't have anymore time to spend with you.
There's a lack of evidence for supernatural entities therefore we're left with no reason to believe there’s any such thing. As agnostic free-thinkers who care about epistemology the only thing that will change our positions on this is evidence and sound reasoning, both of which you pitifully lack.

God Bless you i hope i have represented my Savior well, and if i haven's i would ask for your forgiveness.Awww, is that the burn of cognitive dissonance we're feeling today?
