Skeptics might be jumping to conclusions
#58
RE: Skeptics might be jumping to conclusions
I've not heard a scientific definition of what "paranormal" is. It seems to amount to the unexplained. And if that's all it is, there's no problem. I don't expect everything that happens to be explainable. But instead, such reports almost always seem to have an explanation tagged along with them as to precisely what happened, how, and why.

I don't know what consequence any of it is supposed to be. If it only occurs within anecdotal confines and videos/photos, it can't be properly investigated, and it's clearly not having much practical impact.

Personally, I'm always open to evidence of anything. My reaction depends on the strength of the evidence.
