Do you have any paranormal experineces?

[adey67]

My mother told me that she was driving down a street when her passenger said, "Stop". They went to the house and they stopped and knocked on the door. A woman answered and said to my moms friend, "you're are the Ghost!" She said, "I know, but I'm just sleeping". She was OBE put had no control. She just kept haunting that very large house when she slept and didn't know why! So then, Ghosts are just people sleeping, OBE, and have no knowledge that they are haunting! I've experienced this as a haunter before and can tell you hilarious stories but, I'm confused without answers. But I'm close, really, really close!

So, your mother was the one having the OBE?

If this were true then every ghost would be dressed in modern clothing/nightwear, you wouldn't see any ghosts dressed in civil war era clothing or any other past era for that matter. I'm afraid your mothers anecdotal account of a ghostly OBE encounter is just like any other regular paranormal claim its big on story but short/non existent on evidence. 

While I encourage everyone to think critically and evaluate claims of paranormal activity for themselves, my intention in creating this thread was not necessarily to debunk the experiences of others. I simply wanted to see what types of paranormal experiences atheists/agnostics have either had or know about that maybe lack some sort of natural explanation. Surely, all paranormal experiences have some sort of natural explanations and many of them can be easily debunked. This was more meant to explore those instances where otherwise skeptical individuals were left stumped by specific events that happened in their lives.

Fair enough although most sensible skeptics will say that while they have no explanation that's a far cry from saying psychic phenomena is genuine cos we can debunk till the cows come home and I suspect will always be able too. Just because we do not know how a trick is performed doesn't mean it isn't a trick and we should never be afraid of saying so because it helps reduce people being conned, I never pass up an opportunity to debunk for that very reason

Dude, I just replied to a post anecdotal or not. Do you understand preternatural? Or, do you believe in the supernatural? Do you believe in theology? Do you believe in science? All belief systems are LAME! I TRUST in God and nature and can prove nature exists!

Absolutely all of that is basically crap designed to obfuscate and win on an argument I've heard of everything but preternatural is to my mind no different to supernatural its a made up word probably to prop up a made up argument. I understand what theology means and I don't believe in any of it. You don't need to prove nature exists everything around us is testament to this. If ALL belief systems are lame yours is too because you have one regardless of what you think and say. Basically your full of pooh.
