How to select which supernatural to believe?
RE: How to select which supernatural to believe?
(July 17, 2022 at 4:37 pm)Fake Messiah Wrote: To believe in ANYTHING supernatural one may as well believe in EVERYTHING supernatural; like witches, goblins demons, gods, talking trees, vampires and dragons to name a few. Why be selective? When no evidence exists for any of them, why dismiss any and not all?

Good point.  I discard the supernatural, in all its various claims, as arbitrary.  But we know why people believe in it.  It's because they aren't satisfied with reality so they imagine another reality that's more to their liking and pretend that one day they'll go there and it will be a combination of the candy garden from Willy Wonka and star trek where you can have anything at the push of a button.  Tea, Earl Grey, hot.
