Whenever someone asks if atheists believe in the paranormal, everyone seems to get angered by it. The reason why people ask is because paranormal stuff, most of the time, deals with things that sorta involve God. Here let me show ya:
Vampires - Undead creatures who have no souls. But it's not just them being soulless. They're described as having the absence of a soul. As in they have no soul whereas a human does. In other words to believe in a vampire is to believe that humans have souls. I'm of course talking about real vampires and not goth kids who drink each other's blood for fun. Also holy water and the cross hurts them so c'mon.
Ghost - This is short and simple. A ghost or spirit or apparition is the very definition of a soul. Evil spirits are even forced away by a priest using holy incantations and stuff.
Witch - Their witchcraft is magic and how many times have we heard our fellow atheists call God a "magically" being like Santa and the Easter Bunny?
Demons - Satans minions. Unless atheism is a form of satanism.
Zombies - NOT the kind caused by viruses (which are just sick people). I'm talking about the kind brought back by voo doo or black magic.
But like I said it somehow angers people so I'm asking that you please don't view this as an attack or something. I just want to get to the bottom line.
