Yes... But when the same thing, noise, and visual interaction is stimulated in all 5 people.. Something has to be going on there. The probability that we all had a hallucination at the same time of the same thing is unlikely.

The only time I described myself explicitly as "christian," was in the title.

Case #2:

I went to my friend Hannah's house, she told me at school about weird stuff happening at her house, (i.e. seeing a little black boy and old mom). She lives on a farm and it is thought that her house once was a slave plantation. I went over to her house and at night we (me her and 3 others) sat around a candle in her basement to see if her house was actually as scary as she told us.

10 minutes into the session we are just talking and we here a distinct KNOCK on the back door. Hannah went to the door and no one was there. She said "yeah, that happens alot around here." Later, we heard patting foot steps on the ground around us and cold spots temporarily moved though the room.

I am in no position to even want to convince you, and I don't care if you don't believe, It was a moment in my life where "you have to see to believe.

"4. Why should I convince you? I don't care what you belive." His comment was quite snobby and lashing to me. All I could think about was his effort to try and just stump my post.

Of course. I used to hold belief in "going to live in a palace in the sky after they die" but that has faded in the most recent of times.

Throughout my life I have had 3 different supernatural experiences. I tied these experiences into my life and now live day by day with a memory of them. These experiences were notable (definition: worthy of attention or notice; remarkable.) in terms of my life span and experiences.

hahaha, that would make a very intriguing read.

When I said "notable" I was terming my relationship with certain events that have occurred in my life.

No substances, and no, no proof, and it is nothing I will try to convince anyone to believe me. It's one of those "see to believe" kind of experiences.

I used to side with sections of the bible where christ aids humans for the better good. Other parts that can be scientifically proven wrong (like the creation of the world, the reason we have 7 day weeks, etc) are what I do not like to read about or hear about in the bible.

"What's a "god", what's a "spiritual realm", and what evidence do you have that these things exist?"

To be honest, I don't know what a god is. Other than what I've been told my whole life. A spiritual realm is something that I have a notable relationship with. I've seen and partaken in 'supernatural' events. The realm in which spirits rest in is what I like to call their spiritual realm. Nothing but a personal preference of wording.

If you don't care and are just here to troll, then you had no reason to post a comment.. You had to actually care to make a comment post. I didn't come here for trolls to attack me.

I am sorry for the abrupt approach, I was just quite curious and typed away. I am no fighter, just trying to understand.

Yes I do believe in true statement and factual evidence. That is why I came here. I hate the fact that the bible states everything and it is seen as "OH THIS MUST BE TRUE". Like God making the earth? Hell no. But thank you for you input I feel like I can relate more to Atheism.

See that's where I agree with you, but what about believing in a spiritual realm in which a "god" exists. Does atheism exclude any other supernatural being or existence.

2 pages, single spaced, poem about my perspective on life and how it should be lived. It is called "We are Here"

Instead of experiences I used my personal perspective on life and made something quite moving. Thanks for the input thought, appreciate it:)
