@zimok and amanda11 -
I'm of the opinion that eventually you'll be able to find a scientific explanation for virtually "everything". In other words I don't believe in the supernatural. What people call supernatural is just an uninformed way of explaining natural laws or processes that have yet been recognized.
Let me give you an example, about 200 years ago, the "best" scientists pretty much only knew of the physical law of gravity.
Now we know about the 4 fundamental forces of nature -
Gravity
Electromagnetism
Strong Force
Weak Force
Years ago when people would say put two pieces of metal together and feel something, they thought it was some kind of ghost or spirit or whatever acting on those objects.....
Now we call that "ghost", "spirit", etc MAGNETISM.
If you read any book on scientific history, you'll find out about hundreds, thousands of "odd" stories like this.
A thousand years ago the shamans would rub sticks together then say a little prayer and POOF fire would appear - all the people thought it was the saying and dancing that did that, now we know the physical laws surrounding thermodynamics....
The gist of what I am saying is to NEVER QUESTION THE VALIDITY OF YOUR OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.
Why because it could actually be the case - if history has anything to say about it - that you just observed some aspect of a very real physical phenomena we don't yet know about.
Remember how back in the day you'd read science fiction novels (well amanda you'd probably skim it given how you always blast me about how long my posts are, lol) and hear about extra dimensions?
Well guess what they call that theory now?
String Theory.
You gotta have an open mind and assume what the bet scientific thinkers in the world do:
"anything is possible...."
