If ghosts were real, that would mean they are a natural thing, not a supernatural thing.
So the supernatural part wouldn't exist ether way o.0

I believe in supernatural

I believe in supernatural

Which is pretty much the same as saying you believe in nothing, as there is nothing that can ever be classified as super natural o.0

I believe in the supernatural. And correct me if i am wrong but i think that supernatural things are infact a natural thing. The word does exist of the two words
super and natural, with super in my opinion meaning that its not above nature itsself but above the nature that we has humans can see...

i dont know if this makes sense.. but yeh ..

I would say that is it possible for the supernatural to exist since there are too many unexplainable things in the universe that was can't explain as yet with our ways of understanding.

theres plenty of nature we cant understand, putting them down as super natural and giving up the search for this understandings only gonna get you to another dark age o.0

Mentor? The smartest scientist with the worst spelling? You ARE proof of the supernatural.

Sorry to say, a scientist isn't simply defined as someone who isn't a moron, else i think you'd be one of the few unqualified people on this board

I'm applying some simple logic, much like you would find used in the average Sats test aimed at primary school kids. Maybe one day, with alot of work, you too will be able to understand elementary school level logic... at least, it isn't impossible.

Supernatural = Something that doesn't occur natural.
Natural = something that takes place in nature
nature = all existence

Hence to classify as not natural, and thus supernatural, there's a requirement for the thing in question to not exist. The result is that its pretty simple to see, supernatural is a contradictory and failed concept.

Your definitions are a bit off.

- Nature isn't all of existence, but what occurs or has come into existence naturally without superior interference (e.g. manmade objects are not naturally made objects, their components perhaps, but not the object itself. These objects would be classed as nature and natural in your definitions.
- Natural is not strictly what occurs in nature, but what occurs or has come into existence naturally, as said above.
- Your definition of supernatural more closely matches unnatural definitions; supernatural is the addition of an unknown or abnormal 'believed' to be superior interference.

* Wasn't sure if you were critiquing my post or using it to state your opinion, but just to say, I didn't envelop everything which is unknown to us, considering of course that there is no proof that our evolution or unexplainable 'nature' has been influenced by unknown interference, therefore it's sceptical to state that unknown areas of nature are supernatural as we don't know if there has been that interference. *
