The Unexplained Mysteries

I didnt mean to put anyones noses out of joint by my last comment but it seems that i have done and for that im truly very sorry that woz not my intention.
However, saying that, I do believe that im more of a believer coz i am more ready to believe in things that exist outside of our conciousness.
There is more to this life than merely seeing, smelling, etc. and in that case i believe in wot Auntie_Silver_Wycc says xx

Kudos to you on that answer, I have to agree with you on that.

I beleive that it is nesscary to be both skeptic and beleiver and I think it is unfair to give such a harsh critique of skeptics without pointing out any of the flaws that can come to beleives as well.

I examine all of my experinces that I have and try to find a rational explaination before I autamaticly accept that it is of the supernatural, because I do not like to fool myself or be false to myself.

As well, when it comes to other people recounting thier own experinces, I accept the possiblity of truth but I am not going to autmaticaly just take them for face vaule without accpeting the possiblity that there may be another explaination as well as the one they present.

I think that those that take everything for face vaule and beleive too readily anything and everything and do not try and evaulature or accept the possiblity that there just may be a normal explination or rationalization for somethings, only help the skeptics make thier case by not using any sense of reason.

I think an important question to ask oneself is, are they truly beliving something, or merely wanting to beleive it.

So what would you say,
You are a skeptic or a believer.
