Through study and debate I have concluded that magic, ghosts and demons are quite real. And by magic I don't mean throwing fire balls and shit like that, magic is far less tangible than that. But that does not mean it is not tangible.
P.S. I will report any trolls or people that post just to be a smart ass. If your post doesn't have any relevance to the conversation don't post it, like "I don't believe in magic, and any one that does is a idiot". Also the poll is broke.

Basically, the only paranormal shit I believe in is spirits/ghosts, because they've been proven to exist, as there have been a lot people who have encountered spirits, and have caught them on video footage, pictures end EVP's ( electronic voice phenomena ).

that is what you don't mean by magic but what DO you mean by magic? and does "fey" mean being able to predict the future or just being able to predict death? and do poltergeists count as paranormal stuff?

No one has ever proven ghosts to exist. The photos of them are unconvincing and easily explained.

I don't really believe in anything paranormal. No one has any good evidence for it.
On a side note, what is fey? I've never heard of it before.

Fey refers to earthly nature spirits. But even I haven't seen or herd anything to really support there existence.

Actually there has been no scientific proof showing that ghosts or any other paranormal phenomena are real. There are more facts disproving the paranormal than supporting it.
Assuming you're referring to magic as tarot card reading, palm reading, etc.. No, those are merely marketing scams. Your brain makes subconscious connections when you encounter a broad topic - which is how all mind reading sessions start.
What paranormal entities do i believe in? None.

I really don't believe in magical things... The thing that I believe in the most in that list is a demon... even though I laugh my ass off during the exorcist and paranormal activity

I deny the existence of anything existing beyond the natural world. Nothing paranormal.

Same here - no paranormal things exist (IMHO). No proof.

I believe in TINA Fey. *shrug*
I wouldn't say that I believe in anything supernatural. It fascinates me and gets my imagination running, but I don't believe it.

Think of the fact that the world is round, today not a big deal. But back in the day, no one would have believed you. I think it will be the same with magic.

maybe ghosts, no magic or anything though
no one has yet to win a challenge set by a person who will award $1000000 to whoever proves that they have magic/psychic powers

I'd really love it if any if that stuff existed in some ways, but I'm agnostic about anything supernatural, and highly skeptical about the whole field due to the number of fraudulent claims and charlatans.
Magic is a possible exception - the word magic has been described as 'a noise symbol for things we don't understand' by authors such as Robert Heinlein, or "one man's magic is another man's engineering." In that sense, advanced technology is indistinguishable to the inexperienced observer from magic.

When ever scientists try to disprove that magic is really or do test on a "mage" they always pick the most phony guy out there.

Do you have verifiable proof of the paranormal? Proof that can't be explained in any other way?

Yes
Do you have verifiable proof of the paranormal?
No
A friend of a friend showed me a "Magic trick". How he did it, the best answer is, is magic. It is not really verifiable, wich is why I said no. And there are other ways to explain science, you can explain anything in another way. So with in reason the best answer is magic.

I disagree. I don't believe in anything paranormal. But saying everyone who does is an idiot is unnecessary, and just wrong. Many people just haven't been exposed to science enough to know that science can explain supposed paranormal phenomena. Others have been raised by parents who heavily emphasize it. I think people who believe in the paranormal are wrong, but not idiots.

I dont believe in any of it. I used to believe in ghosts and demons whole heartedly but just realized they werent real because Ive tried ouija boards and ive tried summoning demons and the devil but nothing ever happens....ever. Ive been trying for like 2 years, dont tell me that Im crazy for trying that stuff. I know what can happen....and nothing has. So ive given up hope in ghosts and demons and satan, and God kinda too. Thats my stance on this topic.

I belive in both ghosts and magic. and yeah Magic isn't very tangible at all.
It's been several years since I last googled something about magic so I don't really remember at what point it become fantasy.

I believe in ghosts and demons...maybe fey. Anyway I would like to believe magic exists and I would be ecstatic if I found out it was but I haven't found anything to support it but the dream is alive

I believe in one Ghost, and He isn't very big on hauntings.
When ever scientists try to disprove that magic is really or do test on a "mage" they always pick the most phony guy out there.
There exists a standing offer of $1 million to anyone who can demonstrate paranormal abilities in a scientifically controlled setting.

you cant see something thats not there
if you experience one of these things then it exists in some form
you may misunderstand what it is
but it is no doubt there in some manner
