But the information available is wide and varied. Most of it that critically explores various phenomena remains open to possibilities and is clear that whilst for example ghosts cannot be proved, they cannot be disproved either, and there are many events that as yet cannot be satisfactorily explained.
In spiritual practices it’s very common to experience things which I assume some would say were paranormal, but in those circles it’s very normal, so much that most have had similar experiences, so as much as I could read sceptical books that would just say “no, don’t be silly”, because of very real experiences I have had that would feel as wrong to me as you would presumably feel reading a book saying “look at all this woooo, it’s all real”.
Some humans are more open to there being more to the world than we know. Some seem very closed off to that idea. It’s a pity that those closed off seem offended that some of us are happy to be open to it, are not being taken advantage of it, and have some quite magical experiences.
I believe there are studies that show that people who have faith in something (in my case it would be something spiritual but not necessarily religious) tend to be happier than those who don’t. I’m very happy with my beliefs, and would rather not be talked down to by those who don’t share them.
There’s a book called Why Woowoo Works which goes into all sorts of interesting topics and sharing research papers of evidence that these things work, even when it’s not clear why they work. It says there is evidence that telepathy is real, and goes so far as to say that those ignoring the evidence (of which there is lots) is pseudoscience because they’re not believing the recorded evidence. Materialism in science has closed off so many avenues of research. It now sits comfortably providing evidence to the biggest purse-holders.
