I say take everything with a grain of salt. Have a little bit of belief in the crazy paranormal things. Even with religion. Religion shouldn't be taken into literal meaning, but more so as a metaphorical guideline on what's right and wrong and then from your own opinion on what you think is best
My religion is to take all the fun and good things of every religion, and put it into one. That way you win and everyone gets pancakes.
As for the spooky stuff in this world, there is a lot of evidence to prove it, but equally so to disprove it. Science is definitely a good way to go for understanding the principles of things. But when you have your first paranormal experience, you tend to open up a bit. I've had days where I've wanted to see a UFO or be abducted or to desperately see something crazy like a ghost. But I've also had days where I've though "if any of those things were to happen, deep down, I really wouldn't handle it to well."
As shit and anti climactic as this is going to sound, My first and only paranormal experience I've had is when my great grandmother passed away and I couldn't attend her funeral. That night I was with my girlfriend at a restaurant and (in Greek Orthodox tradition of the supernatural old lady wives tale story crap, it's apparently a good sign if this happens) my glass of water slid from one end of the table to the other without any source of force. The table was lop sided ever so slightly but fixed into the ground. This would make sense in a logical way, but it was sliding the wrong direction, up the incline of the table. It wasn't filled with ice, it was just luke warm tap water. It moved a good 30cm and the waitress even asked me how I did that. My girlfriend and I were just aw struck and how that should have not physically happened. But with that being said, I know what I saw, and tried my very best to disprove it and convince others. But once you see it, you can't help but believe the magic.
Just my 2 Fenugian wooden dollars.
