    Can someone help please

    I'm not a psychologist, so please examine and analyze what I say. This is a severe situation. I would say, though, that the apparent paranormal activity is nothing more than a mental phenomenon based on your epilepsy, and not anything paranormal. Has anyone else every experienced anything...

    Sam Harris' version of the Lewis Trilemma

    Most of us here are probably aware of a saying by Christian theologian C.S. Lewis, which is called the Lewis Trilemma, and goes something like, "either Jesus Christ was a lunatic, or he was simply mistaken, or he was who he said he was, God incarnate."

    A case of demonic possession

    I don't necessarily think the problem is one of definition, but of how people themselves view the event. Some people want to think that seeing a ghost, for example, is something outside the realm of what's normal, but some people think that it's something completely natural, and one day will be...

    A case of demonic possession

    I'm by no means a physicalist. I fully accept that things happen that we don't fully understand, things that many people would label as supernatural or paranormal. I believe in ghosts- I've seen them, experienced them. I've seen a great amount of evidence supporting their existence. It would...
