| Tragic. Banned  Age: 88 Gender: Female Posts: 12363 | I believe there still "lost souls" in the Earth. But, I don't know! Im not sure if people even have "souls". |
| MistressRhi Motor Baby Age: 40 Gender: Female Posts: 991 | hmm bit contradictory there you believe in lost souls but then not sure if you believe in souls? what do you mean? If we don't have souls how do we explain our personalities, how we are all different, what happens when we die? |

| Pandora's Box Motor Baby  Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 767 | have you ever had anyone close to you die and then started to belive in ghosts and things ? thats what happened to me after something happend to me started to belive i was going to see there ghost i started to it and after a while i realised it was me imaging i was seeing there ghost and i eventually gave up so ghosts can be real if you really want them to be and if you dont want to belive there real then dont as for magic in my opinion its a load of old text in old latin that were once used but are no good now this world aint harry potter!!!! |
| MistressRhi Motor Baby Age: 40 Gender: Female Posts: 991 | most magick is not in old latin, movies do that to make it seem more spectacular but most magick can be done with a few simple gestures and words in any language, as long as you have the faith to do it you can say what you want. no guarantees what will happen if you do that though! lol! |

| S713 Joining The Black Parade  Age: 33 Gender: Male Posts: 225 | MistressRhi: Manipulation of magnetic fields i think. I couldn't find the article again, but if I do i will post it. #--------- Some researchers suspect there might be a quantum connection. Unpredictable, often bizarre effects have been documented in the world of subatomic particles, ruled by the perplexing laws of quantum mechanics. Are our minds capable of directing subatomic particles and energies in a way that results in PK phenomena? #------ One theory is that psychokinesis is the manipulation of a sort of human "magnetic field" around the body, which can be concentrated in a specific area. For this to work, they say, you must be able to relax completely and focus your attention without distraction Two theories.. |
| Oxycontin Genocide. Banned  Age: 29 Gender: Male Posts: 2955 | LVFD: I agree with #2. It's been proven that there is an "aura" around everything living..... sort of like a magnetic field and that if you can harness your energy, magicks can exist. |
| Not Afraid Anymore Killjoy  Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 26 | I believe in spirits, ghosts, and poltergueists [sp?] To me: spirits= just randomly here for no reason, or are here to protect us. ghosts= here for a reason, perhaps something needs to be avenged poltergueists= either dangerous michevous beings or really pissed off ill-willed beings. My friend has an ill-willed spirit in her house. I can't be by myself in her house alone. It actually follows her around like at school and at others houses. but not at mine. I think it's because my Dad's spirit is protcting my house and me and my mom. I know there is a different conversation going on, but someone had said something about ghosties, so i wanted to put in my two cents. =] |
| My-Chemical-Gumby Killjoy  Age: 33 Gender: Male Posts: 23 | Hey i'm a christian and i believe in Jesus and stuff like that, BUT, i also think we have a place we go to before we move on to Heaven and Hell. What do any of you think about that. is it right to believe in one religion and create some stuff of your own? |

| elixireleven Killjoy Age: 42 Gender: Female Posts: 31 | Erm... On this whole "magic" versus "magick" thing... The guy who supposedly brought Wicca into the mainstream about fifty years back (Gerald Gardner - hence the Gardnerian tradition in Wicca - it's named after him) added the "k" to differentiate "magick" (the manipulation of energy) from sleight of hand and parlour tricks. The basic premise is that everything posesses some sort of energy, you can call it life force, or field, or akasha, or whatever equivalent you can think of - but the basic idea is that through will, it can be manipulated and sent out into the universe to enact change in the self and one's surroundings. (How textbook is that?) Literally, though, it's just the spelling. I still refer to the art of change as "magic" without the k. (Mostly because I've disassociated myself with Wicca the religion, and focused on the practice as it appears in different geographic areas. New Orleans' hoodoo in particular. I think it's fascinating.) ... On another note, saying it's "gobbledegoo" suggests that you think the "Big Three" are "gobbledegoo" too. Most of magical/magickall practice draws from the same vein of ritual practice as Christian or Jewish ritual tradition. The emphasis is on just that - the ritual - and transubstantiation? Turning the host into the "body of Christ" or wine into "His blood"? Same idea. Different format. Different faith. Still "changing things." (All said very respectfully, of course. No intention of being inflammatory here.) |
| Lights Salute You in Your Grave  Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 2205 | I don't think most psychics are really true to form. How can we know though? |
| Beeblebrox Really Not Okay  Age: 44 Gender: Female Posts: 688 | I didn't believe in ghosts / hauntings until my family moved into a house that was haunted. It was a frightening experience and we eventually moved out. We saw and heard so much that was outside the scope of "normalilty" that I don't expect other people to believe it. It's something you cannot truly understand until you've had a personal experience. After talking with paranormal experts and a minister, we came to understand more about ghosts and spirits. We learned that "residual ghosts" aren't real ghosts. They're just leftover images that play back over and over again like a videotape. Experts call them the result of discharged personal energy of a person, imprinted on the surrounding environment, most commonly at or just after death. It's scientific in nature, not paranormal. The other type is the "intelligent haunting" where the ghost is a real ghost of a departed soul that is trapped in our world. They can interact with you, lift small things, make noise. |
| Dead Guardian Angel Jazz Hands Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 280 | First, yes. I believe in ghosts. Second, does anyone else have questions about the Magic vs Magick thing? I'd be happy to answer. TheSleepless: I wish I could answer your question...I don't know how we can know. But is your question about Magick or ghosts? *Sakura-chan* |
