I just finished watching the movie "Contact" from 1997. I had seen it before, but someone recomended I watch it again and pay attention to the science vs. spiritual debat in the movie. It is not unlike this thread. At the end, Jodie Foster's character gives an impassioned speech. Her character says that she had an experience that she can't prove, can't explain, but it was something wonderful that changed her...

That is my main interest on this board, is to share experiences. If enough people say, yes, I had a similar experience, at least we can build a powerful list of anecdotal evidence. I think that is the most we can hope for when dealing with normal vs. paranormal. And not just the standard list of paranormal "abilities", but things like premonitions and synchronicity.

I have had quite a few magical and mystical experiences. I have shared a few in this forum. And I suspect that anyone here would be changed if a few of the things I have listed had happened to them. But if I sound like a "true believer" of the paranormal, it is because the sum total of my experiences is more than I have I already spoken about. And the most profound of these experiences, much more profound than I have already spoken about. In fact, some of my experiences, defy words.
