Message: <blockquote data-quote="nofearfactor" data-source="post: 1529025" data-attributes="member: 1535">We've had this same discussion here a few times before.I'm a perpetual sceptic of anything paranormal, spiritually abnormal, phenomenal, etcetc. I collect alot of weird stuff too. I read a book once in my teens on debunking the paranormal and psychic phenomena- basically scepticism of most anything that cant be explained- that was written by the magician James (The Amazing Randi) Randi. That book got me into wanting to debunk the paranormal and things that couldnt be explained myself, so it became a hobby. Mr Randi is part of a think tank organization that has had a $1 million dollar challenge on the table for ANYBODY on the planet to come forward with proof of clairvoyancy, hauntings, psychic abilities, healing powers, etcetc. NO ONE so far has shown proof or collected the money. In over 40 years. <a href="http://www.randi.org/site/index.php/1m-challenge.html" target="_blank">http://www.randi.org/site/index.php/1m-challenge.html</a>Ive been on a few 'visits' to supposedly haunted sites with a few different paranormal groups in pretty much every place Ive lived. Since it interests me and is a hobby when I move to an area I set out to seek out paranormal groups. In northern California I went on a few visits with a couple of different groups in and around Sonora and Columbia,Ca- the original  Gold Rush areas on Hwy 49. In Iowa I went on a visit to the Villisca murder house site with a group and even spent the night. <a href="http://www.villiscaiowa.com/" target="_blank">http://www.villiscaiowa.com/</a>  .In Tulsa when I first moved to the area I joined a group at the time called NEOGHOST and went on some visits- The Brady theatre, Sparkys gravesite, an old hospital, a couple of other places in downtown Tulsa, etc.So far, I havent experienced anything that cant be explained yet. Even though Im sceptical of it all, Im not going to say it doesnt exist, I just havent experienced it yet.The murder house in Iowa is the closest Ive come though to saying that maybe something is out there, cause that place was pretty freaking spooky, but nothing happened as far as I could tell on my visit. So, Im still sceptical of any of it, and still searching for something weird to happen. Being Agnostic Im also severely sceptical of most spiritual or religious 'phenomena' stories too. As a major horror film/movie fan-atic my favorite movies have always been the psychological spiritual kind like 'The Exorcist' and the recent excellant 'The Rite' with Anthony Hopkins. The Book of Revelations is naturally my favorite book to read in the bible.</blockquote>
