That we die, that’s embarrasing.
You waited until the next day to find out from other relatives calling you that your mother actually had died?

There is no necessity for putting chicken feet in a glass of water under the bed.
Indian corn, the multi-colored variety, hung at the front door and back door will do the trick.
That is directly out of Santeria.
Peter popoff gets people to buy his spring water so that they may have supernatural money show up in their accounts
Or, paint your porch ceiling Haint Blue, they hate that.
My late father grew up in Northern Missouri and Iowa during the Depression. One day, his grandmother asked him to fetch her pipe from the house as she sat in her rocker on the porch. After she smoked a bowl, her already dead husband visibly came and took her to Heaven while my father watched. Her body, of course, remained in the rocking chair.
When they told Helen Keller LSD would make her see things she said I am going to have to try that.
The next day I was telling my husband about it. An older gentleman was there and he told me we had heard the children who burned up in the fire.
Many years before a house in the area burned and about 6 children died. He had been out in the area coon hunting with a friend when they heard the screams. The fire had happened before he was born and he had never heard the story.
He said we were lucky to have heard the children playing and laughing instead of screaming.
Yep, as are your constant posting of vanities over the last 15 years.
CS Lewis took issue with the terms, “supernatural,” and, “paranormal.” He indicated they were perhaps the ultimate expression of human vanity, suggesting we had a complete understanding of all that is, “natural,” or, “normal”. Less than a milennia ago, people believed that a solar eclipse was a beast trying to devour the sun. A thousand years from now, people will look back at our grotesque ignorance with similar amusement.
I suspect there may full well be legitimate cases of psychokinesis, precognition, ESP, etc. which all have perfectly, “natural,” explanations we as of yet fail to understand.
I’ve never had a supernatural experience, does this mean I’m dead already?
I used to have out of body experiences when I was young, and no they were not drug related. Several years ago I house SAT for a friend of mine for a week. He liked to go to fortune tellers etc. There was some entity in that house that apparently did not like me, lights would go on off by themselves I would hear coughing and other noises that I could not explain. One morning I woke up suddenly and then was pushed by something causing me to almost roll off the bed.
“I’ve never had a supernatural experience, does this mean Iâm dead already?”
Yep,and now we’ll all start seeing you.
Frightening !!!!!
,
I pretty much expected that these post responses would be filled with invective’s. Oh well. If you read them, there are two answering posts to about 8 slamming posts. About what I expected. Maybe it is not I that need to open my eyes. Just saying....
I had an out of body experience just once. I was told, in no uncertain terms, that it was forbidden to me. I have never tried since.
I liked his response. People greatly desire a consciousness of power, real or imagined.
CS Lewis was a Christian so he most definitely believed in the supernatural. There was a time in his life when he was young when he was an atheist so maybe that reference you cited was from writings he did during that time.
Yeah, eventually I got the word on that too and stopped doing it. However they served their purpose because these experiences caused me to believe in the supernatural which eventually led me to become a Christian.
