Actually, Tina, no, I don't call that intelligent. It seems to me there are many who debunk anything considered paranormal simply because they, themselves, haven't experienced it. There are no doubt many fraudsters out there who prey on the weak, the naive, and the vulnerable, but in the main, I dont think ordinary people lie about these things. Why would they? For what purpose?
I have experienced some very odd occurrences which truly defy logical explanation. I'm not prone to flights of fancy, I'm pretty level headed and rational, I'm not into religion in any shape or form, I don't tell lies, and I will always look for the most obvious answer first - but nevertheless I can't explain them.
To my mind, anyone with an iota of scientific curiosity ought not dismiss this out of hand. Some people are clearly experiencing something, and whatever that something is warrants level headed and unbiased investigation.
