My theory is that some people just happen to be...intellectually handicapped, i guess. It's much easier to grasp the idea of god than it is to grasp a more logical explanation. Also..some people feel lost without faith, without having something to believe in. They can't just accept the fact that we can't know or explain everything, because we don't have all of the answers.

There certainly will be a majority of people in modern society who will not accept anything which is not scientifically proven. This is not surprising, given that the almost universal education supplied to children in such societies revolves around the scientific method. The more educated you are, the more inculcated you become in scientific rationality. That said, present science does not explain many real phenomena, and in fact, rather than investigate them using what tools are available, simply denies their existence because they can not be observed or measured using present scientific practice, instruments or knowledge. Personally, I think that any event is open to scientific explanation, if our science is advanced enough. In the meantime, there are some real events and abilities which cannot be proven. It is really a personal judgement whether one accepts these realities or not. One is likely to be a lot more accepting if one has experienced such things themselves. If a person has never experienced a paranormal event, it is asking quite a leap of faith by them to accept such things, when everything they have been taught leads them to deny the possibility.

Hello Menevado, We need to be tolerant to each other so if some people prefer belief than science we have to accept that. On the other hand science can't explain everything so beliefs are necessary for human species...

I think that most of weird things can be explained by science. But scientists don't want to research weird things becouse they don't believe in them :))))

actually its hard for me to explaine which one we are going to believe. yes i do believe in science but not all things related to it.look all of us have belief which group we are belong to. not all people are interesting in weird things its up to them how,when and where they going to believe them.. cowboy...
