Besides your belief that there is no higher power, what are your thoughts on supernatural phenomena?
Lets take a little break from politics and have us a real atheist conversation.
Personally, I'm open to the idea of the existence of supernatural phenomena, and I believe mainstream religions are actually complicated incomplete stories full of misinterpretations, misunderstandings, and half-truths.
Basically, I think that these stories are not as simple and straightforward as they seem to be to religious people. I feel like there is a lot more to them. Concluding that all these stories are just made up or came out of nowhere is kind of hard for me.
I disagree. You seem to be unfamiliar with the definition of supernatural. Supernatural is anything that transcends the laws of nature. Not things that can't be observed or explained. Something that defies the laws of nature is not natural now, is it?
