You remind me of the poster on Mulder's wall that said "I want to believe" under the "photo" of a UFO Grin

I have the sceptic gene, too.

I have the sceptic gene too.

I'm now kinda wanting to mock up a poster of the UFO with the caption "I want to question"!

I'm on Team Woo!!!! Too many episodes of Wooness to recall. my gran's sister was a spiritualist and I think I take after her a bit
It's very easy to understand scepticism if no moments of Woo have happened to that person...

My DM was a spiritualist, which inadvertently boosted my scepticism.

I've had moments of woo, I just don't believe them.

cote I see you are here again, strange that Confused when you are not at all interested anyway.

I'm team 'woo' too, through experiences of my own, some don't experience or have a valid reason to believe, that's a shame, but some people have a reason to believe.
Why mock them ?

Maybe you are on Team Woo because you are easily confused? [buwink]

You must have misunderstood something. I am interested, of course, which is why I'm on this thread. If you look at the evidence ("Cote often shows up on woo threads"), it is easy to arrive at the correct answer.

Or maybe you are on Team Woo because you avoid the evidence? [busmile]

I stillllll love you all. No pills. No evidence. But I am not confused either.

I think you do believe in woo really Grin otherwise you wouldn't give this thread the time of the day, or do you just enjoy dishing out the playground banter ?

Could anyone explain why I saw, what I can only describe as a 'strip of fire' about 20 yrs ago ?
I was, at the time opening aim wrapping a fruitella sweet for my niece, as she was so small looking up to me waiting for her sweet to be opened she noticed it too, and still remembers today.
I thought it was a trick of the eye and carried on opening the sticky sweet, but then my niece asked me 'what was that ?' so at that point I knew it wasn't 'just me'
Nothing too scary, vanished in seconds, was incredibly strage though.
Hadnt gave it much thought really, but what could it have been ?

sugars where did you see this 'strip of fire'? How big was it? Could it have been the reflection of something catching a window, etc?

TwoSugars - Nobody can tell you what lies behind a 20-year-old memory in your head.

nightlurker I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. People can be sceptical about one thing and less sceptical about another. :)
