What unknown's and unexplainables do you believe in?

I'm a firm believer of logic.
Bermuda Triangle? Methane bubbling up from the ocean floor.
UFOs? Unidentified flying object, like ball lightning or weather lights, not aliens in discoballs.
If you do believe in fairytale things you are just eager to blame outside forces for your own inability to control you life. (life should not even be fully controlled, it's an adventure! :))

i'm kinda fascinated with all the stuff you mentioned. even if i don't believe in them, i like to watch documentaries xD

for me it's how some people can survive without brains.
a true mystery of the universe. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm scared of ghosts, but only when it's dark and a spoopy atmosphere.

I'm a very open-minded person, but I don't "believe" in anything that there isn't evidence for. I put that in quotes because I'm not really sure how to explain it.

For instance, extra-terrestrial life. I believe it's very unlikely that we're the only form of life in the universe, but I don't claim to know whether they exist or not. Although it would be so exciting if we found that out to be true in my lifetime.

Another one: the idea that we're living in a simulation. I'm very amused by that idea, but I don't claim to know whether that's true or not, I just believe it's possible.

I enjoy watching YouTube videos about these crazy theories every now and then.

So in other words, I believe in the possibility of the thing existing, but not in the thing itself (until evidence is provided, of course).

It really boils down to "whatever makes me sleep at night". People will always have conflicting views and opinions about everything. Either side you choose, you will still look like an idiot to the opposing side. I'll choose whatever satisfies me.

I believe my dad really did just go to the store... for 10 years.

Jokes aside, probably karma? If that counts.

I like to dream. And I enjoy ideas about ghosts and such.
But I dont believe in such stuff. Most of everything can be described and proven by physics.. People used to apply superstitious and religious stuff to things they couldnt explain. Now its not a case anymore.

Although I do keep and open mind towards aliens. With universe this vast and such complex biology and evolution, there could be something out there..
But I always get chills from the quote that goes something like this - Theres either someone else in the universe besides us, or there is nothing at all and we are all alone. Both are equally scary concepts.

I got beliefs and opinions challenged and refuted so many times that now I only believe that (blindly) believing is wrong.

I think that is not correct to "believe" in the unknown. Is that simple. Is unknown.

You try to discover, to study, to learn in the frontier with the unknown until it became "known". There you move to the next mystery.

Unknown territory transforms in known territory with solid evidence. If the claims are outrageously extreme, the evidence must be the strongest and capable of sustain the more severe scrutiny.

i believe in a thing called love

Nah, it's all bollocks. Aliens flying around on Earth, Atlantis, the Bermuda Triangle, the Loch Ness monster, pyramid power, healing crystals, you name it. The fact that we can comfortably group all this stuff together and it has nothing in common except being "the unknown and unexplainable" says it all, really. It stays alive because it's cheap entertainment, the modern equivalent of a fairy tale, just enough plausibility that people can keep thinking about it, but at the same time without any actual grounding in reality, so that it doesn't really matter if you believe it true, false or irrelevant. The moment any of it would be definitely proven to exist in one particular way, most people would lose interest in it and move on to something else.

Meanwhile, the actual discovery of extraterrestrial life (and particularly, what it's made of) would, of course, be an absolutely pivotal moment in the history of science, even if it was microscopic. By comparison, little grey/green men in saucers abducting people for probing purposes and mutilating cattle are only cool if we get to shoot them, or they get to shoot us.

Like some people above, I kinda believe in the probability of existence of extraterrestrial life (somewhere very far away from us). As for all this other stuff from god(s) to the Loch Ness monster, I'm prepared to believe it as soon as I see some actual scientific evidence. It's a bit hard to be religious/superstitious coming from a family of biologists and having recieved decent psychological education, you know.

Tide goes in, tide goes out. Never a miscommunication. You can't explain that.

Some days I like to think that the universe has purpose. Other days, I think, maybe not.

This is not the same as belief/disbelief in god, though I suppose you could say that it is related.

I believe the answer to the big question of life, the universe and everything is 42.

UFOs. Seen a few in my time, all quite different. Not claiming they were alien in origin. The most amazing was one was in a remote area of Eastern Washington in the summer of 1982. Even today most would probably struggle to suggest who could build a craft the size of a 747 that can drift slowly across the sky at low altitude while remaining completely silent.

Women.

Gravity

Who don't see a ufo or a ghost CAN be a believer, but who saw and lived these things is a witness, and yes, afterlife exists.

Female logic

I believe in ghosts, in the occult and the paranormal. Sometimes, we humans are so sure that we have evereything figured out, but that's ridiculous.

I also kind of believe in the UFO: I'm fairly sure there is life on other planets, in other galaxies... the space is supposedly endless after all, it's extremely unlikely that we'd be the only living things out there. I don't believe that the aliens are trying to contact us or anything, though. We must be pretty insignificant to them, so perhaps they observe us, but probably have no reason to interact with us.

I tend to be skeptical towards supernatural claims. The reason it's called "supernatural" or "unexplainable" is because we don't yet understand it, or the person making the claim doesn't understand it. So why not just settle with "I don't know what that was," instead of jumping to conclusions? For instance, a lot of people believe in ghosts. So why are there almost no plausible video recordings on the internet? Almost every single one looks completely staged (their incentive is of course that these kinds of videos bring a lot of views).

Another example: Fear of the dark. This is a rational, evolutionary fear, and its purpose is to keep us on alert against dangerous predators that we can't see. For most of us, it's not that useful any longer, though, so you could argue it's an irrational fear. When someone with a fear of the dark is exposed to darkness, it's normal for their imagination to run wild. It's in that moment, when they are afraid, that they are susceptible to irrational thoughts. Those irrational thoughts tend to fester, unless the phobia is tackled. Also, confirmation bias is very common.
