Yes, I have experienced many 'supernatural' occurrences, but please don't assume that I dismiss them. I don't. I simply say these are my experiences and this is my belief, but whilst I know they happened, I wouldn't expect anyone else to agree with me unless they'd experienced something similar. If I can show them no proof, why should they believe it? I believe in the supernatural (although I don't believe it's 'supernatural' at all, but rather that it's a pretty 'super' example of nature). Contrary to your contention, I don't need anyone's backing to encourage me to continue to believe that - and no one could dissuade me from believing it either. Nevertheless, I wouldn't presume to tell you or anyone else it's the 'truth', because I cannot give you proof. Quite simply, belief is debateable, but truth is irrefutable.
People must believe what they want to believe - if they want to have faith in something they have no tangible evidence of, that's their business - but when it comes to telling others what the 'truth' is when they have proof whatsoever to back up their claims, personally it's there I draw the line.
