Thank you for taking the time to answer. Please encourage your friends to participate too. Your answer will be logged. This information is going to prove to be very important regarding our personal experiences. As of now, personal experience is considered the "armpit" of paranormal data.
Hoping all is well in your world!
Take Care!

I believe 100% in the paranormal. And I don't think people who believe are crazy because ghosts/spirits DO exist and it makes me believe that there is something more than just this life, and there is a whole other life after death.

Para-Investigations response

1) Would you consider (or have considered) yourself a "believer" in the paranormal? Have you ever experienced any paranormal event?

yes, we have experianced so much and captured some amazing footage.

2) Would you consider (or have considered) yourself indifferent as to the existence of all things paranormal? Have you ever experienced any paranormal event?

I personally have never seen a full Apparition, but we have captured some starnge paranormal footage during invetigations

3) Would you consider (or have considered) that everyone who believed in the paranormal either "stupid" or "crazy" or just not wrapped too tight? Have you ever experienced any paranormal event?

When I first starting investigating my impression was that people were strange, but since meeting other paranormal investiagtors realised that the paranormal world is full of intresting and smart people.

Only in as much as they feel comfortable doing do. I am very interested in what I like to call the "Black Sheep Variable", that is -- personal experience. : )

1) Would you consider (or have considered) yourself a "believer" in the paranormal? Have you ever experienced any paranormal event?

I am very much a believer in the paranormal and have been as far back as I can remember. Over the 30+ years I have been interested in and investigated the paranormal I have had many experiences.

2) Would you consider (or have considered) yourself indifferent as to the existence of all things paranormal? Have you ever experienced any paranormal event?

I have on two occasions seen a full apparition, recorded evp and taken many photographs showing 'paranormal' images.

3) Would you consider (or have considered) that everyone who believed in the paranormal either "stupid" or "crazy" or just not wrapped too tight? Have you ever experienced any paranormal event?

To be honest I could never understand why people did not believe - my early experiences made me think it was 'normal' (what ever that is) to see what I later learnt were what we call ghosts.

We have been conducting a more comprehensive and in-depth study similar to what you are asking here for the past few months. We are still gathering information and will release the case study results in September 2010. We are still looking for more responses.

Mr. Young, no one as yet knows how "in-depth" my study actually is, nor what has been accomplished thus far. Logically speaking, if you jump to conclusions so quickly here, I wonder what kind of conclusions your "study" is going reveal... : ) Be careful with this kind of behavior: your enthusiasm can ruin your credibility. So what is the point of your statement again?
On the other hand, kudos for doing something. I hope your findings contribute something valuable to the "field" of paranormal research.
Take Care,
LU

LU,
Nothing in my response warranted your retaliation. You asked 5 questions, I simply stated that I was doing a similar study that is more comprehensive and in-depth. Your questions are very focused and direct, mine are broad and encompass more. Never did I imply that what you were doing was wrong. For somebody that was quick to reprimand for jumping to conclusions, you have ironically done exactly just that yourself by assuming that I was somehow attacking you or your study.

You state that I should be careful of this kind of behavior. Exactly what kind of behavior are you referring, because I truly did nothing short of mentioning that I was doing a similar case study? How could this ruin my credibility? Your argument is one of short sightedness and unnecessary hostility. There is a reason that I do not frequent this site. It is responses like yours that remind of this.

People do not react for absolutely no reason. Please take a look at your first sentence carefully. Maybe it is a matter of a writing style. If I had written to you, " I have been conducting a study much more comprehensive and in-depth similar what you are asking here for the past few months." Hmmm well, I think there are better ways of stating something similar like, "I see you are conducting a study on ____. We have been trying to research the same thing. Maybe we can compare notes with our results." How pleasant that would be. Like I said, people don't take offense at nothing. Again, maybe it is just your writing style.
I was not assuming you were attacking anything. I just pointed out that you assumed that the study you were conducting was "more comprehensive and in-depth." That IS what you said. I was simply trying to offer you some constructive advice.
Like I said, I wish you well and hope your study really opens some doors. That is all.
Take care,
LU

Again, I have not stated or done anything out of context. My first statement is exactly as I wanted. I said that I have been doing a case study similar to yours that is more comprehensive and more in-depth than the one you are doing. If you wish to argue your 5 questions against a survey that offers close to 100, than so be it. Basic observational skills would support more comprehensive and in-depth as exactly what my study is compared to yours, not assumption. It was not meant as demeaning or anything of the sort, but a mere statement that we are doing something similar but also asking a lot more. You stated yourself in your first sentence that your study is subjective, we are trying to offer a more objective study.

Your sample sentence does not apply to what we are seeking either, as we are not researching the same thing, only similar ideas, which is why it was worded the way it was. Again, our study is more comprehensive and in-depth and covers a wide array of topics and questions, which is the definition of what comprehensive is. If there is more to your study than what is posted here, it is not easily accessible or found.

What was simply meant to be a short and to the point post has somehow turned into a long drawn out discussion about why it was posted. You have unfortunately taken my posting out of context for whatever reason. I will leave it at that, as there is really no need to further this discussion about it.
