How many types of paranormal life exist?

Frankly, none of that has been shown to actually exist. You ask a question, you'll get an honest answer - if you don't want an honest answer, don't post in the science section or on this board at all. You don't get to dictate who answers your questions here. Saying this stuff doesn't exist isn't the same as calling you an idiot - lots of people believe in these things because they've never bothered really looking into the evidence for them and realizing there isn't any. Life outside our planets (aliens) could very well exist, and that's one avenue of research we're pursuing hotly - we'd love to find alien life. But we know it's not visiting us.
