A compassionate way to entertain claims of paranormal activity

Do ghosts try to poison unwanted living guests with carbon monoxide? That’s terrifying! Like two silent killers in one.

I sort of agree. If you go into a conversation thinking that you are trying to change someone else’s beliefs then you are being patronizing, and I don’t think there is any way around it. If you spend time planning in advance how best to work with their particular psyche then it’s hard to separate what you are doing from a con artist.

I like the idea of having some compassion for other people, and I don’t see the point in mocking people’s belief in ghosts or UFOs. I don’t know that I much see the point in trying to change a random person’s belief in these things either, though.
