The classification of the term Paranormal
November 8th 2010 02:51
Depending on the surrounding internet community, the subject of the Paranormal can come under several classifications. For example, at Orble, this blog is under the miscellaneous section and lumped in with religion. As a side note, other subjects under the miscellaneous section at Orble are history and education which is kinda odd to me, but oh well.
Other internet communities have listed the Paranormal under science, hobbies and nature. I would much prefer that it was listed under the science section as it is closer to science than religion.
I guess that dinosaurs were once listed under the beliefs category until someone moved them to the science section. Remember that evolution is a theory that is getting more and more evidence to prove that it is more than just a theory. The same thing with the Paranormal. As more evidence comes together it will become an accepted part of science and no longer called "para"-normal
