Science has - or at least has claimed to have - debunked many things, especially in the pseudoscience category. As this is a Pagan forum, it is safe to assume that there are those on this forum who believe in things that are classified as pseudoscience and the paranormal, e.g. crystal healing, reiki, ghosts, Ouija boards, Tarot cards, etc.
Look up any of what I have listed above with the word "debunked" in Google and you will likely find an article or study vehemently disproving these beliefs or practices. So how do you feel when you read these rebuffs? Do you feel your belief or faith shaken? Do you wonder if it is possible that it is the placebo effect, in the case of crystal healing or acupuncture, or simply all in your head, like ghost or UFO sightings?
Are there any beliefs that you previously had but have now discarded due to it being disproved by science, or has the opposite happened and your beliefs stronger still?
