That figures the Dems have a higher KOOK factor. :)

Certainly explains how more of them “believe in” global warming and such.

Yes; many Libs; but not all. Remember 'Nancy'! So, yes; am a 'believer'/lol. . .albeit not without a scepticism where needed.

Meantime, I NEVER bought into the most dangerous of belief systems i.e. the 'Change' we can believe in'. . .

Why wouldn’t the Democrats believe in ghosts? They (the dead) are their biggest voting bloc! /s

And many of the Dems believe, like Van Jones, that the US Government knew about 9/11 before it happened.

Well my paranormal group we have about 20 people ranging from a dentist, an attorney, an electrical engineer, a few nurses, small business owners and some blue collar professions thrown in. We about 50/50 between conservative and really don’t know what they are politically. Interesting, expensive and exhausting hobby, all of us got interested due to a personal paranormal experience.

***”..Conservatives and Republicans report fewer experiences than liberals or Democrats communicating with the dead, seeing ghosts and consulting fortunetellers or psychics,”***

How many conservatives and Republicans do you find in a sweat lodge?

None. They are sweating out the Obama admin.

This is not surprising to me. Liberals have far lower church attendance than Conservatives. Human beings are by nature “spiritual,” so liberals are drawn to the occult. They exchange traditional Christianity for alternative religions. What they are looking for is a supernatural power or knowledge while rejecting the God of the Bible. It is the biblical story of Eve repeating itself.

I’m a diehard fan of inexplicable phenomena and also a diehard conservative.

New science is fascinating stuff. Jesus was deeply mystical-—in truth—the ultimate ‘zen master’ if you take the trouble to move semantics aside.

This explains a lot of Dem campaigning.

The pagan groups I visit have quite a few conservatives. I went to a meet up pagan group in my county and 4 out of the 5 people were strong conservatives. I find that these groups have strong connections to the military as well. Almost all of the esoteric groups I go to are predominately conservative. I am in Georgia but I expect California is different, though.

More Democrats than Republicans believe in ghosts, talking with the dead, fortunetellers

It's called "Get Out the Vote".

liberals or Democrats communicating with the dead, seeing ghosts and consulting fortunetellers or psychics," the Pew study says.

Otherwise known as political "consultants."

Quite revealing and not surprising. "Democrats" to me have always come off as goofs and dumbazzes. It is hard to put into words but MY psychic abilities tell me something is way off when I get around a hard core liberal/commie.

And given a little time that person will always do and say nutty and stupid things that prove me right.

As a conservative,Christian and a person that seeks for evidence of the paranormal, I see no dichotomy. The real pioneers and academics in the field are pretty apolitical. Lots of really bright folks and on the bleeding edge of science and physics. The kooks, Wiccan types and TV investigators DO NOT represent the field.
