Your personal experience with the paranormal does not prove it exists any more than my experiences with LSD proved that colours can be tasted; your child is probably not especially clever nor beautiful (other than in the way that all children are); you do look rather fat in those jeans; chances are pretty good that you aren't a particularly good driver nor are you as attractive to the opposite sex as you think you are.

Flipping a coin and getting heads 10 times in a row means you have about a 50/50 chance of getting heads again next time you do the flip despite your intuition otherwise; if you ask an expert for an informed opinion and you don't agree with it, you are most likely wrong and he or she is right, especially when your idea is "common sense" and theirs isn't; alternative medicine is not being held back by the drug companies/doctors; you really do snore and since YOU ARE SLEEPING WHEN IT HAPPENS it's obvious that you are in denial when you claim otherwise.

If you have a simple solution to a complex problem, it has already been tried and failed to work; nuclear power is more environmentally friendly than coal, oil, or hydro, so if you were really environmentally conscious and not just a freakin' Luddite, you'd support it; if magic worked then we'd be flying brooms instead of jetplanes; meat is not murder unless you're a cannibal; and Jesus not only doesn't love you, he wishes you'd mind your own damn business already.
