35 Situations People In This Online Thread Have Been In That Are So Bizarre Nobody Believes Them This is going to sound so childish, so bear with me.

When I was about 13, I was severely bullied, between the fact that my clothes were all second-hand, my mother was too caught up in f*****g her way down the alphabet to teach me how to groom or do makeup, and I hadn't yet grown into curves, so I was just a chunky weird girl with frizzy hair.

Because of this, I got OBSESSED with fantasy worlds. LOTR was my initial escape, and then I began writing.

This is when I saw the movie Fairy Tale, and I read up on it as much as I could. I vehemently believed in fairies. I lived in Germany at the time, only a couple miles from a castle. I made fairy houses in the trees outside and in the blackberry bushes on a trail to the library.

One day, my sister and I were walking home for dinner. This gold figure, about 3 inches high, flew in front of us, hovered for a moment, and flew off, leaving an honest-to-god golden trail of glitter behind it. We looked at each other for a couple minutes, and she goes, "Did you see that too?"

Nobody will ever probably see this, or believe it, but I swear it HAPPENED. Never saw anything like it since. There was no face or anything, it was just like this glowing golden roughly humanoid shaped golden thing with wings.

Walking home at night from college in Ireland in the early 90s, I saw an elderly man looking up with a puzzled look on his face. I looked up and saw an orange light about the same brightness as Venus, lazily moving back and forth in the sky - but completely silent. Suddenly it shot off in one direction at what could only be described as ludicrous speed for a second or two before coming to an immediate stop, then just sitting there motionless. Few moments later it shot off in another direction and came to a stop.

The two of us watched this for 3-4 minutes before it shot straight up and disappeared.

Oul fella looked at me, shrugged, and said "Well, you don't see that every day" and walked off.

I was living in Texas. It was around Thanksgiving. I lived by myself and was lonely and missing my relatives (the deceased ones).

I heard an alarm going off. It wasn’t my alarm clock. I followed the sound into my storage room and could hear it coming from a pile of boxes. I dug through and found the right box then tore it open.

In a bunch of stuff I had gotten when a favorite uncle died, there was a travel alarm I didn’t know I even had. It must have been his. It was going off about 3 years from the day when he died. He had died on a Thanksgiving morning.

I had just been thinking of him earlier that day.

35 Situations People In This Online Thread Have Been In That Are So Bizarre Nobody Believes Them I swear I'm not insane, but I was walking home from high school 9 years ago and I saw something that I absolutely can't understand that freaked me out badly. I was coming to a crosswalk and across the 2 lane street I saw a distinctive looking girl maybe a little older than me wearing a white dress, and she had a cocker spaniel puppy on a leash that was just sitting on the sidewalk. I looked away while I was watching for traffic and crossed over to her side, and when I looked up I kind of jumped because the girl in the white dress was now maybe in her late 60s and her dog was a very old, graying cocker spaniel.

I don't have eyesight problems and I seriously am certain of what I saw. I still wouldn't tell anyone I know because there's no way they would believe me. The only explanation I can feel comfortable with is *maybe* hallucination, but that's never happened to me before or since.

35 Situations People In This Online Thread Have Been In That Are So Bizarre Nobody Believes Them One time after school, my friend and I were hanging out in her room on the computer, and we heard the front door open and the little "beep beep" alarm go off when a door or window is opened. We both looked at one another, confused, since both of her parents weren't supposed to be home for several hours, and we both got a weird vibe from the sound.

So we slowly crept to her door, and she literally grabbed a bat, and we opened the door and peered down and over the banister to the living room below, and I SWEAR TO GOD there was a man in a business suit, with a brief case, just standing in her living room; the front door wide open behind him. And my friend was like, "Who are you?! Get out of my house!!" And he just slowly looked up at us, like he was totally stoned or confused, and was like, "Wha? ...... oh...... sorry........" and walked out and shut the door.

That was almost 15 years ago, and we both STILL remember it and talk about it to this day. At least someone else was with me who saw it!

This is unlikely. A satellite in space would be far too small to be as bright as described. When it hits the atmosphere, it will burn up, and can definitely look like a green streak, like a green shooting star. But not as bright as described. More likely, this was caused by the vitreous gel inside the eye rubbing against the retina. This can cause flashes of bright spots in your vision. If this is happening repeatedly, it could be a sign of a detached retina, and you should see a doctor.

35 Situations People In This Online Thread Have Been In That Are So Bizarre Nobody Believes Them When I was 18 I got woken up in the middle of the night with my mom's favorite song playing. Back when song ringtones were a thing, it was the sound I used to hear every day when people were calling her. It was a few months after she passed away. My laptop was dead... dead, dead, I remember falling asleep being annoyed that I was too lazy to walk downstairs to get the charger because I had homework. It was partially open on my vanity and then I wake up to the sound and the light at like 3 or 4am. The song was playing. I closed the laptop and it would not turn off. I opened it, first I looked for the song app or internet site that was playing it and could not find it. So I just had to hold down the power button forever for it to turn off. I couldn't sleep the rest of the night. No one believes me.

Also weird thing with my mom's death and the house (she died in the house comfortably, cancer). You don't have to disclose natural deaths when selling. One of the new owners quickly asked my family friend(my old next door neighbor) if someone died in the house previous because things would happen. My friends response was "yes, but she was a wonderful person and I don't think she would do anything negative" and the new owner was like, "she hasn't done anything bad, but I can just tell, and it's just random weird helping things"

I saw a tornado empty a hotel swimming pool.

This was in Nebraska, mid 90’s. We were staying in a room that has a sliding patio door that opened to a outside pool. The building was sort of “U” shaped with the pool in the U.

Storms were bad and the hotel lost power in the middle of the night. I pulled back the curtains by the sliding door to look outside and see how bad it was. Right then I heard a sound like a combination freight train and steam whistle, and saw the entire contents of the pool just lift straight up out of the ground like someone hit it with a giant shop vac. There was about a 3-4 second delay where I could only describe the sound as the combination of wind in a cave and water flowing through pipes. Then the wind pitched REALLY high for a split second and suddenly, it all stopped. Like someone dumping a bucket of water into a solo cup, the water crashed back down into the sides of the hotel. About half of it flooded back into the pool and the rest flowed across the patio area and out to the parking lot and the tornado was gone. Like sucking up an entire swimming pool killed it’s energy or something and it just all crashed back down.

A bunch of cars were moved sideways and a huge tree fell right next to our car and pancaked them. We had nothing on our car but a few little twigs and leaves. You could see the path the tornado crossed the road and came right into the hotel pool area. Zero damage to the hotel at all that we could see the next morning.

The power went out during a game of cops & robbers in the housing complex I lived in. It was at the edge of the town already so when the lights went out you could see the entire sky filled with stars. On this night as I was walking back to my house look up at the stars I saw one die. I mean it was something so beautiful, it was bright, blue, red and than it exploded only to all come back to one small dot that was white and it just flattened into a dim and that's was it. I'll never forget how much the initial explosion of it looked identical to the way an atom is drawn most commonly. It was something I haven't seen anythung like it again in over 15 years.

35 Situations People In This Online Thread Have Been In That Are So Bizarre Nobody Believes Them This is from Bangalore, India.

One of the quirks of the city's climate is the occasional isolated spots of heavy rain. There's a running joke of 'When you say its raining in Bangalore, do mention which locality and street too.'

So one summer in the late 90's, my friend and I were in the outskirts of the city, we saw a small crowd blocking the highway. There was a rain front slowly passing across the road, and the people were watching that spectacle. One side of the road was dry while the other side had heavy rain.

So we stopped the bike, cooly got down and took shelter beforehand. And from that comfortable vantage point, we saw a parked goods van whose one side was rainy while the other side was dry. Took 5 seconds for the van to be rained on fully, and another 10 seconds for us to be completely surrounded by rain.

Till date, my memory of this is in a super clear slow motion while my friend doesn't even recall this incident.

Edit: Looks like it is not an exceedingly rare phenomenon, and encountered across various climatic zones. We just have to be at the right place and the right time to sight it.

But one day when I was 6 years old, we were out playing as kids do, a girl in my class ran really fast in front of me, I was facing forward standing still, and she was running from the side, she tripped over maybe 15 feet in front of me and fell really hard, but as soon, as soon, and I mean as soon as she fell she got up like Clark Kent in Smallville, that’s literally how it looked when she got up. It was that fast, superhuman speed. She got up and kept laughing and running. I know I am not misremembering coz other kids saw that s**t as well. I never saw that girl after that day.

35 Situations People In This Online Thread Have Been In That Are So Bizarre Nobody Believes Them I've seen ghosts, UFOs/UAPs, and all kinds of weird s**t. But the most unbelievable thing, at least as far as the reactions I get when I tell the story is:

When I was in middle school, my gfs family used to take me to this hole-in-the-wall, $5 all-you-can-eat crab shack in MD (mid/late 90s). As a fat kid, I was "the ringer" to make sure we always got our money's worth, lol.

One night, when I was about halfway through what I would have eaten, I saw a dude eat an entire crab, ***shell, claws, and all***. Like this dude was HOUSING a whole-a*s crab, snappin' into it like a slim jim.

And it wasn't no softshell crab, either. You (well, I) could hear the chompin' and cracking from several tables over. I remember that I kept expecting to see blood dribbling out of his face, but it never did.

I was so awestruck and horrified that I couldn't even move; couldn't finish my food or anything. No one in our party saw it, because I asked about it on the ride home and everyone thought I was joking.

There has not been a single instance in my life since then that I've eaten crab without flashing back to that s**t.

I'm speechless because I had never seen this woman before and I never saw her again.

Also another time I was working the drive thru by myself on a busy and short-staffed night. I'm more agonostic than anything but I had this customer who was the spitting image of Jesus Christ. He wasn't dressed in holy robes or glowing or anything but I wanted my boss to take a second and look at him.

"Man I ain't got time for Jesus!"

So I sigh and I pass Jesus his food. He drives away and our power goes out. My boss is pissed but we all collectively blame him for disrespecting a diety.

French Diver’s “Jewels” In Tight Swimming Trunks Become Talk Of The Town At Olympics

When I was 8 I lived in a trailer park in Florida. One whole row of trailers were unoccupied, no power, no water. As any 8 year old in the early 90's, I played around them, because it was fun. If you've been to Florida you know what fire ants are. If you've lived in Florida you know how they react to having their hills stepped on.

So 8 year old me, not paying attention, wearing shorts, stepped calf deep into a fire ant mound. Yea, you know where this is going. Instantly my leg was covered in biting, stinging fire ants. A lot of them. Easily 100. Of course it hurts. I start screaming and stomping. That just pisses them off more.

No more than what felt like instantly, this man comes running around the trailer with a water hose. He sprays my legs off and tells me to run home to my mom. I do. Never saw the man before or since.

I live in Somerset, England. Both my grandparents swear on their lives they saw some kind of big cat, like a puma, in a nearby quarry. We don't have big cats in England.

They said it was sat laying there then they watched it walk away.

If it was just one of them, I wouldn't believe them but both my gran and grandad were walking there and I don't think they would both lie.

blue meteor.

it was the middle of summer. was at a friend's house. we were drinking. playing loud music. shootin' the s**t. i'm sitting there, looking up at the sky. i see this flash of blue. aquamarine/cyan, but a little bit richer. i tell my brother and our friend to look up so they can see. but they brush it off. i keep staring. a couple seconds go by. and then i see the meteor itself race across the sky.

gorgeous. it was white with a long blue completely straight tail.

I swear I saw a woman disappear in front of my house. I told my partner and friends exactly what happened in detail and obviously no one believes me, but to this day I know what I saw and I can't think of any way she could have gone out of my line of sight without me watching her move. She had abruptly stopped outside of my front window and looked really sketchy, so I was cautiously watching her as I was home alone. She looked like she answered a call and then VERY suddenly hunkered down to the ground, which obviously peaked my interest. There were no other people outside, no cars parked on the street where she was, and nothing to either side of where she hunkered down to that would've blocked me from seeing her. My partner insists that for whatever strange reason she must have crawled away out of sight, but I showed him the outside of my house and made it clear that it would be impossible to do that without me seeing. I will forever be confused.

We lived in an old house and instead of an actual attic like with pull down steps it was upstairs crawl spaces. So there’s access points to get into the walls, square about three feet on each side. There are wood pieces over the access hole and screwed into place. Sounds really ugly but it’s hardly noticeable with the matching paint and how thin the cover board was.

There was one in my room (upstairs) and at the top of the stairs. I was walking upstairs one day after school and I would bet two of my fingers that the corner of that cover board bent out at me, and not like wood, it bent like paper like someone just pulled the edge of a piece of paper up that had been against the wall. I saw INTO the crawlspace, a tiny a*s gap of darkness but I saw it. I was confused at first what was happening and then I got scared, those materials just don’t work like that, it couldn’t have happened, but it did.

I ran. Got downstairs and got a knife and waited to see if a murderer had been stashed in my house. When I didn’t hear anything I started blocking off rooms so I could check the lower floor, then I went to the stairs, couldn’t see any one up the stairs so I crept up as quietly as I could so that I could see the crawlspace access.

It was perfectly fine, no damage to it, no bend, not a scratch. It took me like an hour to go past it to check the rooms upstairs. I saw it bend though. I don’t believe in ghosts, magic, demons. I wasn’t tired that day, I wasn’t upset or spooked otherwise, no meds. It wasn’t a trick of lighting because it lasted so long and I saw it change while I was standing still and the light source was still. Just f***s my head up a bit. It bent, and went back to being fine, it broke the laws of physics. I was so spooked I asked my dad to add more screws. Took me a good while to quit worrying about it.

First thing I did with the one in my room was uncover it, the furniture in front of it I mean, had dad put more screws in but I wanted to watch that f****r. If it was gonna do something I wanted to be able to see it. Something wrong happened and I have no idea how

Sometimes when I get up in the middle of the night to use the loo ( I never put the lights on as it wakes the cats )when walking back the length of my landing changes. It takes me 12 steps to walk back to my bedroom door, sometimes it takes 15, other times just 7. The amount of times I have thudded into the door expecting there to be a place to walk and hit the door instead is numerous. It never happens if I put the light on and i'll always count 12 steps to my bedroom door. I'll leave you with that, suffice to say this isn't the only time I've experienced things like this in my life :)

I once saw the [Pend Oreille Paddler](https://shscedarpost.com/9043/arts-and-culture/the-pend-oreille-paddler/). He's a Nessie-like creature that plies the waters of Lake Pend Oreille in the United States' Pacific Northwest: Northern Idaho, to be exact.

It's pronounced "Pond Oray", by the way.

Lake Pend Oreille is tremendous, and gorgeous, with thick forest that grows right down to the waters edge. It's also very, very deep (1,150 ft./350.52m). It has a lot of huge logs floating in it, too, which can be a hazard to watercraft.

My first husband was part of the crew on a racing yacht, and I tagged along early one cold, foggy morning.

As we were sailing along, a few of us saw, off to the left side of the boat (we were heading due south), what looked like an absolutely *massive* tree trunk in the water.

Only this trunk was *moving* all on its own, in the opposite direction to our sailboat. It was leaving a wide wake in the water, and as we watched, three bumps appeared above the surface. They were the blue-green color of dark water (think lake water in the shade) and they were covered in small scales. We could see an actual space between the humps and the water. We kept watching in utter silence as it passed us by, until it suddenly just disappeared below the surface.

I'm still convinced, thirty years or so later (this was in the 80s), that I saw The Paddler. For one thing, logs don't just motate on their own. Second, they don't have visible humps like this object did. And third, they *can* be submerged, but they don't have the wherewithal to submerge that quickly, and that completely. Also, this thing was whisper-quiet. It was a pretty calm morning, too, with no choppy water, so it could not have been mistaken for rough waves.

I feel so special and blessed to have seen it that morning, and I would have loved to have filmed it!

Several years ago, probably around eight, my dad and I were at a hotel in Atlanta, Georgia. We were watching the Animal Planet or National Geographic channel (like I said, it’s Beene if he years) and an episode came on about preying mantis.

The episode was normal until the end. Dramatic music started playing and the camera zoomed over to a much larger praying mantis that was clearly a different breed. The narrator said “and now the youngling must perform a dance to see if it can please the gods.” So, the little mantis that the episode had been following did a little dance, and the big one watched for a minute and then leaned down and ate it. The voiceover said “the god was not satisfied” and the episode ended.

For years I never thought about that, but I remembered it around four years ago and brought it up to my dad. He got so excited because he had thought he imagined it, but no, he remembered it exactly and finished the quote about “appeasing the gods” before I finished.

We have tried ever since then to find it, but it’s nowhere. We found a similar episode about the mantis, but the voiceover never happened.

I am so glad he remembers it too because otherwise I would’ve thought I’d gone insane.

A UFO. Was riding in my buddy’s car one summer night on the way from the Bay Area to Sacramento. I had my window open. There were no lights on the highway, just the car’s headlights. Above the car to my right I saw something white fly over the car toward behind us. It looked like a football. I waited until I thought, based upon how fast it appeared to be going, I should be able to see it out the back window, so I turned around to look. Didn’t see it, but my friend said, “Oh, you saw that too?” I said, “Yeah.” We drove on for a minute then I said, “What was that?” Buddy said, “I don’t know.” Drove on for another minute and I said, “What the f**k was that???” He said, “I don’t know.” We just kind of left it at that.

Edit: It made no sound. My window was open and it appeared to be maybe a hundred or two feet in the air. A white, soundless football.

This happened in the late 90s. We have a Sapodilla Tree just outside our house. I saw a big-a*s bird landed on the branch of the tree. It looks like an eagle to me since there are no hawks or falcons here in the Philippines (not that i know of). It was standing there gloriously and I was watching it from our door and I was too stunned to shout and call for someone to witness it, and I swear to god it was the most badass memory of my childhood.

Eagles are rare here in the PH and most of them are in specialized sanctuary for eagles and our place is a thousand miles away from that sanctuary. So it’s hard to convince someone that this story was true but who cares and no i wasn’t high! hahaha 😝

So last year my dog had puppies and she was in this box lent to us by a friend. The box had a sticker on it that had like a wooden picture frame with a dog peering over the top with text inside saying something like ‘Dog’s Puppy Boxes’. Something else to know is that the sticker was at a slight angle. When the puppies were 4 or so weeks old, I noticed that the sticker had changed! The text had changed to something like ‘Weening Tray’, the font had changed and also, the text was level with the base of the box, not in line with the base of the sticker. I asked everyone in my family about it but as far as they are concerned it was always the current appearance. I had lots of photos and videos of the puppies in and around the box but I somehow never caught the sticker on camera! I convinced that I have travelled to an alternate dimension or something

We’d heard strange noises leading up to it (I remember being on alert even though this was a familiar wood) but I can’t for the life of me remember what it sounded like - this was probably 15+ years ago.

Piasa bird? There’s a Native American legend on the Missouri/Illinois border, around St Louis, of a giant man eating bird/dragon hybrid that swoops down on its human prey and drags them back to a cave on the bluffs. There’s a painting of it on one of the bluffs, made originally by Native Americans, and restored by the state of Illinois. Sounds like a myth, but there’s been lots of modern sightings of birds larger than eagles hanging out in Missouri, attacking kids and dogs. It’s been theorized the birds are condors, which is unlikely as they are no where close to being a native species in this area. But I believe there is a grain of truth in all legends. Just because people lived a long time ago doesn’t mean they’re stupid, or lying about what they saw and believed.

Not too bizarre, but many years ago (early 1970s) my family went on a city sightseeing trip. We stopped in a coffee shop for something to eat, and the practice there was that if you wanted a slice of cake, or a cream bun, the waitress would bring over a huge triple level cake tray full of buns. You chose what you wanted, then she took the cake stand away again. We'd all chosen ours, but there were still maybe 15-18 big cream buns on the cake stand. The next customer she waited on was at the table next to us-we heard him ask the waitress to leave the cakestand, and she said she'd give him more time to choose and left him with it. He then ate his way through every single bun and cream cake on the stand-just a steady, chain-eating munch fest. The next bun was in his mouth when he was still swallowing the last. We just sat and stared, I've never seen anyone eat as much or as quickly. These were huge big fancy patisserie cakes and buns, not tiny delicate macarons.

He lit the cigarette and in that moment a huge piece of snow/ice fall from the roof on the sidewalk just few meters in front of him. It was 5 or 6 floors tall building, so it made a nice thud noice. We both stopped and looked up, in case more giant iceblocks would fall. Then he turned around, quite pale from the shock, looked at me, looked at his cigarette, blew out the smoke from his first draw and said "and they say smoking kills."

Took a moment to realize where we were. Tracked on Google walk and it literally had us walking through the stage, which we did not do. Total glitch.

Most of mine involve Colorado weather. People here believe them but friends from elsewhere don't. I went to a birthday party as a child where there was not a cloud in the sky and no wind. We had to come inside because it started raining so hard it destroyed the pinata. The rain was coming from a storm over the horizon and freak high altitude winds over the mountains. Simultaneous funnel clouds descending from skies that disappeared in seconds when a rainbow appeared. Freak July coldsnaps where it snowed 10 miles away on the closest mountain (Mt. Evans) on days it broke 90 F. Multiple day tumbleweed filled dust cloud stopped by an ice storm sweeping across the plains and freezing them to the ground. True fear is trying to avoid being rear-ended in your car by a 6 foot wide tumbleweed at 60 mph. During Covid, it went from 75 F (24 C) to -5F (-21 C) then back up over 65 F (18 C) in less than 3 days. Snowstorms that literally stopped at property lines.

When I was in elementary school I was walking home from school with my mom and sister. I was like 15 or so feet ahead of them and at one point I stopped to wait for them to catch up, when this weird thing that looked EXACTLY like a fat sausage with legs walked out in front of me, turned its nonexistent head to look at me for a second, then walked to the other side of the sidewalk and disappeared into the grass. I know for a fact that's what I saw but nobody believes me.

I have to share this because I'll never forget it. I had my daughter recently & was home with her up at night, nursing her while she napped etc. I was exhausted so there's that lol but I know what I saw....my baby was sleep near me & I was relaxing on our big couch & turned on the tv to watch netflix. Instead of my netflix screen, no joke, a young girl with crazy hair & a demonic face stared back at me from the tv screen. Thinking it was a paused show/movie my mom or husband was watching I was startled but just tried to prompt back to the main netflix screen so I could change the show...nothing happened. I couldn't change the channel/screen anything. So I turned the tv off & turned it back on again & there was she again. My mom walked in at that moment & was startled by the image & asked what in the world I was watching so I know she saw the image too. We didn't have cable at the time so it couldn't have been another channel. I kept turning the tv off but nothing would happen. So crazy

I was about 8-9 years old, my younger cousin and I were walking on a footbridge over a busy urban highway when suddenly there was a flash of light and we both ended up on our butts. No injuries, just confusion.

I was taking a late night flight from Barcelona and they turned off the lights for the passengers to go to sleep and I was wide awake and watching a movie. I was sitting window side and I feel someone tapping my shoulder, it was a passenger behind me and he points to my window to pull up the shade. I'm glad I did. We were flying at a lower altitude and what I saw was electrical storms roaming over the land below. Saw lightning strikes from above and below with dark clouds that hovered over parts of the land, foothills, and some farms, while other parts of the land had no clouds and clear skies above. It was unbelievably beautiful and yet frightening! I stayed up starring out the porthole for at least an hour. I like to think me and my cabin mate were the only ones who witnessed such a once in a lifetime event.

My most unbelievable event would also be one of the most funny. We had to big Burmese cats when I was growing up and they would take on anything and bring home anything. When I was about 12 the pair of them where hearding a goat down our yard. Total double take moment. I miss those cats

Norse ghost, was about to turn on the lights for the last part of the stable and a tall man appeared in front of me clearly wounded in a normal norse outfit from the ca 900. I was no wear near the switch as I had yet to reach my hand behind a wooden plate(horses learned the switch). still get told it was just in my head and flash of the light, but cant been that as I had not reached behind for the switch & I had speed record of running out the stable.

For the last few years, I've been having these little instances where I'll reach out to do something, and things will start to react a second or two before I actually touch them. First, it was just stuff on my computer, like folders opening before my cursor was on them, or links opening before I clicked. I just thought, 'whatever', because it's all electrical, and maybe my touchpad was just glitching out. But then it started to be physical objects. Like the towel in the bathroom would start swinging a second before I started drying my hands. Or my pen would start rolling a split second before I grabbed it from my dresser. It doesn't happen all the time, just every once in a while. The problem is, the movement blends in so seamlessly with the action I'm already about to do, that by the time it all happens, I don't even know if I really believe it myself.

I saw someone make a comment about how people shouldn't believe things they know are not true and no one made a nasty retort about them spreading hate or down voted them . Just joking. THAT is pure fantasy

I'm assuming this is about you commenting about religion being stupid and getting downvoted based off the few comments I've seen looking at your profile. The issue with that kind of thing is that sometimes things like that mean a lot to people and telling them it's all fake and dumb is kinda rude. I can totally understand it if you're correcting someone about the Earth being flat or something, but sometimes it's probably better just to let people believe what they want. I'm sorry you've had many negative experiences with that, I've had a lot trying to defend religion. It sucks, but it's just something that happens when people's beliefs are insulted or opposed.
