People are often times afraid of things they don't understand - and few people have a firm grasping on the paranormal, leading to fear on the subject. One way to remove the fear is to educate and help those who are feeling victimized or frightened by paranormal activity. Professional paranormal research groups, like The Atlantic Paranormal Society (TAPS) exist solely to help educate folks on the paranormal, in the hopes that no one will ever have to be afraid of it again.Other people may be afraid for specific reasons, such as phobias, religious affinities, or frightening personal experiences in the paranormal. While we ourselves should try to not be afraid of the paranormal, we must also be sympathetic and understanding to those who are - they may have a legitimate reason for their fears.
Most people are skeptical of paranormal beliefs because there is no "rational" explanation for paranormal activity. Also, people are frightened by the idea that anything paranormal might exist.
Isn't it easy to attribute unexplained experiences to the power of magical beings? We have been doing that ever since we have been capable of being awed by things beyond our current grasp. We are really wired in some fundamentally illogical ways. A paranormal event occurs, and even stranger paranormal assumptions provide what is for some a satisfying answer. Go figure. Some religious teachings forbid dabbling in magic, while acknowledging the existence and power of one of the master magicians-- the devil.
