This should have been in Unexplained Mysteries, I supposed!! Haha
It has nothing to do with 'religion'....but, spirituality...but there is no differentiation here, so...
Science-talk is also welcome.
And sorry I meant for only one "?" in the subject.

Thanks

I believe that all super natural phenomena (if they actually exist) can be explained in terms of God, angels, and demons. It's possible that ghosts exist since there is at least one mention of a ghost in the old testament (though I personally have never seen one). My wife swears "la llorona" exists. Life on other planets may exist though I don't think we or they will ever have the technology to reach each other. I believe in evolution, but I believe that it was guided by God.

Ok, my Concept #1. All, and I mean specks and the invisible are all basically or
at their essence... love.

Concept #2. There is a Being beyond our imagination that was 'the Only One',
so needed or wanted out of desire, adventure, experience, simple interest and exploration,
more Super Nova's of Bliss (and many other reasons) created
matter and us and other dimensions beyond our comprehension...ever expanding...
because this One Being could and why not?

#3. From my personal experience, so far...This Superior Being is nothing if not feeeeelings.

#4. That at the core of everything, I mean everything, little dust floating in a sunbeam,
exists because of this Being and would not if not for this Creator.

I may come up with more after coffee.

I'll share a little more of my view of reality.
I'm not yet convinced that free-will actually exists. I believe that bad thoughts come from demons and that good thoughts come from God. The only thing a human is capable of doing is realizing that they like or agree with the thoughts or they reject or disagree with the thoughts. God uses circumstances to convince us or to show us why we should like or dislike a thought or an action and this is how he guides us to do and to want to do good things. He is incapable of preventing evil in some circumstances because it is the only way to convince people to desire to do good things.

We are very much like puppets that can be bent by either God or demons.

Demons...I think they exist...not in my world, or around me so far.

But the EGO (the ego-mind, the lower ego self whatever)...now
THAT is the devil...hahahaha.

Thanks cuja1.
