What is the Deal with Mermaids?

Question

Seriously? Why not something cooler like Zombie or Werewolf, or Golem or Elf?!

And can any of you actually prove that mermaids and magic are real? I'll leave Yahoo Answers forever if you can provide me with ONE piece of scientific evidence for magic of any sort. Not Penn and Teller magic like you would consider real magic.

Answer 1

MARTIN G YU ARE ONE PPEPLE THAT DOES NOT BLIVE IN MAGIK FAK YU !!  

Answer 2

Oh suuure! Abracadabra...and presto: nothing!

Answer 3

Martin G magick is REAL. before january 4, 2008 i didn't believe in magick, but now i do after a psychic woman gave me an haunted ring bonded with spirit. i had sleep parazlye 3 to 4 times a week. (normall i have sleep parazlye 0 to 8 times a year) one time i saw the twins spirits in my dream. since the woman told me their names, i said their name. the spirit i'm looking at made a smile. soon they disappeared and right then i woke up.

at that time i'm not sure if they were really the twins spirits. i'm still not sure if these are real or not since i have never experience it before. couple days later  i ask the woman how these two twins look like in a way to find out if these spirits are real and if she is really psychic and her magick ability. she described them correctly. dark color hair, dark color eyes, black clothes and light color skin.

ok so i have another haunted item from a woman

i use blood and s***n to bond with this spirit. it's kinda like a gift to her.

2nd night after the spiritual bonding. when i fell asleep, my mind became awaken, but i have no control of my physical body. i couldn't move my physical body.

while i still have ESP, i could feel the temperature changing.

it became a little cold, but felt very comfortable

couple weeks later i began to learn to move my arms during ESP. although i felt like i'm actually moving my real physical arms, but it's not.

i don't know if it's spiritual arms of mine. this is just a guess. i do not know if that is possible.

one time when i have ESP i moved my hands to the side of the thighs, but when i woke up, one of my hand's on top of my stomach and the other one above my head.

sometime when i'm on my bed, trying to meditate . i'm on my bed, not alseep yet. suddenly i lost control of my body and i could feel my jaw open (i had my jaw close when i meditate). i could feel large amount of energy on my forehead and the top of my head. too much energy for me gave me a little headache.

there is a time when i felt large amount of energy targeting the left side of my noise. it was difficult to breathe and i was trying hard to breathe. finally i have to struggle to wake up.

couple months later i began to gain control of my physical eyes. when i have ESP, i tried to open my phyical eyes. most of the time i could only open a little gap with my left eye and i could see the light street from my window. i open my eyes to see if the spirit appear in front of me.

another time, when i began to enter ESP condition, i felt light energy or static on my left thigh then spreading up to my abs, down to my lower thigh. it even spread to my p***s o.O weird........

after that time, i began to feel energy inside my body when i eat, shower, cooking, reading, etc... (i'm not sure about the toilet part...)

there's more that i have experience with my 20+ spirits

martin g if you don't believe in spirit, magick, demon.

i'm not sure about vampire, mermaid, werewolf. i have never encounter them before, but i refuse to say they're fake

Answer 4

okay. because of the title of the question i was expecting a jerry seinfeld joke. ah well.

zombie? thats not cool! that would suck. youd be a brainless lubering heap. whats the highpoint of your day as a zombie? UUUGGHH! eat brains. who would want that?

elf? so pointy ears? whopdeedo. you can poke someone with your ears and cause alot of pain. sure theres the whole magic side and eternal life bit but i really just wanted to poke at the ears.

a golem? thats just a big spiece of stoneware enslavement, see zombie for further details.

werewolf? now were talking! that has the whole lightside-darkside complex that everyone loves in a good story, not to mention its got a certain gothical charm about it.

i have no idea where all these mermaid fans have suddenly jumped from. is there a new TV show or something? but asking for magic to transmute ones body is both unrealistic and downright dangerous. seriously! just take some swimming lessons and leave it at that. do not mess with magic!

as for scientific evidence of a mermaid spell...im afraid you've got me there. i havent got anything like that in my notes. mythbusted.

Answer 5

I would rather be like Ursula than the little Mermaid, because Ursula had tentacles and tentacles > fish tail

Answer 6

Deal is the is there only the Little Mermaid Dysney!

Answer 7

Because some prissy girls are freaked out by zombies and werewolves!

and if they saw the little mermaid as a kid, how can you not?

Answer 8

Oh come on now.. Stop being such a wuss lol, people likes different things and believes in different things.  And I also like things you would consider 'cooler' but it shouldn't matter.  Everyone on here isn't the same type of person so I don't think you should criticize them just because they think or believe differently than you do.  It's not really fair.  This is a community place where people share their questions and ideas, so if anything, you should expect this kind of thing.  If you don't like it, whether or not it's real just pay no mind and be on your merrily way.  I'm sure it'd be best for both you and the asker of whatever question.  Anyway, you look just as much of a kid as the people questioning the things you seem to dislike, just for complaining about it.  Seriously, can't you at least try being a little more considerate toward others?

Answer 9

i read an article that was about mermaids, tho it was 25 years ago,

in 1511 near the Solomon islands sailors reported finding 2 children

boy and a girl in a sea cave,gravely ill,reported to have blue and green skin,with tails and not feet.

it said when taken aboard ship they died instantly,was thought to be because of the sun.

Answer 14

Drunk, Lonely, Seasick, Hungry, Scurvy, Sailors of Olden days had vast imaginations. What else could they do in their spare time? It had to be immensely boring out at sea with no Cable TV, Cell Phone, iPod, P2P, Xbox 360, Google, e-mail, or Playboy.

And I'm sure they enjoyed telling fascinating stories to the townsfolk when they returned to their home ports.  

And so the stories of Mermaids, Sea Serpents, Monsters, and such became legend. To top it off we all know that any lie grows taller the more it is passed from person to person, town to town, generation to generation, history book to history book, church to church, and docudrama to docudrama.

Who knows, maybe the first report of a Mermaid was really just that some sun warped sailor saw a strange fish in the fog, and by the time he got back to home port, all of a sudden it was a Mermaid he saw.

Lies are the fabric of society, the best thing you can do is learn what are lies, and what is truth, and then understand for what purpose lies are created and distributed.

Answer 15

In some cultures mermaids are more sinister than those portrayed in disney. The sirens called men out to sea just to watch them drown and suffer. In some shore-side communities the mermaid (of course a different name is used) is a hideous monster that will kill and consume you savagely. It all depends on which angle it is seen from.

Answer 16

lol what's with the flirting?

Answer 17

Answer 18

I like vampires...

Answer 19

why not...something...cooler...

are you 13 or something? stop being immature;mythology is a great part of civilization. If you are questioning memaids, why not question your "god" as well?

Answer 20

dude; wtf.

i love vampries :]  (twilight saga by stephenie meyer)

but, some people like mermaids. its just basic mythology. and why is it such a big deal to you. you act like its a sin. maybe it is to "your god"

Answer 21

do you know people who are obsessed with mermaids are typically hermaphrodites

Answer 22

No, although i cant prove that mermaids are real however it all depends on what a person likes. Some people like mermaids and others like zombies, werewolves, etc. Hope this helps =]

Answer 23

I wouldn't mind being a werewolf, enough with the mermaids though nobody want to be with a mermaid thats why they don't exist no offspring.

Answer 24

Nothing she is a fish for me that's all :P they don't have lungs  

Answer 25

Shaman: part-time religious practitioner who is believed to have access to supernatural power that may be used for the benefit of specific clients as in healing or divining.

The go into a trance, shamans may send their spirits on errands in service to their clients, or they may invite powerful spirits to enter their bodies and give them power.  Shamans experience the ecstasy of visions of a world not seen by ordinary eyes.  Shamans are quite capable of using their rituals to harm as well as help others.  Shamans are best known for their skill at manipulating the supernatural to cure illness.
