How did the “legends and lore” forum become the “do you think they are real?” forum? :?

News to me.
but we as a community of werewolves believe in all thins that are believed to be 'Fantasy'
An assumption, since I highly doubt you've interviewed everyone on this site and found the above statement to be true. Though, since you're speaking from the perspective of a believer, it's possible that you've interviewed all of the one person it takes to validate your statement from your point of view.
For example, I know of a member of this site who believes that the Fey are real, and not the Tinkerbell and tooth fairy type either (though the Hellboy tooth fairies probably merit inclusion), yet I'm reasonably sure she doesn't believe in Brain Moles that inhabit our skulls and use us as puppets to their macabre play. So, a member of the community that doesn't believe in all things that are seen as fantasy.

Fantasy is a subjective term.
but any in this community that doesn't believe should be running away right now but if u do believe check out my poll :)
According to your poll, the unbelievers outnumber the believers. Who is doing the running exactly?

My sincerest apologies for bursting your bubble, but erroneous hyperbole in the form of assumptions outside of the purview of the speaker just irritates me. That's not sarcasm, I know how important it is to believe in something.

Dude. You DON'T believe in Brain Moles?!? You must be enlightened and purge yourself of their evil fuzzy puppeteering ways!

Obviously werewolves don't exist, but clearly Manbearpig is one of the greatest threats to public safety there is. Fortunately Al Gore is on it so I'm not worried. I used to think Gore was kinda out there when he was always going on about that "global warming" stuff (like anybody would ever believe in that), but it's reassuring that he's got the Manbearpig thing under control.

No, I'm not too worried about a werewulf sneaking into my bedroom and biting me any time soon. Werewulves aren't physically possible anyway. I'm far more concerned with the nutcases who think they're vampires.

Really guys? Believing that a werewolf or a vampire might get you while you sleep is just silly.
It's the zombies that are the real threats! That is why I don't sleep anymore......that, and the evil clowns.....

You know i think it is all good to believe in some things. But you know what there is a right way and a wrong way to go about it. Chicky i have read some of your posts and i'm really thinking your in the wrong place. Don't get me wrong, i'm a believer BUT when you come to a place and you are new and have no established reputation you might want to keep the viva la revolution stuff on the low or your going to get chased out.


P.S. You guys please click my eggs i'm afraid they aren't going to make it. They only got two days left.

I'll just take the poll and the question on their own merits, which is what I feel is best to add a constructive response to this thread (constructive is good, no?).

It all comes down to two questions, for me.

(i) Do you believe in werewolves on Earth, here, right now?

I don't know, I find it hard to believe because of the evidence against the idea, I'm open to it and I consider it a possibility, but at the same time I file it under 'highly improbable'.

(ii) Can werewolves exist by grace of future knowledge or alien understanding (in other words, forms of Science we don't yet understand)?

I definitely think that's possible, it would be the height of arrogance to believe that some form of life out there hadn't achieved something that humanity can't yet. I believe that human knowledge is a great guideline for understanding the Universe, but it's not the be all and end all factual nature of said Universe.

So I believe that werewolves could quite easily be out there, somewhere. There are so many possibilities to consider with this, dimensions we don't even know exist yet, another people with a greater understanding of the Universe than we currently have, what we may discover in the future that may make our knowledge today look laughable...

There are too many possibilities to discount. So I strongly believe in the possibility, if that makes sense.

yes, or this one idea i keep hearing from the super believers, on other sites, that in the years 2012, that a great evolution will happen, causing every living thing to change, including the earth of course, but we'll never know if it's possible until that time.....Though, i wouldn't hold my breath. still, it is a different idea.

How on earth could anyone here actually press "no"??? If you don't believe then: "WHY THE HECK ARE YOU ALL HERE?!" Just one thing I'd like to know....Because if you are only interested in werewolves for the facts, then I think that is so the opposite of patriotism because I love werewolves sooooooo much they have to exist, right? Even it's only in my own mind.... I just feel kind of insulted how that there are still fewer believers than knowers.....if you know what I mean. If the werewolf is liberation, then why are you all doubting? I've just taken a hard blow.....owww.

There's an entire ballpark between liking werewolves, and leaving your window open at night in the hope that a werewolf wanders in, and yet another ballpark between that and genuinely believing that you, or others, can transform and going out of your way to act accordingly.
Additionally, the werewolf does not represent liberation for everyone. For some people it's the exact opposite, symbolizing a lack of control, a lack of freedom, a curse rather than a gift.
