True...very true. Make silly claims that you KNOW are not true about what you are, post silly pictures and bad photomanipulations of yourself, and you would have a great alibi to fall back on if anyone started making claims about you being real. If a photo got leaked out and posted online, you can just claim that was a photomanip you did, or paid someone else to do for you, and brag about how cool it is. No one in their right mind would think you are lying and really are a werewolf after all.

...it's almost fool proof...
Unless the laptop you're using happens to be a werewolf.

Just because we don't know if something is there or not... doesn't mean it isn't there at all.

There are some people saying the werewolf exixt in Hungary and that the goverment there knows about it. They are said protecting the secret as MIB or something.

There has even been rumors of pics circulating on the internet, showing a werewolf in the hungarian woods. Its said to be blurry. I havent seen it myself so i can not comment if its "true" or not.

I have also read two books by Linda Godfrey about the Bray Road Beast. IF the werewolfs exist that MAY be one. Strange thing no one ever has caught it on camera.

This might make me Mr.. Unpopular from here on, but I'm a little worrie dby the sheer amount of people who think werewolves really exist.

Fantasizing about them existing is one thing. ACTUALLY thinking they exist...is well....a little scary.

Sorry guys, it's just my opinion.

I can't say that I do, but I'm still open to the idea that they could possibly exist or have existed at one point. The world is an infinite mystery.

It is more likely they exsist somewhere in the universe, but not here, The point of the matter is the universe is so big, and infinite, that there is a high probability that anything you have ever imagined anything you have ever dreamed exsists or has happened somewhere. :wink:

yeah, and that whole thing goes into quantum mechanics (which can be fun)

but yeah, i would prolly have to agree with fenrir on that one.

I voted "no"... The thing is, I read the question as just being "do you think they exist". And in my case... no I don't. At least not in the classic "someone who turns very hairy once every four weeks or so" sense of the word.

There is a right time and place for believing that werewolves do exist... but that time is the hour and a half you spend in a movie theatre watching them.

*Ugh...my computer crashed after writing a long message again, before I could post it*

I'm with Matt.

I like to remain a very open minded person, and I believe that a great many things that seem fantastic to us really are possible...but I disagree with the notion that just because some things CAN exist, it means that they likely DO exist. ...because most of the time you can look around and see that they quite clearly do not.

It is physically possible for there to be another human being on this earth alive at this moment that shares my exact genetic code, right down to the last chromosome, but even so, I can say with utmost confidence that said genetic clone of me does NOT exist.

It may very well be entirely possible for a being to exist that shares most of the qualities that we normally associate with Werewolves, (excluding things that really are impossible, like mass discrepancy and so forth), but if you ask me if there are any Human beings in the world who can transform into Wolves, or Gestalt-like alternate forms and back again like in the movies, and various sources of mythology and fiction, my answer is obviously NO...of course not. We can all see that they don't, and we should all be well aware of all the reasons why.

Fantasy is fun and all, but seriously...you know better than that. (At least you should) Werewolves are the product of human imagination...nothing more.



...and for goodness sake, Therians and Otherkin are NOT werewolves. Whatever is in your head, or your soul, is what it is and is not what it is not. A Wolfs mind/soul in a Humans body, and a Human with a Human mind that can take on the physical shape of a Wolf are two completely different things.

Well put Vuldari. :D

And I totally agree with Matt as well.

I think its mindboggling to see people urging for proof on werewolves when most of them believes in a God up in heaven that has no proof of existing what so ever.

To answer the question: Yes, I do believe in werewolves. But I have to note with that, that I do believe that there is a difference between werewolves and shapeshifters.

I'm having a little bit trouble viewing your post...

But just for the record: say, if you are Christian, would you like it if I said God is just a product of human imagination?

no but i would allow you to say it, as you should allow vuldrai to voice his opinion

Yes, but if my opinion would be "Christians are cunts" then that is offending. That is my point.

o well, if thats how you feel then thats thats, but i dont see the point, your seeing we should allow people to belive what they want to right? well that techincal points to my side since that means that vuldrai should be allowed to say what he wants for werewolf belivers because thats what he belives in

It's true that many people would be massively offended by that statement. I've known and lived near a number of people who would tar and feather you if you said that in front of them, Morkulv. However, if their belief in Christianity is so threatened or shaken by such a statement, then their beliefs probably weren't that strong in the first place. Like those Christians that protested the Da Vinci Code. If you know in your heart that the story's "truth" about Christ is false, then what harm is a little fiction?

The same can apply to those who believe in real werewolves. I particularly don't (I'm just a fan of werewolf fiction/movies), and neither do some of the members here. But for any of those who do, if they're offended by what Vuldari said, then they may have some pretty big doubts as well. It's those that aren't offended that truly believe, because they have real faith, and virtually nothing can change their minds.

I will say this about werewolves and other myths. Just about 90% of the contents of modern myths and legends are fiction, but they all tend to have some basis of fact, in one way or another.
