If by "... one of them." you mean Christian? Then, yes. Though, I classify myself as 'Christain-other' because I don't belong any church or Christian sect. Thinking about it, I'm more aligned with southern baptist than anything else.

Since it's almost/already Halloween, I thought I would ask:

Do you believe in Ghosts?

No

If there are spirits that don't have a body, they are in transition and completely irrelevant until they actually get one. Force = mass * acceleration if you don't have mass you are unable to affect the material world.

Kinetic energy = 1/2 mass* velocity^2. Without mass you can't even possess kinetic energy. It takes mass to be relevant.

There are no rules or logic in beliefs tho. You can believe what you want. It's only delusion when you mistake beliefs for facts.

It’s rather intelligent to be afraid of some things, like earthquakes. It keeps you safe. It’s also good to ignore certain fears when they stop you from doing things you know you should do.

I find there many people outside of California have a really big fear of earthquakes to the point where they won't visit places (such as California) I get it about some areas, but we rarely have earthquakes that are of any significance and to me there are many other areas that have severe issues that are much more concerning.
 
Neil Degrasse Tyson has a class where he teaches his methods of scientific thought. If anyone takes that class let me know what you think. I would just sign right up but no time for it right now.

I would be more concerned about fires, power outages and air pollution. I've been in an earthquake before, it feels very strange, catches you completely off guard.

Many areas aren't at risk for any of that. I think often people see California as much smaller than it is.
