In summary, the debate over whether science can explain the paranormal is ongoing. While some believe that science can eventually uncover the truth behind paranormal phenomena, others argue that the very nature of the paranormal makes it beyond the scope of scientific study. However, there have been attempts to use scientific methods to study paranormal events, such as through parapsychology and quantum physics. Ultimately, the question of whether science can explain the paranormal remains a complex and controversial one.

The paranormal are interesting. But by its very definition, they defy the approach of science. There is no scientific explanation or experiment confirming the paranormal. That doesn't mean it's not real, but it means science cannot investigate them or confirm them to be true.
