Another of my copy'n'paste thingies. Though it is all straight from me.
Religion: I'm perfectly OK with people having religion, but find it impossible to believe any of it. I'm an atheist in that I don't believe in any great force out there which just made man -poof- come to life from nothingness. Where did matter come from? Don't know and why should I? They all sound like fairy tales anyways. I won't tell you there is no God, mostly because I think of God as an idea, not an entity. But you leave your beliefs to yourself and I'll keep my ideas. As for arguing what is wrong or right...I almost became enemies with my best friend over whether religion was right or wrong so I'm not going to get into that sh-tuff.
After Life: I'm quite content with the idea that there is nothingness in the end. I don't think it's scary because when I die I just stop thinking. So, no boredom, no thought. I could care less that I'm dead because my unconscious body wouldn't have any ability to realize it was dead. So, I don't really believe an afterlife does exist.
Superstition and Fantasy: I'm really anti-superstitious. Like that Bloody Marry crap and the chain mail that threaten you with death are just stupid. The fact that I hear about these things only proves that people don't use reason. Someone who claimed not to believe in ghosts sent me a chain mail for some dead girl coming to life and skinning you. I asked if they thought it was funny..They said no..So I asked why they passed it on..They said they were scared. It doesn't scare me..It annoys me. And not just those superstition's concerning death, but those concerning love too. As for fantasy, I'm not particularly fond of it. I'll roleplay with a slight magical mix in there or with mythical creatures that could actually be (A dragon? Sure! A unicorn as long as it doesn't fly and has chemical healing properties in it's horn? Plausible.), but strong fantasy properties gets pretty annoying most of the time.
Time Travel: As much as I wish I could go into the past and mess with medieval people and that crap I just know it can't happen. We can only go forward in time. Going backwards is basically destroying yourself instantly before you even get there. No, I don't mean that you'll age backward as you time travel to the past because that still means you could revisit your child years. I mean that you'd be moving faster than matter can possibly go. That's it.
Psychic/Telepathic Abilities: I normally wouldn't share on this, but Matasoga and a few other Gaian's have compelled me to share. I don't believe there is anything that can link two minds without some sort of mechanical intervention. You think you can tell what someone is thinking? You are probably looking at their face. In which case you are reading their facial expression to know what they feel. If you bothered to hone this skill you might have what people call a mind reading power. And what if you feel someone watching you? So what? I've felt that way too, but most every time I turn to check there's no one there watching. Maybe you hear a certain footstep sound similar in pattern and magnitude to that of someone you are familiar with. Maybe you don't realize these things, but I think a part of your brain that you use involuntarily is giving you these feelings. And then Deja vu. Think you saw this in a dream before? Take a look around. I could almost bet you that you are at a place you have visited before. School, home, and friend's house. You suddenly think "Woah! I saw into the future." but how long does this deja vu last? A few seconds at most, I'd say. And note that usually nothing out of the ordinary will happen in that time you experience it.

And note that usually nothing out of the ordinary will happen in that time you experience it.I have to disagree with you, sorry. I have not experienced a mind reader, but I'm not willing to say they don't exist. Anything is possible.
But, I have experienced other Pyschic happenings, for lack of a better word.
As for your other notions, I highly doubt time travel, but again, anything is possible.
I for one, love fantasy and unicorns and elves. And I'm not very superstitious, I hate chain mail as well.
As for religion, we are similiar, but not completely the same. I am willing to except a higher being when it is proven to me. Of That Beautiful Place..

I saw something in a dream once, it was a house.
I told my mom about it and she told me that the house is where my great grandmother used to live.
I had never seen or heard about it before then.
Was kind of exciting.
