Or the fantastic with only ancedotal evidence for support.
Hmmm....one is likely, requires no physical evidence, and manifests itself in an organism that has been shown to suffer from mental disorders in a good percentage of its population. The other is incredible, should have physical evidence, and requires the presence of an unknown entity that has never been proven to exist. I think I will side with #1.

Before you state there are too many cases, you are wrong. How many cases? You stated millions earlier with nothing to back up that claim. I have heard Hopkins say thousands, with nothing to back up that claim. What is being discussed is a small percentage of the population that suffers from mental issues that manifest itself in this way. Considering that this is probably a percentage similar to that which seeks psychiatric help for various other issues, I don't think it is a stretch to suggest this is nothing out of the ordinary.
