IMO, religion just isn't necessary at all for this sort of thing. If I had to label myself religion-wise I'd say agnostic, as I don't believe in particular gods, religions, messiahs, etc. I'm fascinated though by the idea of dimensions we can't perceive (or even wrap our minds around), paranormal things, astral travel, and that sort of stuff. I'm on the fence toward most of that as well. One should remember though that, at one point in time, magnetism was likely seen as something supernatual, magical, and totally unexplainable (and I'm sure many people who never saw it personally didn't believe it much), and as of the present day we have figured out a completely reasonable scientific explanation for magnetism. I wouldn't be surprised if, at some point in the future, we (humans) could possibly finally figure out of some of the things I listed above are in fact real, and how/why they occur. The religions are just there (IMO) until then to satisfy those who can't be satisfied with not knowing yet.
