The synchronicities and serendipities are proliferating now everywhere, even in the desolate nooks and crannies of self-proclaimed skeptics' lives.

“The pattern sees you before you see it—slipping between moments, between thoughts. By the time you notice, it’s everywhere. Some doors open on their own—some were never closed.”― William F. Blume

Or... I just do enough crosswords and you talk about UFOs enough that the two were eventually bound to intersect, just as a matter of simple probability.

Randomness and design are really just matters of perspective. Stand too close to a painting and all you'll see is chaos and meaninglessness. Back away from it and you'll see the emergent pattern--the connecting dots, the geometry of forms, and the overall coalescent symmetry. What is random and coincidental in our lives at one level becomes meaningful and portentous on another. Both can be true at the same time. Every event in your life really happens, while also only happening for you.

People who find great meaning in mere coincidence are bereft of meaning.

Finding meaning in nothing is precariously close to finding meaning in everything.

I’ll make one up…..Explaining paranormal with more paranormal is like trying to save the boat by pumping out less water than what’s leaking in..

“You cannot go on 'explaining away' for ever: you will find that you have explained explanation itself away. You cannot go on 'seeing through' things for ever. The whole point of seeing through something is to see something through it.”― C.S. Lewis, The Abolition of Man

C.S. Lewis is not talking about UFOs, dipshit.

He's talking about anything people habitually try to "explain away", which includes miracles as well as all anomalous phenomena..
