[textualdeviance]

In God?: No. I don't believe in a conscious, singular deity.

In ghosts?: No, but I do think people leave a bit of their essence/energy behind when they leave the world, and that most of their energy passes to another living thing.

In aliens?: Yes

In Bigfoot?: No, not in the Missing Link sense, because that's not really scientific.

In makeup?: Stage makeup, yes. I used to like playing with it when I was younger, and on very special occasions I will wear some, as a sort of stage makeup, but these days it's rather pointless.

In faeries?: no

In ESP?: I think some people are capable of broadcasting and/or receiving brain waves, much like radio waves, and therefore can be somewhat clairvoyant. I see this particularly with close relatives, which would make sense, if their DNA is similar enough to have similar "frequencies"

In superstition?: Well, yes. I don't believe in tempting fate, but I don't go to great lengths to avoid stepping on cracks, etc.

In equal rights for gays?: Anyone who doesn't is not someone I would even give the time of day to.

In equal rights for women?: I wish we could just totally disregard gender. That said, I do call myself a feminist.

In psychics?: See the ESP answer above. I also think there probably are some people who are instinctively tuned into things like body language and vocal cues to be able to tell what a person is thinking or feeling to enough of a degree to be able to speak to it.

In appearance?: Yes, but only where appearance is chosen, like with a sense of style, or how someone carries themselves. Clothing choices do tend to say a lot about the person. Some guy in Dockers, a polo shirt, leather loafers and perfectly groomed hair will probably get a little less of my respect than someone in a t-shirt and ratty jeans. Likewise some fluffy bimbo in glitter and platform heels isn't someone I'd waste my time with either.

In auras?: Eh. I think we radiate a bit of heat and electrical energy.

In true love?: No. But I do believe false love exists.

In happy endings?: The only true "ending" is the end of life. If you've been happy up until then, and you die without pain or undue grief, then that could be considered a happy ending.

In abortions?: When necessary, yes. But I'd much rather advocate the scrupulous use of birth control and the practice of non-intercourse sex to avoid pregnancy in the first place.

In Santa?: Nope. Christmas isn't really my holiday. The idea is nice, but the reality of it never really lives up to those Hallmark cards.

In soulmates?: Yes. I've had a few. But I've never had one yet that has lasted for a very long time.

In magic?: Of the David Copperfield kind, sure. Of the magick kind, eh.. I think some people can focus their will enough to alter their behavior in a way which can influence other things and people.

In cloning?: I believe cloning technology is useful in the sense that it could be used to regrow limbs or organs, etc, but I don't believe in cloning other full beings.

In fraggles?: Nah. But they're cute.

In werewolfs?: Nope.

In vampires?: Only those who play at it.

In miracles?: No

In existing thylacines?: Que?

In nessie?: There's supposedly a monster like this in Lake Tahoe, too. Eh. I think any large dinosaur type creatures would have died of old age by now at least.

In existing dinosaurs?: No, but there are some very cool descendants of them around.

In interracial marriages?: Yes. Also in interspecies, so long as the two species in question are sentient, intelligent beings capable of informed communication and consent.

In adoptions?: Yes

In saving the rainforests?: Certainly

In saving dying species?: Yes, but only where man's intervention has caused that to happen. Otherwise, it's mucking with evolution.

In the human race?: I think there are some good humans, but not the majority, unfortunately.

In recycling?: I'm probably about a 60% recycler. I do what I can when I can.

In blue tigers?: Only the edible kind.

In tattoos?: I have two of them

In plastic surgery?: Only to correct serious defects

In love in general? Oh yeah

In animal rights?: Yes. I don't think humans should exploit animals only for their own pleasure. Limited medical research is acceptable, however.

In the death penalty?: Yes, as a form of euthanasia, rather than punishment, and I think it's applied incorrectly right now. I think it should be limited to people like Manson or Dahmer. People who simply have zero hope of rehabilitation or a productive life.
