The Mandela Effect

Do you believe in the so-called Mandela Effect - a phenomenon in which many people remember events or facts differently from how evidence shows them?

The Mandela Effect is one of the most fascinating phenomena of modern culture. Thousands of people around the world remember things almost identically, even though they never actually happened. A different logo, a different movie ending, a different date of a famous person’s death. Could it be that our reality and consciousness are capable of shifting between parallel worlds? Scientists explain it as memory errors and autosuggestion, while internet users see it as proof of a multiverse, manipulations in history, or CERN experiments. So who’s really tinkering with our reality – ourselves, or something science doesn’t know about or refuses to admit?

Karma, curses, and spells

Do you believe in karma, curses, spells, or that someone’s envy could have caused something in your life to “go wrong”?

Do you believe in karma, curses, and spells? For some, these are old superstitions from the days when people feared witches and blamed their failures on the “evil eye.” For others, they are real phenomena explaining strange coincidences, sudden illnesses, or streaks of bad luck. The modern world mocks magic, yet the internet is full of energy-cleansing rituals, protective amulets, and theories about karmic retribution. Psychologists will say it’s self-suggestion, while esotericists claim that energy always seeks balance. But why do we sometimes feel as if an invisible force is working against us?

The Great Flood

Since almost every culture and its ancient stories include the motif of a great flood, do you think such an event really took place in Earth's history?

The motif of the great flood has fired people’s imagination for thousands of years across all continents. In Sumerian myths, the Bible, Indian epics, or the legends of South American Indians, almost the same scenario appears – the wrath of the gods, a water catastrophe, and a handful of survivors who begin the world anew. Is it possible that humanity preserved the memory of one real cataclysm that truly swept across the Earth? Scientists speak of local floods after the Ice Age, while conspiracy theorists point to ancient civilizations drowned by the ocean. So where does this consistency of myths come from? Is it a collective memory of a global tragedy, or merely a symbolic tale of humanity’s cleansing?

School vs. Teen Sleep Rhythm

Since teenagers naturally have a delayed sleep phase and fall asleep later, do early school start times negatively affect their health?

More and more studies show that teenagers function on a different circadian rhythm than adults – their brains naturally “shift” toward later sleeping and waking hours. Yet most schools still start classes at dawn, forcing students to fight against their biological clocks. The result? Chronic sleep deprivation, decreased concentration, depression, and growing rebellion against a system that ignores science. Is this merely a matter of discipline and “nighttime” social media use, or proof that education fails to keep up with biology? Supporters of change call for a “sleep revolution,” while opponents see it as youth laziness. Who’s right? Take part in the poll and decide for yourself.

Life after death and reincarnation

Do you believe that life after death or reincarnation exists?

Life after death and reincarnation are topics that constantly ignite emotions and challenge the limits of human understanding. For some, death is only a passage – a door to a new incarnation or a spiritual dimension. For others, it is the end, with no return and no point in searching further. Memories of past lives, near-death experiences, and mysterious energetic phenomena fuel imagination and belief that consciousness does not extinguish. Does judgment after death, reincarnation, or the illusion of eternity created by our desperate brain truly exist? Or perhaps each of these visions contains a fragment of truth? Answer the poll and decide what you really believe in.

The influence of alcohol on a person

Does a person under the influence of alcohol show their true “self”?

Does alcohol really show who we are, or does it rather create the illusion of a “true self”? Some say that after a few drinks, a person’s real nature comes out – hidden aggression, honesty, or sensitivity that’s invisible in everyday life. Others believe it’s just chemical chaos in the brain that removes inhibitions but also destroys rational thinking. That’s why one person becomes the life of the party after a drink, while another turns into a monster. Psychologists talk about the “mask effect,” which disappears under the influence of alcohol, but it’s hard to tell whether that’s true or just an excuse for behavior we’d be ashamed of when sober. So is a drunk person being themselves, or someone they never wanted to meet?
