ghosts are BS. Just like psychics, demonic possessions, alien abductions, big foot, etc...
Nah, there are just ghosts hanging around trying to prevent any proofs from working.What people don't get about this crap is that, for over 40 years, the James Randi foundation has been offering a one million dollar prize to anyone who can demonstrate, under controlled, testable conditions, any type of paranormal ability or activity. Of course, not a single person has been able to collect this prize. A million bucks is a pretty damn good motivator. If any of this stuff wasn't nonsense, someone would have collected the money by now.
If we're able to create ghosts via some magical process following death, I'd expect things like cats, snakes, chickens, and so forth to also create ghosts as well. That'd suck for a critter that was dismembered or pureed for food. How would that haunting work out? Would they come back as a bunch of Ghostles'n'Bits or something?
Also, why aren't ghosts naked? Do the clothes and jewelry you die with also get stuck in some mystical afterlife for inanimate objects?
Our brains are capable of doing some pretty screwed up stuff, thanks to a good imagination, and some ancient fears, likely left there from a time when our species, or its predecessors, had to constantly be alert for some large creature that would love nothing more than to enjoy a delicious non-arboreal primate. If your brain is constantly hinting at you that there might be something "out there" that's trying to kill you, you're probably going to be more alert for possible predators, and thus more likely to survive.
yes, because logic is the last thing you should use when discussing the existence of ghosts.this post contains waaaaaaaay 2 much logikal thinks. please try again. kthnxbye.
I've never seen any evidence however I wouldn't be surprised if one day there could be some credible evidence to point toward paranormal activity. The universe is so vast and there are just so many things that we simply do not understand, and for us to preclude any possibility of such activity is, I think, quite arrogant.
I wouldn't say that I "believe" in ghosts, per se, but if one day I was shown credible evidence I wouldn't be entirely shocked either.
I think it's arrogant to think that the universe cares enough about you to make you a magical specter when you die, while every other animal on Earth lives and dies whilst scarcely disturbing the laws of physics.

Any time something paranormal is demonstrated to be real, repeatable and testable it no longer qualifies as being paranormal and simply becomes science. Conversely, if this never happens then we can never know for sure that the paranormal activity is real. It's kind of a catch-22.I've never seen any evidence however I wouldn't be surprised if one day there could be some credible evidence to point toward paranormal activity.

I think the problem that's commonly had with ghosts is that the sightings exclusively seem to happen outside of any controlled environment, as though sophisticated recording equipment scares away all of the paranormal stuff. Too often it seems to be seen by people who are half asleep, under the influence of some manner of drug, in a dark or unsettling environment, or some combination of these.Where in the hell did your rash of arrogant stupidity come from? To imply that the "universe cares" is just silly as hell; as if there is some sort of divine intelligence controlling the universe that can care?? Guess maybe if you were to use religion to describe that. Anyhow I never mentioned that only humans and not animals could have paranormal activities. Your slandering possible unexplained phenomena as being "magical specters" is no different than witch burnings of years past.
With the very likely possibilities of infinite parallel universes and/or multiple dimensions I am simply saying that there could be some natural phenomena explained by such quantum physics which we would otherwise identify as paranormal activity.
Again, to think that we somehow know or otherwise understand every possible activity occurring in the universe we live is the height of arrogance.
Get over it, dude.
