Do you believe in ghosts?
What evidence is there that ghosts exist? What evidence would it take to make it rational to conclude that ghosts exist?
I think ghosts are something people want to believe in because that would mean there is life after death, and people fear death.

in order to understand you must first experiment with the tools used to provide such insighttranquilizer wrote:There is no evidence that ghosts exist, and I've never seen anything closely resembling a stereotypical view of a ghost. In my opinion, those who say they have seen and photographed a ghost are either lying or have hallucinated.

I fully agree it is an open mind that allows you to see, as well as the tools of the trade.strike wrote:in order to understand you must first experiment with the tools used to provide such insighttranquilizer wrote:There is no evidence that ghosts exist, and I've never seen anything closely resembling a stereotypical view of a ghost.

You cannot disprove a negative, so if you can't prove it does exist, you also can't prove it does not exist.

Like the whole Akashic field/theory of everything. If the things that we do have an effect, if auras exist, etc. Then we have an influence on our environment. If our influence is pervasive enough how could we not leave behind traces of ourselves after we die? What kind of an end is death anyway? Brain death is different than physical death, so in essence we could, as the old Irish toast says, "Be in heaven for two hours before the devil knows we're dead" assuming the devil walks the earth, as they say.
I don't believe in the devil, but I believe in people
People have personal power and they can do whatever they want assuming they know how to use it.
