Bullshit GZ, that looks photoshopped.welcome to the world of not knowing what gz posted
You disappoint me.
I mean come on do you honestly think that with 100's of people dieing every day that not more people say they see Ghosts, If they were real we'd know by now.
I dont have and experience with ghost, but I have a friend who told a story about when he was little. He was in his bed, and in the corner of his room, he saw a little girl he didnt know. He covered his head with his blankets because he was scared, and he removed his blanket from his face, and the girl was about 1 foot away from him.There's a scientific explanation for that, and it can even be replicated in a lab.
His dad works in this kind of stuff, exorcisms, driving spirits out of houses, etc.
Im kinda sketchy on the whole spirits thing, im going to have to do more reasearch and ask more questions.
Oh now fuck you. Did you not, read my post just above yours? Leave the ghosts alone man. No-one is busting ghosts when I'm around. They're the most beautiful beings. You don't even know man.
There's a scientific explanation for that, and it can even be replicated in a lab.Yah, thats "sleep paralysis, Its more frequent than most people think, it happens once to about 1 out of 4 people, usually in their teenage years, but for some very unlucky people, it happens once, and then happens again and again. Some people see a pale face right in front of them, like a skull or something like that, others see large spiders dangling in front of their face. I read somewhere that this might be part of what caused myths about vampires and the like (a huge collection of different things created these myths, apparently). I read on a website dedicated to night terrors and sleep paralysis many horror stories, like a woman that dreamed the ceiling was coming down to crush her, suddenly snapped out of sleep paralysis and almost jumped out a window.
Basically, it happens when you're brain is still partly asleep.
People who have this happen to them usually lose control of most of their body, but can still look around and such as the human body shuts down much of it's motor skills when you sleep to stop you from acting out your dreams and hurting yourself (night terrors).
When your brain is still not fully conscious, or fully asleep, you can see all kinds of weird shit, though many claim to see an old woman dressed in black that stands over them until they blink or look away.
Unlike lucid dreams, people swear that these things actually happened as they feel awake and they appear to be happening in the real world.
Do you HONESTLY BELIEVE that when you die, you just dissapear?Yes. I honestly belive that when i die, i ultimately die. I rot and vanish. We are no different to let's say, animal's or even bacterias. And according to our belief's THEY don't go to heaven, right? It's only human's right or w/e.
I believe in ghost, why not? There's tons of evidence of people seeing ghost out there. But first of all think about it like this? Do you HONESTLY BELIEVE that when you die, you just dissapear? I'm having a hard time believing that. There's even some evidence of ghost in the bible. But yeah, I believe in ghosts, there's just too much proof out there that they exist.
No proof? You don't know that because you've clearly not researched the topic. Or you'd know there's tons of "proof" out there. There are several convincing stories out there written by people who have actually seen ghost. There's even stories where things happen that only a ghost could do. And do you honestly believe out of the millions of stories of people claiming to see ghost, that none of them are true? Yes, I suppose those milllions of people where just seeing things huh. Let's put it this way, in our world, things don't just move on their own, you want to put science in here, then you'd know that it's impossible for something to move on it's own. But people have claimed to have seen this. There are even several articles about people claiming to have seen ghosts or strange things. And another thing with Science is, how the hell could science proof the existence of ghosts? That's beyond me.There is actually no proof, and all "ghost research" is bullshit "science" usually made up by the people who "research" ghosts. The EVIDENCE (HARD FACT!) for many ghost advocates is a group fo beardy men walk into a ghost-zone and say "oh did you feel that... I felt a tingle!". A lot of ghost visions and experiences, can someone please buy me a Kaworu nagisa statue ( http://animenewsi.com/index.php?itemid=10341&catid=245) it is very cute and I really want it, that have been researched by real intillectuals (not large bearded men who dress only in black) tends to show that it is more to do with our subconcious. Subconcious is great, it allows us to move things without realising we're moving them (such as how Ouija boards work), and it allows us to see things that may not be there.
edit: Time is isn't it's own dimension as it is completely relative to the decay rate of whatever atomic material it is based against.Time is a dimension (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacetime).
Time is a dimension (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacetime).no, time and space are their own dimension, time itself is not a spatial dimension.
In the end, you either believe it or you don't believe it. Heck, disbelieving in the supernatural in our society is cmmon and most people wouldn't even be convinced if they SAW a ghost, because they were raised to believe "ghost" and "UFO's" and all that shit were just fiction.
No proof? You don't know that because you've clearly not researched the topic. Or you'd know there's tons of "proof" out there.
Also, saying THE BIBLE!! has ghost evidence in it isn't credible (since, well, a lot of us are atheists and the fact that many people agree many parts of the Bible are "metaphors".)Hey, this isn't right. The bible says it, so it MUST be true! /sarcasm
Another story. My friend Alison. When she was around 15, she became a christian. She would read her bible at night and pray. She said for two weeks, she was troubled by a "spirit"...just listen.
One night she was walkin outside, around her house. She was about 50 feet from her home, walking towards it. She turned around and saw the dark outling of a figure about 30 feet from her.
She turned around and kept walking. She turned again and the figure was about 5 feet from her...she ran inside and told her parents. They didn't know what to think.
The next night, she was woken in the middle of the night. She went downstairs to get a drink, and she swears that by the blinds the figure was staring at her. She fell down and started crying uncontrollably. Her parents ran downstairs and consoled her. She says her father walked around the house with a bible in hand, repeating "This is a Godly home, you have no business here".
She hasn't seen it since...
I would argue my points further, but they would just get shot down, I don't think many go by the Bible here.The bible is such a bad book as far as I am concerned. It is chop full with so many irrationalities. Noah's ark, a spiritual god impregnating a virgin to give birth to Jesus, creation of the earth and cosmos by a god, etcetera. In my eyes, religion takes too simplistic of an approach to explain an ever complicated universe. Anyways, back to ghosts. Ok, they do fascinate me. A lot of things do, mainly the unexplainable because they pique my interest and curiousity. There are some things that make me think regarding their existance. For example, if they are a human illusion, then why do they appear in certain places? If a ghost-skeptic family were to move into a house, unknowing of it's past, then why would they see the ghosts? Maybe their is some kind of energy in the air that causes this, if so then why is it manifested into a human form? The more haunted areas tend to have a more brutal past as well. I'm not trying to argue and side with their resistance neccessarily, but those things have always made me wonder.
Wait a second you flat out said "the bible sucks because it's so irrational" and then said "yeah there might be ghosts though"There MIGHT be, that's it, but again I am pretty sure they aren't in the way as what we think, so quite possibly not. What we interpret as "ghosts", I'm sure, have a good scientific explanation to them. Besides that, the bible is a whole lot worse. It takes bullshit to a new level, and people by the masses believe in it.
I mean I don't believe the bible either but seriously

While going vegan (and raw) has improved my health and calmness greatlySnap!
On a serious note, I've had strange things happen to me, but I'm older and smarter now, so I am not paranoid and do not attribute weird happenings to ghosts.
Yeah, The Ghost in the Machine would explain why we see ghosts, but it wouldn't explain why cameras picked them up as well. (Assuming any of those millions of pictures are in fact real)It also wouldn't really explain the things that happen due to ghosts. For instance, seemingly unexplainable physical oddities, such as water faucets turning off/on by themself, the turning off/on of lights, etcetera. However, this is probably due to the oldness of said place, but it seems sort of strange how these things seem to collaborate to make a place "haunted", so to speak. I'm sure these ghostly inquiries will lead to scientific explanations, and over time will assert the reasons why people perceive places as being haunted.
oh I have terrible sleep paralysis almost every night.I used to when I was younger, but I was haunted by gnomes... Garden fucking gnomes!
it's horrible I eventually just lucid dream to break out of it but no one can hear me and I know I'm dreaming but I want nothing more than to wake up. I imagine it's what hell is like.
would you guys consider believing in ghosts compared to believing say, The Chupacabra, or Aliens, a totally different catagory? So to speak.Many people believe in alien life.
SPOOKS!hahahahah that topic!
hahahahah that topic!
the only ghosts I believe in are the fluffy white kind
no, time and space are their own dimension, time itself is not a spatial dimension.Time and space are essentially the same. Thus, time is a dimension.
semantics ahoy.
i am a huge ghost buster in-the-making. i have never actually busted a ghost but i hope to do so one day. I am always on the lookout for weird things and once in a while you can just FEEL it in the air, you know....... like you get this shiver while you're alone in the living room and then it passes on
well here is my favorite website for ghost hunters like me: http://www.angelfire.com/zine/WeirdUSA/images.html
Infrasound is sound with a frequency too low to be heard by the human ear....
Infrasound has been known to cause feelings of awe or fear in humans.[9] Since it is not consciously perceived, it can make people feel vaguely that supernatural events are taking place.
Infrasound may be produced by wind, by some types of earthquakes, by ocean waves, and by such things as avalanches, volcanoes, and meteors.* Elephants have the ability to emit infrasound that can be detected at a distance of 2 km. Even tigers emit infrasound.Even some of the massive pipe organs in cathedrals can produce infrasound, which can aid in the false perception of the supernatural.
My prediction was wrong. :( I honestly didn't think that many people believed in ghosts.
Yah, thats "sleep paralysis, Its more frequent than most people think, it happens once to about 1 out of 4 people, usually in their teenage years, but for some very unlucky people, it happens once, and then happens again and again.

But yeah basically, you start dreaming seamlessly with being awake and you hallucinate "over" what you already see, hear and even smell around you. Happened to me when I was 14 or so, it really shocked me back then. I saw one of the most common ones, a huge white face right in front of mine with large bug eyes. The most common one though is the "old hag": it usually starts with a feeling of pressure on the sleeper's stomach. It makes him panic, and then he tries to move, but realizes he cant (because of sleep paralysis).
Lots of stories of alien abductions stories come from that, and lots of other things in popular culture. Like these weird ghosts you see in harry potter that steals souls, and one of the creatures in the Supernatural TV series was inspired off the "old hag", and theres also a few movies, like that one with like, the tooth fairy or something that kills anyone who enters darkness? Kidnaps children at night? Cant remember the name of that movie. I think it came out around 2000.
Look, it's a ghost. (Click to reveal)(http://gamingw.net/pubaccess/28695/Aerogel_nasa.jpg)
This is actually Aerogel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerogel), a special low-density material.
Has anyone else here mentioned or heard of infrasound (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrasound)?
