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.

Since you're the all-knowing ghosts specialist, instead of being a douche and telling us this, why don't you provide some of the evidence? That would certainly make you seem far more credible (although I really doubt it).

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

My exgirlfriend had a horrifying encounter. When she was eight years old, she would see a shadow of someone in her room. She would wake up at night, realizing that something was molesting her. She told her dad, and the whole family moved the next day.

She told me they got a exorcist to go through the house or something the next day, but they still moved.

I would explain this strange encounter as it being a demon. Being a spiritual person, i believe Satan himself has demons on this earth wether we know it or not. Somethings are just effed up.
I don't believe it was some old pervert who died, and haunts the house.


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...

Dada: OK.

This is absolutely priceless. Could it not be that it was just some creepy guy who was lurking about and then left? I mean, that is pretty awful, but there is nothing at all supernatural about it.

Priceless?

I dont find anything priceless about it...she's not an idiot, she wouldn't confuse this thing with someone. If you want, i'll have her type exactly what she saw, it was a dark figure, not some cloaked man =/

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"

I mean I don't believe the bible either but seriously

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.

That is pretty interesting ragnar. The more I hear about this stuff, the more skeptical I become. My whole family believes in ghosts, except me, well I am a lot more skeptical and like to rationalize it more. My whole family is also Christian(I am the only atheist). I don't know if that is relevent, though.

guys enough with the bullshit theory i wanna hear more ghost stories!!!
