Poll: Ghosts.

[TriGGeR_HaPPy]

I have in fact had a couple encounters (so to speak).
Haven't actually seen a ghost, but a few weird things have happened. Won't say about them here, cuz I don't want to sound like I have the crazies.

So, I voted "No. But there is stuff we cant explain".

As long as there have been reports of ghosts (forever), shouldn't there be some hard evidence of them by now?

If they can be seen, then shouldn't they make an impact on the physical world that can be measured and studied?

But on the other hand, I did have a pretty weird experience myself once that I can't explain. My dad's company was having a company picnic. Next to the field where we all were was a graveyard. As I was eating my burger and looking across to the graveyard, I noticed a man in a nice suit (possibly a tuxedo) walking around. I figured he was visiting a grave...no big deal. I didn't really think anything of it. But then the guy got to one grave and started to lay down. That was a little weird. The grave had cement on the top of it that made it look like two small steps. It looked like he laid down right next to it so that I couldn't see him anymore behind the steps. This was also weird because the "steps" didn't seem high enough off the ground to accomplish that.

Quite a while went by and I never saw him get up and curiosity took over. So I walked over there and saw that the "steps" were far too shallow to have fully hidden a full-grown man and there were no other holes or dips in the earth nearby.

I'm still extremely skeptical of ghosts for the reasons I posted above, but that was a pretty strange experience nonetheless. Until I see some good evidence for ghosts, I am going to assume there was a logical explanation for what I saw even though I don't know what it is.

Can not comment directly as this is spiritual and I think such matters should be kept to yourself and only to those close to you.

I can say this: I am doubtful of those who claim to have evidence of ghosts yet brings forth evidence that is flimsy and weak. Little less so those who claim to have had a 'spooky encounter' but have remained rational on the topic. The reverse is also true, as my doubts become multiplied if faced with those who claim to be mediums, 'sensitive' or other wise boast some regular connection with the dead. At the far end of the spectrum those who put on a TV show and claim to be paranormal experts, speak to the dead or generally 'hunt' ghosts... I find those last one are also doing it for money which breaks my rule on money and spirituality.

Simple put: Never trust someone who is making a buck of anything spiritual.

Can't say yes or no to this really just because I've never had an encounter. I say they are most likely real.
