The simple fact that energy cannot be destroyed supplies some evidence of ghosts. We have energy in our bodies and something has to happen to it when we die. It changes form. So, even if its not the traditional sense of "ghost", it's still what I would call a ghost.
Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn't thinking, isn't thinking of.

But what is your argument for ghosts?

I guess it's like having faith in Christiananity. You just have to believe. Lots of people are skeptical until seeing one though, so I don't blame you for not believing. I guess one argument could be all of the proof. I know some stories are fake, but with so many, they can't all be.

Well I'll be honest, I'm a Christian and I believe in stuff like demons from the devil to put fear in our lives but if we believe and pray to God they will go away because they hate us because the Bible says we are made in God's image and the Devil hates god. But yeah the ghost are really just demons but ghost is another name for them. demons are just angels but bad.

Well I don't believe in some stuff from Catholic because they say that Jesus died on a stake even though they use a bible that says he died on a cross.

I Lutheran, and we follow the bible. He was cruscified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. On the third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven.
That's part of the apostle's creed and explains what happened pretty well.

No, no, no, you have it all wrong. He was crucified for our sins, died, the Easter Bunny came and hid eggs by his tomb, and he came back to life to find them.
If it walks like socialist, quacks like socialist, smells like a socialist, .... it's a socialist. Hope, and change we can believe in.

Hey, just because you don't believe doesn't mean you have to make fun of those who do.

As I type this I am watching the GhostHunters Live Halloween special haha. So yeah I do believe in the otherworldly stuff.

I think everything in life and death is 100% possible. I am a Christian and therefore believe in God, Jesus, Satan, Heven and Hell. I know that when a person dies, it's their soul that leaves them. I think that those souls of folks who have died before their time by way of murder or horrific instant fatal diseases and haven't made a decision of whether they accept God or Satan as god, live in peril here on earth in spirit form. I also think that evil spirits haunt people or locations out of spite, and that good spirits haunt people with a caring and playfull nature. And BTW, every day there are Angels and Demons roaming this earth 24/7. And there have been many documented and proven acounts of activity with all spirits and angels and demons. I also think in some strange way that all Gvs.E religions around the world are somehow connected in a wierd way.

As far as aliens from space, I'm not sure. I think there just may be something out there. But there hasn't been any REAL clear cut proof of it.

There are many dimensions to life and layers to the world and otherworld. Heck, this world is tricky enough to figure out. That means the otherworld is like 10 fold trickier to as well.

Yeah and I agree with DG, that platypus is on crazy looking thing haha!

I believe in some stuff like souls coming back to Earth from Heaven or wherever the afterlife takes place. But I don't believe that they do haunting or are "revengeful" ghosts or anything like that.

As for UFOs...Well, I don't believe that these are aliens only because we would have solid scientific evidence if they were. Or if the really are, we haven't figured it out yet. I think that UFOs are actually some atmospheric phenomena that we have yet to discover.

Well, I can't say I saw one flying in the sky... but one time on a Halloween night (figures) My brother's friend and I were standing on a trail in our woods waiting for my bro and my mom to join us. All of a sudden something whizzed past or heads. I can describe it, since I remember it clearly. It was a flying disc of light. It was about three inches in diameter. It was flat, like a CD and it was bright white. I could see the light swirling around in it and it had a slit on one side. He and I were standing about three feet from each other and this flying disc thing flew in between out heads...It was fairly quick and then it just disappeared...I wasn't drunk people, I was nine years old! And I'm not making this up!

But I have also seen something else weirder than weird! Maybe some of you have heard of the Paulding Light... Its in the UP of Michigan. Its a light that just appears every night and no one knows why. Its down a little forest road and people go to watch it every night. It is a floating light that changes from white to red to green. It sometimes disappears or flickers. The legend is that there once was a railroad brakeman who worked by the tracks that used to run through there. He was killed by the train and now he shines his lantern to warn others. I know there have been a lot of attempts by scientists to figure it out, but still no one knows.

Another thing...I have a lot of premonition dreams. My one friend who NEVER missed days in high school - I had a dream that she was absent. The next day, guess what! She was absent! Even weirder, and relevant to sfgam, The night after opening day I had a dream that I was sitting under Déjà Vu and the piece of the track by the station came loose and fell off. I was completely unaware and was notified a few days later that that very part of the track wasn't up yet because the train wasn't on yet. The weirdest yet...In spring, I was having dreams about someone I had never met and he was having dreams about me. We showed each other pics and we were amazed at how accurate our dreams were. We dreamed about plenty of things about each other which all turned out to be true! Yes...Andrew! I'm talking about you.
