Do you believe in Ghosts?

[CatWoman]

rather than saying they don't exist, I say "why not"?

[jus_the_facts]

1. I cannot believe in something I've never experienced....

....never had any supernatural or extraterrestrial encounters m'self...so I do not *believe* they exist. :hi:

2. I don't, for a few reasons...

I've never experienced any ghost-related activity, and the majority of hauntings can be explained.

3. That sums up my feelings pretty well

When something occurs which we can't readily explain, some of us are quick to ascribe a supernatural explanation. Alleged hauntings and ghosts generally have simple physical or psychological explanations. And even if we can't explain some particular instance, that is no reason to conclude it was a "ghost" - we don't understand everything about how the world works or especially about how our minds work. That doesn't mean there is no natural explanation - maybe we just haven't found it yet.

It looks to me like the OP is asking us to try to prove that something doesn't exist. That's well nigh impossible to prove!

4. Ghosts?... Cannot say really...

... but I know of individuals I respect as completely level-headed and not remotely prone to flights of fancy that swear blind they have had a "supernatural" experience.

Also, I'm more of the feeling that places can have a "memory" - specifically places that have experienced the worst - the very worst of man's inhumanity to man.
