:) I'm in the same. She believes in all measures of superstitious shite and then complains that I'm too cynical. Daft cow.

 

*If she sees this, I love you really but that bang was the pipes, not some dead Victorian plumber coming to say hello*

Ghosts are real.

 

I think it's one of those faith vs fact type situations Kevin. To date there hasn't been a great deal of tangible evidence in support of the proposition. Being shitted up alone in the house late at night, and seeing your dead uncle clancy tapdancing down the corridor, doesn't count as scientific evidence by the way.

I don't have a dead uncle clancy.. don't know where you're getting this info from but it's wrong.

 

So what.. out of millions of ghost siting you think there isn't a slight chance they could be real?

I actually have a very open mind on this, but I'm yet to be convinced. Basically my own experiences don't support it and there isn't any empirical evidence for it either, so I'm sceptical. I think there's a chance there might be ghosts in some form - whether it's the spirits of the dead is another matter - but I don't think the case for it is convincing at the moment. The truth behind most ghost stories is suspect at best, and eye witnesses tend to be credulous, superstitious, or there are specific factors at work (mood, lighting, setting, cultural references etc). Also a lot of eye witnesses tend to be drunks, crazies, feeble minded, superstitious, new age hippies, thickos etc which doesn't help.

 

The Victorians were obsessed with trying to prove the evidence of ghosts, and nobody managed it.

Nah I really do believe in them, a boy in my old class aswell seen his dead uncle (not clancy) staring at him above the stairs. I doubt he'd lie about it.

Well that's me convinced ! Why didn't you say you had a mate that had seen one ?! Let me know if he's also seen the Loch Ness monster, alien spaceships, dinosaurs in the Congo, pixies at the bottom of the garden, and a rift in the space/time continuum in the Bermuda Triangle, as this will clear up a few things for me.

No.. I just don't see why he would lie. I also don't see how so many people would lie about them.

 

Do you believe in any sort of after life?

 

Who said he was lying? He may believe he saw his dead uncle (not Clancy) but was actually mistaken. The mind plays tricks at the best of times and there may be any number of reasons why - a trick of the light, auto suggestion, feeling scared, a flashback, intoxication through drink and drugs, undergoing a psychotic episode, having an overactive imagination, being sexually abused by his uncle as a boy etc.

 

Just because somebody sees and believes something, doesn't necessarily make it true. Rastafarians have seen Haile Selassi and believe him to be the true Son of God. They are not lying. Do you therefore believe they are right?

 

Incidentally I have an open mind about the after life. However I'm sceptical about that too but I think most people are.

:lol::):lol::icon_lol:

 

I'm also a bit sceptical about it. It's scary thinking but that it's nothing.. like its over, your body shuts down, only you dont know it shuts down, because your gone, you cant think anymore, jesus, just lying there, finished, but you dont know your finished, you know nothing. Fucking scary :icon_lol:

I thought you were supposed to feel bulletproof at your age? Anyway by the time you pop your clogs they'll probably just chuck you in the deep freeze till death gets cured. That or they'll dissect your brain in the interests of science :icon_lol:
