Does /b/g believe in ghosts?

[melbufrauma]

yay or nay

[Chelly]

negatory

[Mici]

When I see one with my own eyes I might, but badly focused cameras showing the outline of what might be a human figure will never convince me.

[Kiro]

Nope. But I'd rather believe in ghosts than heaven/hell. :<

[Mayareira]

I sleep with a silver sword.

[Lordwafik]

until I grew up and also came to my own conclusion that amazingly since digital cameras have become abundant , there are no "ghosts" or whisps in the pictures ever.

[Ramor]

shit is amazing wafik, ghosts just don't like digital.

[Gunitsoldier]

If there were ghosts I'd think that in the history of man kind SOMEBODY would've been able to get real evidence of it.

[Lordwafik]

Ectoplasm! What more proof do you need?

[Plow]

well fuck I do tonight now that you made me think about ghosts when I'm half asleep at 3am

[Jodwahh]

You guys do know Ghostbuster's is a documentary right?

I lived the first 14 years of my life in a house that was very haunted. You would hear footsteps coming from the upstairs when you were alone (and yes, there is a difference between an old house creaking and someone stomping around), electronics would turn on when there was no one in the room, sometimes there was disembodied breathing, objects sometimes moved on their own, shadows would appear and disappear, and every so often you could feel someone tug at you or your clothes when you were alone. This happened to me and family members at varying times, and almost always when no one else was around.

The neighborhood that I lived in was an old mining town, many of the houses had activity. The house across the street had green glowing lights that would go between the rooms which was amazing since the house had been abandoned for decades and didn't have electricity. (The place had been abandoned so long that it never got working plumbing, it had an outhouse.) My great aunt's and my grandmother's houses have apparitions which I had witnessed with other people.

So yeah, I believe in ghostly activity. Maybe not the spirits of the departed, but there is some sort of freaky paranormal shit that goes on. I have some very fucked up stories from my childhood because of it.

[Karbuncle]

I would so love to hear them

also Yay

[Gunitsoldier]

Tell them Septimus.

I personally believe in them. I've lived in a couple of places where things would occur and there would be no logical explanation. But when it comes right down to it when you see the "proof" people like Taps are able to provide you will either believe it or you won't. I do think some of their finds are real. But I also believe a large portion of the over the top crap they find is completely and totally fabricated.

If there were ghosts I'd think that in the history of man kind SOMEBODY would've been able to get real evidence of it.

The same can be said for God/Jesus/Loch Ness Monster/Bigfoot/UFO's/Aliens etc. You see proof if you choose to believe in it. If you don't believe in it, you probably never will.

[Takedown3]

no

I don't believe in any of those things.

[Brill Weave]

DON'T JUDGE ME!!

[kuronosan]

I think physically seeing ghosts is impossible.

I do, however, think there's a scientific explanation. Residual energy might have something to do with it, who knows?

I've had some paranormal experiences myself... it's possible maybe when we come into contact with this energy that our ears hear things or our eyes see things... our temperature and baroreceptors get thrown off... who knows?

I do know that I don't believe in some of the paranormal stuff like Paranormal State or TV Psychics. They just make shit up like crazy and people eat it up.

"OH DIS GHOST SEZ I SHUD KILL U".

Right, whatever.

tl;dr: I believe that they exist, just not the way they've been made to.

[Gunitsoldier]

I'm a guy that needs proof in order to believe something. I don't understand how people can believe in something that you can't see/prove. And don't say "U CANT SEE AIR LOLZ" , you can prove air is here cause you're breathing.
