I don't really believe in GHOSTS but I believe in spirits of some kind. Not like weird white sheets that haunt you, but like actual...spirits.

I bet there is a story behind this, but I'm hesitant to ask.
*Looks around for something more worthwhile*
*Finds all sorts of important things that need doing*
*Turns back*
Anyway, what is this toliet ghost?

I see no reason to believe in ghosts, and a number of reasons to not believe in them Smile.

Fontroy, you can not prove it. It is like believing in the bible, some people don't and some people do.

Ok, time for a little bit of my confusing logic. We have the word "Ghost" and a definition of it. All of us know about "ghosts" and what they do. Since we have a word for it, Ghosts exist. Using that same logic, "Nothing" becomes "Something".

Have I lost you completely yet?

"Just think about it"------- the quote all us hate to hear from our newb math teacher, but he says it anyways.

and vice versa.
By your past logic "if noone is there to experience it..."

I guess if theres a tv in the middle of a forest, and noone is around to watch it, it doesnt exist, just like those undiscovered plant species, they dont exist.

Oh the cure for cancer doesnt exist because noone's around to notice it.

Actually, the quote I gave actually meant,

'If there is no one the to misinterpret what they saw/felt/heard, then we wouldn't have ghost stories'.

I kind of believe in ghosts, but not that they're always the evil kind from movies. Or that they have to be visible.

My house is haunted. Or that's our personal in-joke, anyways. Anytime something weird happens, we blame it on "Mrs. Dilitush", the lady who built our house in 1908.

I totally agree, there are no ghosts, there are evil spirts (sometimes called demons) that follow Satan and there are the good angels who stayed loyal to Jehovah but as for ghosts, they are definitely not real.The bible likens death to a sleep like state. They are not conscious of anything and have no 'immortal soul' that leaves and becomes a ghost or whatever.
