Well, actually, what you can call a *ghost* is really a form of energy which manifests itself when one's brain is working at top capacity and thus you can control objects with your mind and such.\nRegarding aliens and UFOs, I think we're not alone in this universe, there's got to be some other lifeforms.

I have seen things I can't explain. That doesn't mean they are paranormal.  \n3 times in my life I've seen things others might describe as UFO's.  Once I was outside playing with friends (around 14  years old) and there were these weird lights.  We started to follow them but as soon as we left our dead-end street they vanished, but when we came back onto the street they were there again.\nAnother time (I was around 22) I was at an ATM at a mall at night (mall was closed) and a very bright object landed on the far side of the parking lot from me.\nThe third time I was a very young child on a drive with my parents and a shiny object fell out of the sky and crashed. We saw debris.\nI had many enounters with a ghost at my grandmother's old house. I never saw her, but I heard her.  And she used to cover me up when I slept over. \nWhen my red lory Scarlett died in 1994 she haunted my house for a while. My husband & others also saw her.  Guests would say "One of your birds is loose--the red one" and I'd say "I don't have a red one anymore" and check--all the other birds would be in their cages.\nMy friend had a white cat who lived at her store. The store caught on fire one night and the cat died. The firemen did try to save it but the smoke had gotten it.  She got a new cat, a grey one, but people kept telling her they'd seen a WHITE cat--customers who never knew she had one that died there.  I've never seen the white cat, but I've felt it brush my ankles when I could see the grey cat from across the room.\nspellcheck dead, sorry for errors.

ah! being an american u people believe in all these nonsense things.......ok ! I'm explaining u......\nThe metter is that : We human beings are psychologycally very complex ones......any picture, image , or any thing that is not living......if it is similar to any human related phenomenon .we'll automatically compare it with tht & that begins the whole confusion.......the gr8 bogus fundas like ghosts , & other stuffs are generated due to this reason....Plz don't believe in such bogus things.\nnow finally ans of ur question : Ultimately it has been proved what I've described earlier.nasa peolpe has dropped this project......:)

Ghosts and spirits exist.  Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.  The Holy Spirit is one.  Angels and demons are others.  There are reports, within the Church, of spirits and ghosts that are true (at least validated by the Church).  We call these miraculous apparitions.\nIf you are in touch with them, cool.  Use your gift for good.\nAnd no, you are not crazy.

They are real, for me anyway.........\n\nAs a kid I thought I saw a ghost in our kitchen.  It, she/he/whatever blew out an oil lamp, then it re-lit.\n\nAfter my father died in 2000 (I was grown)  I saw a shadowy figure, (an outline really) by his bedroom door, and beside the A/C control (this was winter).  As I approached?  for some reason I felt it was my Dad, so I said "Dad?"  I felt a cold air pass through me, and a touch on my shoulder.  He was weird about the A/C control, nobody could touch it except for him. The attic fan came on.......I walked passed the A/C control and knocked on sister's bedroom door.  She said "why are you shaking, the heater is on?"\n\nI believe in ghosts.................

People who say there are no ghosts generally are not Christians or they haven't paid real close to the teachings of the bible. there is a spiritual warfare going on at all times on this earth. \nThere are no ghosts per say but instead demons who take on the image of people in order to confuse and lead away people. when we die we sleep and wait for the end times for when Christ comes back. we do not float around and haunt things. \nwhat you need to do is walk around the house and say "In the name of Christ I command you to leave".  also do alot of praying. if this does not work then contact a parapsychologist who studies and investigates the paranormal. usually these people will not charge nothing and be happy to investigate!

YES!!! I belive in all of it\n\nTo those that have answered....I have quoted and responded to your words....\n\n"Much of this stuff dos indeed exist--but as a true Christina I stay clear pof such demonic stuff. "\n Ghosts, Magic, witches, wizards etc are NOT DEMONIC stuff! Ghosts are our astral form if you will, and is not concidered any form of the devil! Second, MAGIC is everywhere, Christians call it a Miracle! You can not deny MAGIC if so would be denying GOD! (I reference to God because he said he was a TRUE CHRISTIAN)\n\n"As entertaining as it looks, no. You have to believe in one or the other - God or the devil. "\nUm, WHAT?! Read explanation above! \nWitches are not Devil Worshipers in the first place (and devil worshipers dont always do EVIL! I have a friend who is and has never done harm to anything!) Wizards are a form of Witch but not exactly. A male and female can be called a witch. I do not know about wizards for I have not read up on them as much!\n\n"ghosts: most fall into one of a few categories, ie residual or one that is like a video loop that is replayed from time to time....there \nis no, and can be no interaction with it, it is just a moment in time that reappears....poltergeist: this is a nasty one that gets physical\nwith victims; typical "haunt": an entity with some form, perhaps\nthe visual of someone who hasn't crossed over\nmagic: depends on your definition....magic, miracles happen daily\nthey're just small and only noticeable to those that they happen\nfor/to..\nwitches: are we talking Wicca...the religion of nature?...or are\nwe talking hollywood?\nwizards: usually had more to do with alchemy and chemistry than\nmagic..... "\nHe has the better view out of anyone that I have read thus far. I give you much kuddos! Thanks for helping me explain what I wanted to say!

It has always been a mystery to me how anyone that professes to have any religious beliefs (regardless of what they are) can not believe in earth bound spirits. The very basis of any religion is that there is some existence after this one. \nOf coarse little kids see them. They're all around us.
476365
Yes!  There are spirits in the world. \n\nI for one would love to hear your story. \nI have had a few myself from places i have stayed over the years.\nI have only seen one ghost in a whitish shade.. \nAll the others were noises like running down the hallway when no one was there.. or having both my dogs start backing in the corner of the room.. then sitting down politely waiting for something..  \nMy dogs never sit and face a corner.. \nMade me move real fast.. found out i was sleeping in the same room the old man before me died in ..  \nIf i knew that i wouldn't have rented that house. \nthere has been so many to mention. \n\nSome good some not so good. \n\nALD

i wouldnt call them ghosts rather spirits or energies. I use to live in an appartment block which use to be an Old County Infirmary- it use to be the place where they cared for leapers. And I can definately tell you they are real!\n\nLots of weird things happened, once I was watching tv alone and a knife fell off the draining board of its own accord. (there was no vibrations coming from any applicance at the time to have knocked it off). \nAnother time my self and my boyfriend we just nodding off to sleep and right up in the corner of the room a huge dark shadow appeared and swooped over the two of us and away over the headboard-the two of us saw it at the same time.\nAnd there was always thumbing and dragging noises coming from above us although we lived on the top floor.\n\nAnother thing that makes me believe in spirits is that my own mother died 2 years ago, and recently I was at home and heard her bed squeek as if some1 sat on it -thinking it was the dog jumping on or off i went to see there was no one there, all of a sudden I got an overwhelming smell of flowers (she was a keen gardener).\nAnd the most amazing of all is, I had a picture of my mother and myself hugging on new years 1999, I loved the picture as we both looked so happy, I kept the picture in my diary and never ever moved it-no1 else knew where the picture was let alone remember having the picture. \nOne evening I was feeling really down, it was a particular bad time in my life and I asked my mother for a sign that she was looking after me. I was busying myself by clearing out some cupboards that hadnt been touched in years and low and behold the exact picture feel out of an old book- i know it was da same picture as I had written on the back. I reckon it was my mothers way of telling me she's still here in some form still looking after me.

I have one. His name is Pin. I could not care less if you think it sounds crazy, I did too. I do not really see anything ( there are different types of ghosts) I feel movement on the back of my motercycle seat as if someone is sitting there, I feel someone kicking the back of the seat in the car, I put something down ( I am systematic to a fault, everything in the same place all the time... keys, wallet watch, cell phone etc...) and will find them in obscure places in the house. Some of those places I had not been to in days. I do know that a ghost can choose thier host. If one chooses you, you are fortunate. Say hello now and then and your luck will increase ten-fold. Try it and you will see. I imagine the reason you ask is because you have experienced something. Join my blog group if you have actual ghost experience and discuss it.

I think ghosts are lost souls waiting and looking for the one something or someone they have lost. I think that there is life on other planets and the people there are probably asking the same question about our planet. you never know but maybe we will find out in the future.I dont know many ghost stories.

I believe in ghosts, but I'm not convinced that they are the souls of deceased people.  There are way too many other possibilities out there.\n\nJaime

Try this:  Based on the number of souls that have died over the centuries, ghosts, if they existed, shouldn't be hard to find at all.  Point out that on the Travel channel's "Most Haunted" series where a crew goes to a new 'most haunted' place every week they never have captured a ghost on video!  Nor has the Sci-Fi channel's "Ghost Hunters" series.  You may want to point out that if ghosts exist that it would be logical for them to appear on security cameras and surveilence cameras all the time...but this seems to never happen.  Sylvia Browne appears weekly on the Montel Williams show and tells people on the show that she sees their deceased loved ones "standing right beside them".  But the cameras never catch anything, nor do the microphones.  I heard a skeptic put it this way, and it's the most plausible explanation I've ever heard: "There are no haunted places, just haunted people."  Good luck with your debate.

well i believe in sprits, ghosts, etc...\nJust because you don't see something with your naked eye doesnt' mean that they don't exsist.  I have had weird things happen to me since my father past away 15 years ago.... sometimes i can be sitting in a chair, no one in the house with me and it feels like someone just pushed on my back... so some people would say i was crazy, i think it was a ghost, be it my father or brother or other family member that past on, or maybe my angel, that touched my shoulder to say that they were there.  I don't think that we should open a pandora's box by trying to open a port-hole for evil to come through... but the ghosts will contact those they want... as far as your fathers car, i believe that happened, but i wouldn't give into it or try to give it power...\n\ngood luck
