Existence of ghosts
I have heard many stories on ghost or evil spirits existence .But the question is ....Is there existence true?...Does they really exist??..Is that a negative energy ???...If it is ..then of what type????..Or it is just a belief of people ???????????...Science says that it's a supernatural energy and on the other side the people of god such as saints,worshipper of gods,baba's says that there are ghosts ..I m questioning both on religion and science....

You need only watch "Ghost Hunters" on the SYFI channel one time and you will know the answer. Hoax is the first word that comes too mind. Thousands of hours of film wasted with little more than a few fools running about with flashlights asking "What was that" or "did you hear that". Really the scariest thing they have captured is fearful expressions on their own faces with night-vision so their eyes glow. Give us a break. Hundreds of attempts to actually see something, yet not even one second of proof. Why and how could this be. Hmmmmmmm Side: Against

I wouldn't advise anyone interested in studying ghost phenomena to get their information from the science fiction (SYFI) channel. Most of the leading evidence comes from psychical research and doesn't involve the video camera spectacle. Think more along the lines of psychic phenomena. If you saw a ghost and tried to video tape it probably wouldn't appear because the human mind is the apparatus necessary to pick up on non-physical beings, not mechanical film. Ghost Hunters: William James and the Search for Scientific Proof of Life After Death by Deborah Blum is a better place to start. Side: For
Where in serious religious texts are demons and ghosts given any mention. The "holy spirit" is not portrayed as a dis-embodied ghost of a dead human. Demons and evil spirits, have been, are now and shall remain folklore, along with witches on flying brooms, vampires praying on damsels and warewolves stalking the night. Please..............

Mark 5:9 And He was asking him, "What is your name?" And he said to Him, "My name is Legion; for we are many." Ephesians 6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Matthew 10:1 And he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every affliction. Side: Against

There is no proof supporting the existence of ghosts , unless photo shop counts as proof . The noises people hear in their houses at night doesn't prove the existence of ghosts either , as multiple things can cause noises in your house . The things that cause noises in your house at night actually happen during the day as well the night , you just don't hear them because of television , phones , talking , etc. being louder . Their also no religious reason to believe in them either , unless your apart of a poisonous kool aid drink cult , seeing as the majority as religions believe ghost to the afterlife or don't exist and are reincarnated .

The soul does not exist. What many believe to be the soul is simply consciousness, which is created by the brain. Once the brain dies, consciousness ceases. Therefore, based upon the assertion that what we believe the soul to be is simply a product of the brain, we can conclude that what constitutes a ghost, a soul, can not linger after death because it simply does not exist.

I not religious and do not believe in ghosts because there is no proof for them. You can't compare ghosts to God by saying 'there is no proof in either but you still believe in God' because God isn't made fun of on TV which aren't intentionally rude. There are shows on TV where people think that they are seeing ghosts but you don't see TV shows where they go in dark rooms and get scared because of God. Guess what, shows where they pretend to see ghosts are just for profit and so us guys can argue about whether they're real or not. Side: Against

I am not religious or anything, but I personally believe in the existence of ghosts. With so many claims of sightings, there must be some element of truth behind those claims. There are a lot of pictures of apparitions and recordings of disembodied voices. I've even personally experienced strange things in my life such as a 'force' of some sort pulling on my leg. Side: For

The sheer weight of anecdotal evidence should stand for something and can't be simply dismissed. Everyone has had some experience of the paranormal at some point in their lives or at least something that was beyond rational explanation. Whether its viewing something out of the corner of their eye, an apparition, unexplained noises or the feeling of ghostly presence. These could be ghosts, the imprint of a traumatic event on the area or a "timeslip", but I would argue that they exist none the less. Side: For

The first-rate evidence outside of experience comes from psychical research from cases of mediumship that have been well documented. It's really a matter of personal experience on one level, but there does exist suggestive evidence of various kinds that humans may survival the death of the body, including OBE, possession, ESP, etc,... ESP bears a large weight of evidence and demonstrates that consciousness is not confined to the body, at least in part. Human Personality and its Survival of Bodily Death by F.W.H. Myers is a wonderful broad stroke on the subject by a scholar. I have seen a ghost before as a youngster and I have had out of body states so I am more inclined to affirm their reality on a personal level. OBE

Do u believe in God's existence?.. If yes then have u ever seen God??.. ...I want to clarify dat it is not necessary dat what we see or experience only exist... We cannot see air but it it exists n without air we cannot live... Yeh.. We can feel it because it is everywhere but ghosts cannot be everywhere so we cannot...Now, compare the air to ghost, as to feel the air we need to feel alone or we try to concentrate on feeling it just Lyk dat to feel the ghost we need to be at there place where we have or had heard about there presence n then to feel Lyk we are alone in there place...I guarantee you, you will for sure experience it or feel it...I HOPE, FROM MY ANSWER U MUST BE SATISFIED.....If not then I should find out something proving to u about their presence... Thank you....AD Side: Against
