Ghosts God and U.f.o's

[Project-X]

Do any of you that believe in ghosts believe in ufo's and other "Unexplaned phenomena"? Do you also believe in god, and do you think there is some kind of link?

People who believe in undead spirits from the afterlife should be locked up.

I believe that ghosts exist, and I also believe there is no reason for ufos not to exist. I don't however, believe in God, and therefore I don't believe there is a link.

How come ghosts only come out at night?

You believe that a light in the sky is probably not a plane or a weather balloon but alien beings from the Xth dimension? Interesting.

[naomi24]

another-view, if you're talking to me, I've already answered that question on the other thread. Ghosts don't only come out at night.

I said I believe there is no reason for ufos not to exist, and that is very different to what you're suggesting.

How come no-one has ever seen a ghost then. Why is there a programme on TV called "Most Haubted" which has yet to show a single ghost?

Once you are dead, that's it.

[naomi24]

People have seen ghosts, but if that's your opinion, fair enough. I can't comment on programmes like Most Haunted because I don't watch them.

[another-view]

No recorded evidence.

I've had some pretty vivid dreams too but I know they are just dreams.

[Project-X]

Naomi if you believe in ghosts but don't believe in god how would you explain ghost's reasons for being here?
Another-view i take it you're a hard cynic that believes that everything "Supernatural" an be explained scientifically?

[Rev Sermon]

Three completely different scenarios I would say.

Ghosts I'm sceptical about - If they existed I would expect to see more evidence. If they do "exist" my theory would be more of an echo, or trace of a former existence or event rather than a sentient being.

UFO's seem quite feasible. Look up at the sky, count the number of stars and then ask yourself do you really believe this is the only place in the universe where intelligent life could have evolved. A mere 1,000 years the concept of flight, radio, television, the car, electricity, and so on would have been witchcraft, who can say what a civilisation just 1,000 years more advanced than us could achieve.

Regarding god, I am extremely doubtful for many reasons but I would say anyone who categorically denied the possibility is at least as deluded as someone who is adamant that their theory of god and religion is correct.

Have I affronted everybody? Good.

[another-view]

Yep.

In a similar way to the corn circles. Everyone believed irrationally that the were created by alien beings and it only stopped when the guys who were making them explained it was a hoax.

[naomi24]

another-view, No recorded evidence all as far as I'm aware, but if I'd never seen one myself, I couldn't in all honesty say that everyone who claims to have seen one is either lying or dreaming, because I simply wouldn't know.

[another-view]

Same as UFOs naomi. A pilot in America claimed to have seen one in the fifties, next thing everyone reckons they've spotted one. he said, "If I even spotted a house in the sky in future, I wouldn't tell a soul".

[another-view]

A UFO certainly. Not beings from a galaxy far, far away!

[naomi24]

Project-X, since energy cannot be destroyed, I think ghosts are the energy that remains after the body dies. Of course, I don't know that - it's just a theory.

The Scientist Carl sagan wrote a book dealing with that very same question, called "The Demon Haunted World". You may be interested in the reviews here...

You can't seriously believe that?

[tamirra]

I have a haunted house, ive had the paranormal team out and they have found quite a few, myself and daughter have both seen the same lady but a couple of weeks apart, im not worried or scared about them, but when im sitting watching tv you get a sudden cold blowing in your face that makes you shiver, only lasts for a second or two, all the write up is on there site online if anyone is interested.

[naomi24]

No-knowledge, quite right. :o)

another-view, precisely.
