Do you believe in Ghosts?

@Convivial If the claims can’t be replicated, then it’s false.

@Convivial good answe

@Umile thanks..try be objective... But unless you're name is Spock it can be difficult to know if you've achieved that lol

@SandWitch smh. Not a one.

@Dethmoore I know you heard of Sherlock Holmes the fictional detective. He had a lot of sayings about evidence and deductions. Hated to guess. Strange thing is the author was open to weird stuff and was fooled by young girls faking a photograph..

@Dethmoore well said. Ty for the share.

@Umile Don’t want to be too open minded that my brain falls out.

@Umile thank you

@BlueSkyKing good one

@Confined and some never will

@Axeroberts True

@Confined It'd more likely make me want to know what I'd[i] really[/i] experienced and how, rather than jumping to conclusions to suit a belief.

@Sidewinder respect

@BLP11520 Tough guy. You should visit the islands.

@Umile ok

@Umile I think most people have experienced the normal phenomena of thinking they see a person, say in the middle of the night or when they just wake up, only to discover it's the laundry. People want to believe there is more out there, but there ain't.

@Bumbles hey. everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Peace be with you.

@Umile Peace be with you as well!

@LordShadowfire comment. Share your experience.

@Umile I fell asleep before I could answer this, unfortunately. I've been to a couple of places that were haunted. One, I was told had ghosts. One, I was not.

As some folks know, I went to grown-up time out, as I like to call it. One of the places I went during my incarceration was the Eastern Oregon Correctional Institution. It's a prison made from an old mental hospital that was built on an Indian burial ground. That is such a recipe for a haunted place that even horror movie writers avoid it. One of the spirits who live there is an old man who sits on a balcony that's been closed off for decades, just sits there in his wheelchair. I looked up at that balcony, and I could sense him and describe his physical appearance, but I couldn't see him. It was so weird.

@LordShadowfire I understand. Smh. Living/working anywhere near a cemetery or hospital is never a y fun.

@Umile A dissertation is the paper a university grad student writes to earn their Honors. I'd like to share it publicly, but I need to get a copywrite on it first.

@NativePortlander ill be around when you do

@Umile I have a feeling that it will blow the minds of you and others, understanding that ghosts can and should be studied scientifically.

@LordShadowfire mmmhmm. Not exactly true. But for that kind of situation, yes. Black people kind of think like Micronesians and Mexicans. We're crazy but sensible like that i guess.

@Umile Well, when I say targeting, I wasn't necessarily upset about it, but it was definitely a "white folks is crazy" kind of post.

It's true, though. You don't see a lot of Ghost Hunter type shows that don't have mostly white people, lol.

@LordShadowfire for reals.
