Do you believe in Ghosts?

no mainly because there's no solid proof of them

There's no evidence that clowns DON'T live on Pluto. So do you believe that could be true as well? :P

Well, surely that's covered by the fact that we can't currently get to pluto, and the atmosphere doesn't support us? ;))

It's a no for me and for me to believe they are real I would have to see them myself.

My point is, it's pretty much impossible to prove something that doesn't exist, since you don't know what you need to prove.

I know it'd be hard to do it, but somehow my mind is saying you can prove it somehow.
Ugh it's irritating because I know exactly what I want to say to further explain myself, but I can't fix it into words xD

1) Even the shortest fingernails can scratch things. Unless all ten of your fingernails have been surgically removed, you will be able to scratch your legs. Also, you can scratch your legs with your feet/toenails.

2) It's much more likely that someone forgot that they'd turned it on than you've got a ghost who's just addicted to cleaning your house.

3) All houses move. It doesn't have to be windy, the house doesn't have to be old. For example, if you try standing as still as possible, you will still find yourself moving simply to stay balanced. Obviously inanimate objects wouldn't sway as much as a human would, but they still have to move just a fraction or they'd fall down.
Also:
-Dripping taps
-The air moving round your radiators
-Dishwasher/washing machine could have been on
All reasonable explanations. There are plenty of other explanations too, I just don't have the energy to think of them.

4) Oddly, inanimate objects make shadows. Also, just because the shadow was moving doesn't mean the object itself was. The source of light could have been moving/flickering, therefore making the shadow look like it was moving.

5) Oh, please.

Yeah so just to summarise: I think the people who do tend to ignore cold, hard evidence staring them in the face and just jump straight to the conclusion that their house is haunted. There is absolutely no proof of ghosts whatsoever. There's just a load of ghost stories that children tell at sleepovers and the occasional mad Cat Lady who wants to get some money out of the Daily Mail.

Do you not believe in any kind of coincidence at all? Coincidences happen every second all over the world. How come if you see someone you know while you're on holiday you just look at each other and go "oh it's a small world isn't it?" but then as soon as your dishwasher turns on unexpectedly you're just like MY HOUSE IS FULL OF THE PARANORMAL. Sheesh.

Ok I think I'm done now (A)

Oh yeah, I don't believe in ghosts.

But the thing is, if someone did have proof of ghosts, actual rigid proof, then it would be accepted as scientifically accurate :P

And scientifically, it's pretty much impossible for something (like a ghost) to go through solids... Let alone bringing stuff like death/flight etc into it :P
