Do you believe in ghosts?

[darren85]

Do you believe in ghosts? If so what do you suppose they are? Why are they here? What is their purpose?

[doppelgaenger]

I believe that ghosts are a figment of our imagination. They justify the death of a friend or a loved one. They justify the great unknown - creeping sounds at night that tickle our reflexes.

They are boogiemen created to scare children. They are here because a lot of kids are naughty and need scaring.

Probably sounds silly but my house is haunted, it was moaning whilst I was in bed last night, I have picture proof

I don't believe in ghosts, not at all, or in an afterlife for that matter. Ever notice how all the "evidence" can be explained otherwise?

When I was young, parents used other things to scare children. For example old gypsy or big scary eagle stealing the children that didn't want to come back home before dark. Or ,later, it was more of a local urban legend, there was a guy,called Smile, that was cutting a wide smile,from ear to ear, on peoples faces. A lot of people actually believed that it was true

The thing about that is that the "cutting a wide smile" part isn't exactly an urban legend.. [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glasgow_smile]Glasgow smile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/url]

Maybe in Glasgow, but unfortunately, nobody in Poland had such a brilliant idea

I don't believe in them no. I'd have to see one to believe it.

I think they are made up by people going a bit senile.

Well, i think the experiences at my bf's house has given me the creeps enough to not believe in them...

Perhaps ghosts exists but they're not spirits but just energy taken on a different form.
