Whenever this subject is brought up, amongst friends or strangers, I'm usually the only soul in the room who doesn't believe in ghosts. (I liked that I used 'soul' in that sentence.) I don't stress my opinions / views on ghosts on anyone, but I have argued about it a couple of times -- which is fruitless, as it's "the unexplained" -- but, usually, I'll just stand back and hear what people have to say. I've even heard a few of my close friends speak of ghostly happenings that they've seen / hear / been a part of.
I'm a bit nihilistic when it comes to spirituality and shit like aliens and Big Foot... but I'm always a little taken back when I see how many people believe in ghosts -- specifically, how many people have been ghosted, themselves.
I know there are some alternative-science explanations, such as time-rifts (where another time period overlaps with the present, assuming time is absolute). That stuff I find interesting, and would be more eager to buy, as opposed to doors and cupboards opening and closing (OMZ~1).
Another thing I find funny -- well, not so much "funny", in a shocking way, anyway -- that it's mostly the ladies who buy into ghosts and see ghosts. I have theories for this, as well (which I've read in other places)... and I don't want to get scolded for talkin' about them. :lol:...
Also, a lot of "Atheists" and non-spiritual / religious people I know believe in ghosts. *shrugs*
I think that the only time I believe in ghosts, and haunting, is in the metaphorical / symbolic sense. I'm not trying to say I'm the shit for not believing in ghosts, or anything like that... I mean, I'm the shit anyway; just curious as to if and why others believe.
