I vote No, but things would probably be more interesting if they did exist.

The ghost photo is a fake.

I find the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire picture to be just plain ridiculous. And the whole site just seems stupid and not worth reading.

And what about airline food? Disgrace!

Ghosts as such? Rather not.
But deny existence of supernatural? Not possible.

I don't know...

Ghosts are like UFOs: i'm one of the majority that had never seen them!

But i haven't seen so many existing things that i can't say that they aren't true!

Anyway the picture is false and i just need to look the face of the boy in the photo to say this!

Well I'll just repeat myself again (and say the same as I did in the religious topics):

The one claiming that something exists must prove it - not the other way around!

That's the first rule of science. Also if you conduct an experiment and wish to present it as proof others must be able to run the same experiment and get the same resoults - otherwise it's not valid. If the experiment won't succeed in at least 80% of tries then it's not valid as proof.

Statistics aren't proof - statistics can give you an idea and can help you set a theory, but can not prove anything.

So even if you get 1.000.000 out of 1.500.000 people to claim they actually saw a ghost - that still doesn't prove ghosts exist. It just makes it more possible for you to actually find a ghost there and maybe get some proof of their existance.

Ehmm....What would be a proof of ghosts existence??? :blink:

Well, not everything can be solved with normal sience. At least that's what I believe.

This may also be excuses for some of the biggest fakes ever made, but still, there are thinks you just can't prove with normal science.

Maybe Science can prove such things, but haven't yet the possibilities to prove it. Maybe we have just to wait 50 years and you can just put on a google and see ghosts or something like that.

Who knows.....

A big yes from me as i am sure there is a ghost in my house (lights swing, doors shut etc)

Exactly!
I mean - they said it's impossible to travel around the globe, because Earth is flat and you'd fall off the edge!

So many people have claimed to have seen ghosts and we know that there are more questions the answers in moder science - so it very well possible ghosts do exist, but haven't been proven yet (just like aliens, Yeti, Loch Ness moster,...). Or if not... well people tend to believe in many things that can't be proven :whistle:
