For one to believe in 'ghosts' one must believe in some sort of after-life, and in most cases, that translates into a religious person.

So yeah, I think it's religious folks who buy into these myths, as is the case with so many things.

Well I had several encounters with ghost
But who knows, the mind is pretty powerful
Same thing goes when I use the Ouija board
Strange when u talk to ghost, or spirits and hands moves by itself or its just the mind doing it all. Who knows. My cousin freak out when the spirit was talking and she cry after it.
So I'm neutral on this

Try a Ouija board with your eyes closed. Nothing supernatural about that piece of cardboard, bud.

I did do it w/ my eyes close b/c people around me though I was playing around and still it move to letters and answer every question.
Also the cardboard it just a platform for communication b/c I read that other have experience the same by just using paper and a pen and let the ghost/spirit use your hand to communicate but its a weak single, so most of the time it doesn't work. Never try that that before, probably wont.

There is no spiritual communication going on, you want it to happen and your body will make it feel like you arent doing it.

and answer question and everything w/ my eyes close?

Maybe so, not a spiritual communication, but something that triggers your mind to do things you usually don't do

Some people make me laugh.

They see something out of the corner of thier eye, or hear a noise that sounds scary, and think "OMFG IT WAS A GHOSTLOL", they throw out every other explanation of what it could be.

Your friends in the car all saw the tree move or somthing, and then all the car doors shut.. You said it wasn't a windy day.. No, THEY said it wasn't a windy day - Can they prove it? Or are they just saying it because the wind couldn't POSSIBLY blow close ALL the doors in the car. OMG HAX.

I don't believe in ghosts at all. It is all your imagination, try walking down a dark alley at night and just think in your mind that you might get raped or somthing, then you will start to see things move in the corner of your eye.

Not ghosts, your imagination..

The tree did not move, and there are still things that are left unexplained.

-It was summertime. Where I live, there's no wind at that time of year. Besides, it happened in the same week.

-Car doors are kinda heavy. Try blowing it shut with with your breath. Now, try slamming it shut that way.

-Girl couldn't get out of the car.
-None of them saw any "ghost". The encounter was only physical.

I've never had anything like this happen to me. Maybe they made it up, maybe not. I haven't said, that I believed in ghosts either. And I never "see" things.

So, I guess I'll cross that bridge if I ever come to it.

It's impossible for wind in the summer, right?

There's a difference between your breath and wind. I've never had anyone blow on me hard enough to knock me over, but the 60 km/h winds we get sure can.

Bottom line, you shouldn't believe it at all if you weren't there. People bend stories to make them interesting.

As french said, how can I possibly blow a door shut with my breath? Unless I am the HULK I think it is pretty impossible.

OMG WIND IN SUMMER?LOL NO WAI!

i don't necessarily think thats true. i believe that energy imprints can remain in certain areas based upon circumstances of death. there's no consciousness or intent to these "ghosts", theenergy just sorta lingers imo.

have you (meaning anyone) every felt that? it's creepy.

No. What the hell are you smoking? 'Energy imprints'? It doesn't matter how you die, as soon as oxygen leaves your brain, your brain dies, your conscious disappears and all that artificial self-importance gets buried with you.

Jesus christ...
