i think the WTS is right to say ghosts are demons, afterall from what i read into it the bible implies that. just my opinion though!

Kenneson,
Actually I don't believe in ghosts or UFO's or Aliens.
I confess though that the concept of alien's or UFO's offers more possibility for discovery than the man-made notions of a "god".
On all of them I will wait/search for evidence before investing in any of them. By the way I do like Ozzy (Osbourne that is) and he wrote the following beautiful lyrics:
Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her sometimeAfter all there's only just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself
Time after timeI'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better daysI watch the sun go down like everyone of us
I'm hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those Who will come after us ...
This timeI'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away oh yeah
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better daysYour higher power may be God or Jesus Christ
It doesn't really matter much to me
Without each others help there ain't no hope for us
I'm living in a dream of fantasy
Oh yeah, yeah, yeahIf only we could all just find serenity
It would be nice if we could live as one
When will all this anger, hate and biggotry ...
Be gone?I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away
Today
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
Okay
I'm just a dreamer
Who's searching for the way
Today
I'm just a dreamer
Dreaming my life away
Oh yeah, yeah, yeahEdited by - donkey on 22 December 2002 11:11:56

I do. I have had a few experiences that have proven it to me. And no, they are not demons.

Millie,
How can you be so certain. I think I want to believe in ghosts, but on the other hand, thnking of my little girl in a spirit world, all alone without me, breaks my heart. It is easier to think of her in a sleep waiting for the resurrection. I get so mixed up at times, I don't know what I believe any more. There is so much that we don't know. If we carry on living after death, wouldn't God have told us this clearly, without any doubt. Of course, I am assuming you believe in God - many people don't. Even that subject gets me going round and round in circles. I sometimes think I will never have peace until I either get some answers or until I am dead too. Sorry - don't mean to sound morbid or anything.

If anybody clicked on the link I provided on the original post on the thread, there are several pictures on that website that show floating orbs and other strange "smoky images". They could be images from the spirit world, or they could just be light refracting off of something. The author does state that after careful examination, they are not just mere dust specs or fog. It could be something from the afterlife. It just got me thinking, "Is this life all there is?" (Sorry )
What's your opinion? All opinions are, of course, welcome. Both pro and con.

I suppose, if we look at this logically, the chances are that when we die, the end of us - at least for the time being until we have a resurrection or something. The reason I think this is, with the number of people dying every day, why aren't there more paranormal incidents? Surely, if it was possible to come back, the majority of people would want to contact their loved ones, wouldn't they? What about those people who had a firm belief in an afterlife and promised their families they would contact them? Nothing ever comes of it. Billions of people have died since man's creation - where are all the ghosts of these people? Why are ghosts always medieval nuns or monks or dressed in Victorian costumes or whatever? I do think there is something else that we can't explain, but I am not sure if they are ghosts. I think the WT explanation that they are demons is really creepy and I am not too sure about that either. Those of you that say you have had strange experiences - would you care to elaborate? I would be like to hear your stories because this is a subject that interests me.
