Ok coming from a Dominant and the fact that the issue of spirits and supernatural usually means your kooky I will admit I do believe in "something". Call it Ghosts, spirits, supernatural, or just too much ice cream and a bad stomach ache. When I was young, I think 12 or 11, I fell asleep in front of My families TV one night. We were proud of the TV at the time because it was one of those technical marvels at that time that had all the bells and whistles. One said bell was the auto shut off turn on feature (this was back in the late 70's early 80's. So, I fell asleep in front of the TV I awoke about 20 mins later to the USA anthem song/signoff and then static. I got up and turned the tv off, at that moment, I heard plain as day "Hot, Hot, Hot, No." said to me as if someone were standing right next to me. Problem was I was the only one home that night because Mother was working late and My siblings were all out at friends. Ok so I pay it no mind cause I figured I was just hearing things or it was My mind playing tricks on Me. The very next day the whole family was at a gathering at Our Grandparents and My Brother walks into the home and sits down and says Our house had just burned to the ground. Afterwards I overheard My mother speaking with the fire marshal and he informed her that the cause was...The TV. The auto shut off/On feature overheaded and sparked the fire. So do I believe in something? Yes, do I believe that emotion can connet to said something during play? Possibly, studies show that spirits are around stressful events or places.
Oooh, I hate when things like that happen. I used to get this terrible, almost like a muscle spasm in my ear, a twitching/thumping rapidly of my eardrum every time my grandma had a stroke, and this is 100-2000 miles away (depending on where I was living). I would call up about an hour afterwards and ask, and sure enough. No one ever could explain it. But yeah, I agree, I've seen and experienced some odd things that would probably creep the jeebus out of Wes Craven. Nothing truly 'evil' per se, but just really damned odd and 100% not explainable with any logical means. And some of the "logical" stuff I explain things away with is sometimes even more far-fetched than saying 'It's a ghost.'.
The problem with situations like these is, it's difficult, at best, to garner proof, and even if there was proof, who knows what to do next? And no one can really say with 100% certainty anything about it, because, well, that would mean saying "I know everything there is to know about it.", and that's just not possible in any field of study. There's always chaos and randomness and glitches and all sorts of things that just can't be accounted for or known. A quote, from Hamlet, comes to mind on this, stating, "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." To think we're all alone here on this rock, just the things we can see and touch and explain is, at the kindest extreme, arrogant and foolish.
We're just one tiny, insignificant little rock out in the merest speck of our arm of this single galaxy. Which, in turn, is not even a noticable blot in the map of the universe. Those that claim to know for a fact that something either does or does not exist limit only themselves. 800 years ago, a spherical earth 'didn't exist', it was flat. 100 years ago, a network which one could use by sitting by a box in front of a screen to study and comunicate was hogwash and poppycock at best.
Times change and those that don't limit themselves by what they know right now to be 'true' go on to learn and discover and advance. And the ones that still hold that something is 'impossible' sit there on their thumbs in blissful ignorance. Will there be a solid answer tomorrow for "Are there ghosts?"? Probably not. But just because someone has never seen another person have an anvil tip over on their foot doesn't mean it hasn't happened. One day, there will be an answer I'm sure. Who knows when? But until then, I can't say that something doesn't exist simply because I can't pull the proof out of my pocket right now.
