Do you believe in ghosts?

    I don't believe in ghosts myself, but whenever there's a strange noise in the house I tell my new housemate (a good friend) that it's the ghost of Dorris, an old woman who died but still lives here. I was joking, obviously, but I didn't realise she believed in ghosts and now she's really freaked out. :pac:

    It doesn't help that our kettle randomly switches itself on, and the house can be pretty creaky at times.

    Buy a new kettle and tell your housemate to keep the noise down while on the job.

    Why did the ghost not go to the party?

    It had no body to go with.

    I ticked unsure, because nobody can say for certain that they don't exist, much the same as the whole life after death question.

    That wasn't the question, though. The question is about belief, not knowledge.

    I never seen a ghost so don't believe they exist.
    I also never seen a sloth so doing believe they exist either.

    We've proof and evidence of sloths. By your logic I don't believe 99%+ of the world exists because I haven't seen it personally

    Catholics have to believe in ghosts. And zombies.

    For evidence see Holy ghost, Lazarus and Jesus.

    One thing I heard from some sceptic show on ghosts "how come ghosts always wear Victorian clothes, where are all the cavemen ghosts?"
