You said,
You answered her question, but you added your criticism too as well. So, she is correct about you criticizing the concept.

Huh? What criticism?

You criticized her by saying that the dead don't contact people.

That's her belief individually. It doesn't mean that she criticized. I don't believe that the dead contact people either, too -- and that's my belief individually. It doesn't mean that I criticize anyone. Plain and simple. :)
 
Let's not go off topic or complain about anyone criticizing anyone else. If you have more to discuss about that, please do it through PM.

Now, back on topic...

My friends always thought that Tower A (Ellingson) at RIT was occupied by ghosts. :crazy:

Yeah, some I've encountered usually can see auras. :)

I believe in ghosts/spirits.

I don't believe in demons-- but some spirits can be misguided, and people can misunderstand. I think the devil/satan thing came from an era when human beings could only try to identify strangeness the best they could, not being too enlightened. Ya know, pitchforks and torches. :) It could mean something entirely different-- like in mythology, they've got the bad guys as gods like Ares. Ares could even be a good guy, but he was defined by his job as a soldier. Naturally, soldiers are viewed as devils as they come to destroy your homes. That's just a theory, of course, as is the chosen perception of devil/angel/and other mythical creatures. Maybe they were really ETs with the advantage of advanced technology and a long life compared to the human's life span, mistakened as gods and goddesses-- in their own squabbles, best portrayed in some myths from Greece and Italy methinks. :)

God created all beings in the universe. He created all angels. One important angel, Satan, became proud and rebellious. God cast him out of heaven. Many other rebellious angels followed Satan. These are called "fallen angels" or demons. These demons can possess unsaved people, or take the form of other beings, to deceive people. They can appear as "ghosts" or "ETs".

Satan does not appear as a red creature with horns and pitchfork. Those art images didn't appear until the Middle Ages.

The real Satan and demons, and demon possession have nothing to do with what we see in movies.

Mythical gods and goddesses display all the human frailities and petty characteristics. The one true God of the Jews and Christians is holy, has no sin or impurities, does not lie. Big difference!

Even if there were such things as "ETs", they would have to be created by God, so He is still the God of the universe.

I'm getting mixed feelings from you, are you trying to state this as facts, or as your opinions/beliefs?
 
Yes, you were right about satan, Reba. Reading bible story is my hobby.
 
One Truth?

Perhaps ghosts are the beings who have chosen not go to go heaven? I watched an eposide in Discovery channel about ghosts. One interesting fact that they've mentioned that ghosts might have chosen to stay closer to home because they felt their lives aren't completed, yet. They felt their lives have been interrupted and they felt their time weren't supposed to expire when they died. Again, I could be wrong. It's just one of my opinions on ghosts.
:dunno:

Hmm...your strings outta tune causing you to have mixed feelings or another words, confused??? No pun intended here...*peace*

Obviously Reba is relying both on 'facts and beliefs'...the 'fact' of the matter is certain elements have been portrayed and happened...and the 'beliefs' of implying an Sovereign God who IS above all and Creator of the universe....

I know you rely heavily on given 'facts' to back up your own queries and there's nothing wrong with that either, yet, sometimes it does take one to rely on 'believing' whether or not the facts are there or not available...for example: let's suppose someone is going to see a movie at the theatre...will this person KNOW this movie is going to be 'good' because of the reviews from others (a given fact) or will this 'someone' believe it will be a 'good' movie just because that person believes it may be a 'good' one??? This might be a stark contrast to what this thread actually is about...and for one, I do believe in Angels and Spirits, both evil and pure that do exists...although, I do not believe in ghosts...everything Reba implied in the post is something I do believe in strongly and also know of it as a fact...and believing as well....

Peace out.... :cool:

How's this:

It is my opinion/belief that those are facts. :D
 
And. I have before after my pets was passing away. They did touch me and I look at where they touch at. It was not there. I know that was my pets let me know that they are ok... :)
 
Well... I am kinda of believe in Ghost ... but I am very strong believe in God who create us to be live up here.. The reasons why I do believe that there is Ghost because i have witness the ghosts goes round sometimes .. eventhrough they do push me away to wake me up as I knew that they are trying to warn me to not go that path so i go different path and it turn out they save my life..

What do i believe the reasons why Ghost is round here ??? because they are not ready to leave the "earth" until their unfinish business to be finish business for example : these ghosts are viticims by murders as the murders haven't been caught so they are waiting for murder to be caught and put into prison or death excutions whatever u names it then these ghosts will feel better and times to go home ...
or or or ..... they could be our guardian Angel to protect us from these other reasons....

I do see some peoples have the auras/elements out of their body shape to know what kind they are ... here best examples of websites ...

my old digital camera caught few orbs and ghost over my home's roof outside dark. I think spirits are around and watching me. Believe me or not. That open vent outside is from oven that I did not cook during the the night.

 
well.. I strongly believe in ghost or spirit.. because i received the visitor from my grandpa who passed away last Jan 2006. When I was down in Arizona for busniess trip. I was robbed by a gun man and I saw my grandpa stood by me ( i saw and felt it) I swear i thought i was going to die because i saw his presence.. but anyway.. so i knew its real. ive always been senstive to see or feeling a presence for some reason since i was young girl. spooky,eh

just IMO.. the steam is from warm (heater inside your house) as u can see on top of roof the snow melt. I sometime get that from my house when its really cold or rain so hard the roof would smoke from sun drying up the wet roof
 
before my fiancee said it was steam or smoke that came from vent. i believed her. but physics supposes that stream or smoke rises. strange physics?
