now if we are to believe that i am a sane, credible witness. then this brings up interesting possibilities

But seriously. "Humans have believe in ghosts since the beginning of time"? Is THAT your supporting argument? I thought you were better than this. Fail.

That post wasn't about supporting or not supporting ghosts. Just discrediting the claims in the article regarding ghost hunting shows or that proof of ghosts would shake up the world. Reading comprehension fail!@Octair

the sarcasm is so thick you could cut it with the dragonslayer.

true story, lesser men would label it as a ghost, i am open to scientific phenomena. as i stated before im not a believer in ghosts

Wow, that article is full of fail. They've obviously never really watched a ghost hunter show before, or they'd know that the shows are structured around debunking the existence of ghosts.

The article also has no clue what the instruments are actually used for. The EMF reader, for example, is used to find a non-supernatural source that could debunk the existence of ghosts. The rest of the tool explanations are incredibly flawed, too. I know they're just trying to be funny, but when you're trying to criticize something, being wrong about your criticisms just makes you look stupid. It's only after all their debunking methods fail that the ghost hunters declare it's something they can't explain with our[/their] current understanding of science. If they actually manage to establish workable two-way "communication" with something (via non-random EVP, flashlight manipulation, etc), it could indicate it may be an intelligent entity.

Humans have believed in ghosts since the beginning of time. This is nothing ground-breaking and would not change the world/religion/life. It might change the worldview of modern scientists, but it would be no social revolution. The vast majority of humanity already takes for granted the existence of ghosts, a soul, and an afterlife, and most religions already incorporated centuries of people's experiences with "ghosts" into their belief structure, so "proof" would mean diddly squat to them.
