I put ghosts, angels, and demons in the same category: they're supernatural beings whose existence has not been proved in hundreds of years of investigation.

Might as well believe in the Easter Bunny.

Ghosts ain't real, when you die you either go to heaven or heck. I do believe in demons and such, but I don't believe any given story about seeing such things unless I see it with my own two eyes, which I never have. Just my opinion.

Oh, the starter of threads who doesn't finish them. So, you believe in heaven and heck but you don't believe in the almighty allowing things to happen for those that need it?


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I'm not so sure... 1 Samuel 28 raises some interesting questions.

I would think someone set you up.

I really don’t know what I think, up the mountain here everyone calls “it” the engine devil. My bestfriend has seen him a few times. Out baiting deer in the middle of nowhere’s around 9 at night and seen a white light down a hundred yards in the woods but nothing behind the light, nothing there to create it. And not a single soul for miles. He’s seen it a few times. I’ve seen it once two mountains over looking out my camp window.

Sounds a lot like the Hornet Spook Light.

Dang that’s literally exactly what it’s like. But I’m a very long way from the Oklahoma and Missouri line

I saw the Hornet Spook Light a few times. We always went out there to actually see it... But it was a good excuse to get girls to go with you and park on a back road while waiting for it to show. Lol

I understand that now the sheriff's department will run people off if they catch them parked out there... That's a shame, I was going to try to talk the wife into going to see it. Lol

I stayed at the Pry House on Antietam Battlefield and yes there were ghosts. My guys were in a tent that was in the exact spot of where they piled up the arms and legs they amputated and they felt hands holding them down when they rolled over on their cots. Creepy.

It's the story about Saul using a medium to summon the spirit of Samuel. Samuel's ghost/spirit/whatever appears and promptly asks Saul why he has disturbed him... Some translations say "disturbed my sleep."

Just because I don't see something doesn't mean it's not there. I watch tv but don't seen any waves. My wifi works and I don't see it. I had a pair of hounds that had something treed out in a open field, they wasn't smelling something, they was going around in a circle snapping at the air, I never saw anything but I'm sure they did.

John 1:51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
Jacob saw a busy ladder connecting Heaven and earth in other words it was a bridge. Jesus is that bridge in which the angels come and go. There was a set of angels that was bound in chains of darkness. They no longer time travel or any other travel. They were bound as to not let them transform themselves into men and have relations with the daughters of men, nor move from their home in Tartarus. That doesn't mean there aren't other bad angels go to and fro on earth though.

Perhaps Saint Paul was in an astral plane when he was in the third Heaven and his silver cord never snapped, allowing him to return.

No, I don't believe in ghost as from from departed humans that mediums call up such as Endor. Possibly they do call up something just not departed humans that's trapped in some fake time warp.
Nor does Holy Ghost have anything to do with ghost. When Luther translated the bible there wasn't a better word at the time for Spirit so they went with Geist for spirit.

Spent a weekend at the James Getty Hotel in Gettysburg. Our room was on the top floor. Each night we heard people talking and laughing in the hall outside our room. When we checked out they asked us how our stay was. We told them it was good but that the other people on our floor were a little loud. They told us we were the only ones on that floor.

Real. Lots of folks believe in things that a lot of other folks don’t. Just like a lot of folks don’t believe in things others do.

As long as we aren’t burning each other or cutting heads off, who cares.


I know folks who are sensitive to auras and sense different things. I personally haven’t, but I have no reason to distrust the people I know who have seen, heard or otherwise experienced things
