Art Bell has announced he is returning to overnight radio. To recognize his return, I thought I would ask - what do you think of things like ghosts, UFO's, crop circles, the Yetti, etc?

In my mind, there is too much evidence that some of these things exist. For example, an entire town will see an usually shaped object in the sky in the evening. Maybe it is an experimental aircraft, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

What about ghosts? I have an uncle who believes he lives in a haunted house. He has described some pretty weird things to me. I have no reason to doubt him. Are the incidents figments of his imagination? I don't believe so.

Leap ... great topic. I believe in all that cannot be proven otherwise ... who are we to say that things don't exist ... again, though all in each perception's but if it is a belief that helps you cope or understand something...all the better. Like you said, there is too much evidence that exists in some cases that we simply cannot ignore.

If Christians can believe in God, then everyone else is free to believe in the supernatural.

Art Bell is returning again? how many times is this now?
I believe in supernatural, but I don't believe in a lot of the propoganda that Bell's espouses.

Art Bell? Some of his callers are ok, although a lot of them sound like folks who have forgotten to take specific medications for quite awhile.

Same with most of the folks on Jerry Springer. Ok, so a lot of the folks on Springer are in need of medication that has yet to be developed.

Never mind, there is a difference in the two.

i've seen many ghosts. my great grandmother talked to me 3 hrs after she died, and i've had an out-of-body experience.

i know most people won't believe any of it but i know these things DID happen.

yeah, you're full of it laf

we have a resident ghost here... things happen that are literally physically impossible... for example:

our counter ends at a wall, and before we had our dishwasher, i would put the papertowel roll standing on end right in the corner at the end of the counter... one day i reached for it, but there wasn't an open one, so i took the new one from the corner... i turned around, threw out the wrapper, and turned back to put it back, and right infront of where i took it from was an open roll of paper towels... i would have knocked the roll over to be able to get the one that was in my hands... it couldn't have possibly been there, and my husband wasn't home (my daughter still can't reach that high)...

and lights turn on that were off, things move, etc... strange house

seen a ufo, that's another story

Yep, I sure do believe, but I never saw a ghost before. And don't think I want to see one. But should we be calling them ghost or just spirits who haven't made it to the other side yet ?

I believe in ghosts. Friends of my parents have had ghosts in their house in England, and some pretty strange stuff has happened to them.

The other day I held a friend at work's 3 month old baby. The baby boy gazed up at me with these huge blue eyes, and I got the feeling from him like he wasn't new to this world... like he had been some place before. There was wisdom in his eyes. Strange I know, and I've never felt that before, looking at someone. It's given me something to think about...

It's an apartment.... and the same stuff happened in the house i grew up in - my parents would put me to bed, only to find me tucked in 10 minutes later (like, really tucked in!)

my mom said she would feel something like a dog walk across the bottom of the bed when my dad was away on trips, like it was protecting her

you could hear footsteps upstairs at night - every night

and lots more stuff... so i've grown up with it

at my last house, stuff happened too - my daughter was about a month old... i put her on the bed and went into the other room (she couldn't roll yet)... i heard a thump and when i came back in, she was on the other side of the room... that was impossible...

as long as they're not hurting you, ghosts shouldn't be feared

Yes, I have a ghost that lives in my computer and had both Dell and Ghostbusters out for on-site service to help rectify the problem. Apparrantly, it likes to type sarcastic comments on message boards. They determined it to be a class 2 stationary vapor and the only way to get rid of it is to upgrade. Unfortunately, I just upgraded before all this happened.

Juju, it hurts already--and I haven't given anything. What does this mean?

Will you ever have a ferret foundation or a kinkajou foundation??
