If you believe in ghosts...

then you're an idiot.
A non-corporeal, non-physical entity cannot interact with the physical world. And it certainly cannot make stomping noises on wooden floors while drifting through walls.

Was your point of this thread to just try to offend people who may believe in them or something? Lame thread.

Do you find the truth to be offensive?

Don't be a afraid.
If you can see something then it cannot be non-physical.

Why not? Who are you? God or somethin?
Just cos you don't understand somethin doesn't mean that it cannot be real

No reason to be, I used to be like you too thinking people were gullible for believing in them, but then I've actually seen things happen in front of me that really have no other explanation no matter how hard I tried to think about it.

I am the OC, that's who! 
So just 'cos' you did not understand what you were witnessing, you bypassed all rational explanations and just jumped right to ghost?

When i see an actual person who i know has already passed away standing in front of me then i guess the general term and conclusion is that you've seen a "ghost" yes!

Well it took me and 2 other family members seeing the same non physical human silhouette to actually believe it. Prior to that there were a bunch of other weird occurrences that I just ignored. And no, no drugs involved. Feels kinda odd tellin people who don't believe in them what happened, but I honestly can't find another normal explanation for that.

Are there such things as imagination, projection, wishful-thinking, day-dreaming and hallucinations?
And why, oh why, are floors impermeable to ghosts, but not walls?

Ah yes, a silhouette. Most convincing.
Check out this link: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/624804#624804. Several hundred thousand witnesses saw this image of the Virgin Mary in glass. They could not all be wrong.
Nor could the 10,000 Phoenix Lights witnesses who saw an alien mothership (read: military flares) and got nearly every detail of the sighting wrong.

Semantics. Ok, how would you know that ghosts are really non physical then? If people have actually seen them, then I guess they're physical by what you're saying. So instead of trying to be technical about it, just say it, you just want to say people who have claimed to see them are crazy 
I don't even think you can use physics to disprove something that apparently isn't even of the world we know.
And by the way the silhouette, I guess you could call it wasn't near any window or around any surface that would've tricked all 3 of us. It was on top of the stairs moving past them.
I still don't believe in God, but I definitely saw what I saw, so I don't really have a choice to believe it. I'm not talking about a shadow or something, it was clearly human shaped.

And the silhouette on the bank glass window was clearly Virgin-shaped.

For one thing, to identify something as ghost you would have had to have previously encountered a ghost to compare it to.
My point with the other two examples is that people had a very long time to scrutinize such objects and still got it very wrong.
There was a famous non-hoaxed internet photo or video of a 'ghost'. After a few years someone figured it out. It was the reflection off the glass of someone else in the room not visible in the image.
As to your specific question, I have insufficient evidence to give an opinion.

I certainly don't believe in ghosts myself, but it strikes me that you're presenting this as fact when in actuality all it is is opinion.
