Ghosts - NO
Psychics - Hell no
Aliens - Panspermia, meaning "all", and (sperma), meaning "seed") is the hypothesis that life exists throughout the Universe, distributed by meteoroids, asteroids, comets,planetoids ,and also by spacecraft in the form of unintended contamination by microorganisms

Panspermia is a hypothesis proposing that microscopic life forms that can survive the effects of space, such as extremophiles, become trapped in debris that is ejected into space after collisions between planets and small Solar System bodies that harbor life. Some organisms may travel dormant for an extended amount of time before colliding randomly with other planets or intermingling with protoplanetary disks. If met with ideal conditions on a new planet's surfaces, the organisms become active and the process of evolution begins. Panspermia is not meant to address how life began, just the method that may cause its distribution in the Universe.

Pseudo-panspermia (sometimes called "soft panspermia" or "molecular panspermia") argues that the pre-biotic organic building blocks of life originated in space and were incorporated in the solar nebula from which the planets condensed and were further—and continuously—distributed to planetary surfaces where life then emerged (abiogenesis). From the early 1970s it was becoming evident that interstellar dust consisted of a large component of organic molecules. Interstellar molecules are formed by chemical reactions within very sparse interstellar or circumstellar clouds of dust and gas. The dust plays a critical role of shielding the molecules from the ionizing effect of ultraviolet radiation emitted by stars.

The chemistry leading to life may have begun shortly after the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years ago, during a habitable epoch when the Universe was only 10–17 million years old. Though life is confirmed only on the Earth, some think that extraterrestrial life is not only plausible, but probable or inevitable. Other planets and moons in the Solar System and other planetary systems are being examined for evidence of having once supported simple life, and projects such as SETI are trying to detect radio transmissions from possible alien civilizations.

Believing in something you cant prove to be real (i.e. unicorns, ghosts, etc.) is insane. just ask any religious person ever.

You've peaked my interest, care to elaborate.

You couldn't see them only she could?. They had sex with you how could you see them? You. Could feel their interactions? If this is LARPing fine more elaboration. If you believe this occurred I'm interested in more details.
Thanks

Yes / No / No

I don't believe that aliens are visiting Earth, but I do think there must be intelligent life somewhere in the vast galaxies of the universe.

Can you show any proof whatsoever of evolution?


















































Hint: there is none.

Yes to all three. Had experiences with the last two. There are ghosts. Not all psychics are charletans. Some, an extremely few, are legit. There is one world renown psychic in New Orleans who is a third generation psychic that is completely true and accurate.

The problem lies in the question. It's as if those things are subject to existing if only someone will "believe" in them. If you, instead, ask what evidence people have to support the idea that ghosts exist or that "psychics" can do what they claim . . . then, you will see the thinking challenged crawl out of the woodwork.

I believe in the possibility that their is life out there. Humans are such a tiny part of existence. As far as ghosts and psychics, no of course I don't believe in that. Im not a child.

Maybe. Yes. Yes.

Go fishing with 2" cast nets, pull your haul in time after time and measure your results. All the fish are over 2" long.

From that you can scientifically conclude no fish exist under 2 inches.

I say we are looking for aliens, ghosts and psychics with 2" webbing that will never prove their existence.

I'm surprised that the majority of the responses align with mine.

Aliens: yes
Ghosts/psychics: no

That said, I once moved out of an apartment after the girl I was dating 'who claimed she had been able to communicate with ghosts all her life' had a 10 minute conversation with an 'entity' in the corner of my bedroom. Talk about freaked me out when I walked in on her in a dark room talking to the wall. Couldn't sleep well in that room after that, because I may not believe in ghosts but I damn sure believe in demonic spirits.

And yes, I broke up with her as well as with the apartment.

you can google "evolution in real time" (or something similar) and come up with plenty of examples of evolution happening on a very short time scale.

That does not make any logical sense at all. Why would a devil 'have' to exist just because God does?

Can we directly see "evolution" in a short timescale? That's debatable but for the sake of the argument I'll say okay maybe you can't directly observe it.

Is there a preponderance of evidence that indicates that evolution is responsible for the diversity of life on Earth?
Absolutely yes. A massive amount of evidence.

You saying that there is no 'proof' of evolution is akin to someone saying that we have no 'proof' that smoking causes lung cancer. We can't see it happening in real time but a ridiculous amount of evidence indicates that smoking is the cause of most lung cancers. To deny it for the lack of direct, observable evidence is bullshite.

I thought the same thing.

Maybe he was trying to say how if you take a cup and put some ocean water in it, there won't be a whale in the cup, therefore whales do not exist.
