What does this even mean?

Prove ghosts exist in the same way you can prove other things exist, and I'll believe them. I'm not being contrary...I simply ask that the same level of evidence we'd expect for other claims to extend to those of the supernatural kind.

If your claim requires special pleading to make it's case, then that's not my fault.

That's also the same hotel (and staircase) where Lloyd Christmas challenged Mary Swanson "race you to the top," in Dumb and Dumber.

I'll explain it to you again. We only "see" about 4% of the universe. And 4% might be a very generous estimate.

You don't see even close to 4 percent of the universe, but that doesn't mean that ghosts exist.

"See" is just a catchall term - Only 4% of the universe is matter that we can "see, manipulate, study, etc". The other 96% is dark matter and energy according to our best theories.






So tell us everything about the 96% we don't understand.

Here's the difference: there is quantifiable evidence of dark energy and dark matter that stands up to credible, peer review and scrutiny. Even with that, it's considered a hypothesis.

There is zero quantifiable evidence of ghosts/spirits etc. When actual scientists show up to document and test evidence of the paranormal, it never manifests itself for some reason. Hell, there are million dollar prizes available to anyone who can conclusively proof anything supernatural or paranormal that have gone unclaimed for years and years. But you're saying "There are things we don't understand, therefore Supernatural explanation is plausible" That's not how science works.

There are no Ghosts. If you disagree, show me undeniable proof.

Prove to us that gravity exists. Not "gravitation" but gravity itself.

Call me when he gets a real time photo of the young twin girls standing in the hallway.

Otherwise, this is just a bunch of tomfoolery.

I don't doubt that at all. My point was dead people don't talk, fly around, or do much of anything for that matter.
