A friend and I are arguing over ghosts.

I think it’s akin to astrology, homeopathy and palm reading. He says there’s “convincing “ evidence for its existence. He also took up company time to make a meme to illustrate our relative positions. (See image)

(To be fair, I’m also on the clock right now)

What do you think?

      If a book claims something that’s fundamentally impossible by the laws of physics, I don’t need to read it to dismiss it.

          To fantasy creatures? Yes, I am close minded towards things that cannot be proven or disproven because they don’t exist in the first place.

          What a ridiculous hill you’ve chosen.

          You are an unserious person.

              Why do I care that people believe in fantasy stuff? Because we live in reality and people wasting their time on this crap is counter productive to society.

              Use your brain. Read more than just that one book that agrees with your feelings.

              Of course ghosts don’t exist, humans made them up. It’s that simple. It doesn’t require any additional thought. If there were ghosts, they’d be EVERYWHERE. There’d be animal ghosts, there would be virus ghosts, there would be neanderthal ghosts. They’d overwhelm the surface of the planet, and they aren’t and they don’t. Mystery solved. Use your precious life and energy on real things instead of this, again, ridiculous shit.
