RE: Defending Beliefs!
My mother, while not religious in any sense of the word, still has a thing about ghosts. It's always bugged me, but I've learned not to bother trying to disabuse her of the notion, because it's one of those ideas that seems to have sprung fully formed from her mind without any need for evidence or anything. It doesn't help that she's not one for contemplation or self-questioning, either; her positions are her positions, and she holds them because they are her positions.

Why does he believe in ghosts? She "just does, alright?" Tongue
