So me and my friend were talking about ghosts, and we are both atheists. We were trying to come up with explanations other then the fact that people who say they have seen ghosts, are mistaken, or crazy. I came up with the conclusion that when a person dies, they still have energy in them, correct? Even to carry out that last brain function even when the heart stops beating. As we all know, energy can not be destroyed. So I think, that if the energy was not released through heat, where would it go? I think that somehow this energy was formed into what some people thought are, ghosts. What do you guys think? How did the energy escape, and/or form into something else? And please, if there already is a scientifically proved explanation on how energy escapes a corpse, please just explain it and dont go full douche on me, I'm 15. Thank you.
