I don't believe in ghosts because there is no evidence that proves them. And with the amount of mobile phone cameras that bilions of people have these days, surely the chance of catching a ghost on film has increased dramatically - yet still nothing? Conclusion, ghosts aren't real.
However, now I've stated my non belief, I'd like to point out that over the years one or two anecdotal ghost stories have caught my attention. One thing I've noticed it that claimants never seem to claim they have interacted with the ghost, almost as if having a "live conversation" with a ghost is not possible.
This makes me wonder, if there are actually ghosts (again I don't believe there are) would they be even spirits with consciousness? Therefore paranormal? Ghost stories usually revolve around a historical figure doing the same thing over and over, and the ghost is not aware of the observer. I wonder if we ever did find proof of ghosts, they'd not be supernatural at all but maybe, if you like, a sort of recording of an event in a location, that pops up from time to time. Like a video recording imprinted on a small rip in space time.

You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
