Why are we suddenly talking about atheism and ghosts?
One has nothing to do with the other.
You can still be an atheist and believe in ghosts, pixies and the great pumpkin. All atheism is a lack of belief in god.
What other crap you believe in has no bearing on it.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Btw, members of my "faith" know there is a difference between the Holy Ghost and spirits of the dead knocking about on earth (for some reason).
Yeah, laugh at my courage. It's all good with me. Ill assume your laughter is really that you are pissed I didn't take your bait. Of course, you haven't once asked me what sect of Christianity that I am so it's rather intellectually dishonest to assume its part of "my" faith.
Bolding is mine. Guess I do know enough about your religion after all. I'm still giggling by the way..but I'll try to keep my shit together.
Your courage? The courage to claim that you believe in ghosts but not ghosts? Such bravery leaves me breathless. All sects of christianity contain ghosts, so why would I have to ask? Intellectually dishonest....coming from someone who felt compelled to step on their own toes about ghosts......doesn't have quite the sting you were probably aiming for. No assumption was required, you self identified and I took you at your word (notice I didn't even have to specify a particular ghost...you knew going in..when you claimed you didn't believe..that you -did-...personally, I was giggling about souls....but hey, when there are so many ghosts to choose from mistakes like this will crop up.......).
You know what though...none of that is as interesting as the notion you have that there are different types of ghosts. Care to quantify that for me? Explain the difference between this ghost or that ghost...maybe explain how you've come to make such distinctions, where is this storehouse of knowledge regarding ghosts kept?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
