After taking Psychology and Sociology courses it may be reasonable to suggest 3 possible options above. The fourth simply would suggest that there is a creator. Or probably there is a creator but not what is stated in the Bible nor any religions developed on Earth.

Sorry. none of the above.
I used to think of ghosts in a non religious way, but truthfully, the concept is no less feasible or credible than skydaddy.
All these myths and stories of ghosts ...meh, I can see right through them.
No God, No fear.

False Reasoning because your response could not be proven while the phenomena of "Ghosts" could be proven. I would say "FALSE CAUSE" but there is a missing initial point.
