Thanks much for the extra details!
you said,
> Unless you are there... it didn't happen ! :)
In the case of drunks walking across a dimly lit area, I would not
believe any ghost storys.
As for your story, I certainly wouldnt say it didnt happen. But what
did happen, is impossible to say at this point. I cant think of
anything, in the day light, to fake something like that in an
abandoned derelict building. Whatever it was, it is proof only to you
and your friend, of whatever you think, a fully clothed ghost that
moves thru walls, in this case. I presume your friend and you agree
on this.
I forget if I mentioned the book, Spook by Mary Roach, the audio book
is probably still on the audiobook newsgroup, if curious. She tells
lots of stories.
Your other note mentioned:
> Dont you think its strange that people that have Died in our living
> memory... have NOT come back yet ?
Honestly, I dont find that strange at all! ;-) While I believe you
are telling the truth, as you remember seeing it with your own eyes, I
still find the conclusion that ghosts exist as "not likely,"
regardless. Your question above is one of the arguments against the
real existence of spirits that are detached from a living body. If
ghosts were really real and able to appear, etc, there would be tons
of sightings. Houdini for sure would have communicated with his wife,
for example. Why wouldnt he? Oh, maybe either God or the Devil
wouldnt let him, but they dont stop other ghosts, like the one who
spooked you and your friend because of damage to some old building...
why would one obscure ghost be real, but all the other great and
famous ghosts in history be silent?
Douglas Adams made a joke about how space aliens like to play games on
dumb unsuspecting earthlings, finding someone alone that nobody will
ever believe, then zipping down in front of them and then walking back
and forth in front of them, making beep-beep noises, then zipping back
up and away into the stars. In other words, if space aliens are
visiting us, why do they only appear for people who publish in
tabloids. Kinda the same with ghosts, why such willy-nilly infrequent
appearances of insignificant purposes, if they have the power to
appear at all! Why not be a show off, and be famous for real! What
ghost could resist the temptation to be semi-alive again, and be
celebrated, or feared, to whatever-the-F they want, if they have the
power... why do ghosts hide!?
I guess we have about covered this thread, eh? If I ever see one, I
promise to tell you about it! :)
