So far it seems everyone agrees with me about fortune tellers/mediums, it's really sad how people will pay them, just because they are so desperate to communicate with a dead loved one..

I've seen some odd things but I don't believe in ghosts. I'd attribute my experiences to the Stone Tape Theory.

I don't know if ghosts are real or not. Maybe there are other worlds we can't see.

And I'm not sure about fortune tellers either.

There are no such things as ghosts, and there is absolutely no reason to think that there could be.

As a slow, bipedal mammal, making our way in the world during very dangerous times, it became an evolutionary trait of ours to see the faces of things for our own safety.

How many times have we looked at some wallpaper, rugs, or curtains, and seen a little face in there? When we had lions trying to eat us, having a brain that was good at picking out faces became an advantage. The difference between being eaten or not, was down to spotting predators early.

Anyone that believes they have seen a ghost, has obviously had a very real experience, but it wasn't a ghost, or at least there is not one shred of evidence to suggest it might be. Knowing what we know about life, then if ghosts were even possible, why do we have to go through physical life to end up in supernatural life?

It just makes no sense.

I do believe in Ghosts somewhat, and I'm a bit on the fence with fortune tellers.

Me and my cousin went to see one a couple of years ago and a lot of what she told us has actually happened.

She said my cousin was pregnant which my cousin thought was near impossible because she had problems conceiving. Two days later she found out she was pregnant.

And the stuff she told me was far too personal to be a coincidence. I never believed in fortune tellers so I literally gave her nothing to go on and concoct something.

So where is this information coming from? God? The universe? Satan. She performed a cold reading, and there are tricks of the trade that these people use. If you go and see one again, take a voice recorder and tape your reading.

You'll find there will be lots of misses in there, and if this information was coming from another realm, why would they know that a cousin is pregnant, but get something wrong about a grandparent? look up Derren Browns cold readings on YT. He explains how it's done.

definitely

i think our bodies are just like shells and when we die we leave them behind and i think all the ghosts probably go to another dimension but every so often one finds its way back into ours AND i also think there are evil ghosts too

like a ghost is basically a spiritual manifestation of the person that died so they are basically the same person like imagine hitlers ghost

yes ghosts exist katniss has spoken

Yes.

And they're not 'fortune tellers' they're Mediums - and some of them can be very reliable and correct. And Mediums can tell you what could happen in the future aswell - and they can be just as spot on as 'fortune tellers'.

I don't think Ghost's exist as in, the ones in films - but spirits coming back to earth are definitely true.
