To ask if anyone has seen ufo, ghost, fae?

[Morecoombe]

I am curious if anybody here has seen any of these things , such as UFO or a ghost or what can be known as “fae”? I have once seen lights in the sky which could have been the Chinese lanterns, but I am open minded and interested in this subject

Absolutely. How naive would you need to be to think you know everything (not pointing any fingers, Masterbeth)

LOL that’s my point

You're talking about yet-to-be-uncovered scientific discoveries based on quantum physics, not fucking ghosts like on Scooby-Fucking-Doo. Is that the mysterious breakthrough you are imagining? Ghosts?

There are no ghosts and there are no fairies. Maybe there's some new scientific explanation for some vanishingly small number of odd stuff that happens sometimes that isn't just someone hearing something or hallucinating. That doesn't make ghosts exist. Ghosts don't exist.

You just dreamed about a fire. Why do you think you are so special that you went magic?

The greatest shame on threads like these are people who position themselves as the resident sceptic, shitting on people’s experiences. It’s always the same, and really drags these threads down.

Methinks @MasterBethprotests too much. Scroll by these threads you are obviously triggered!

Trying to find rational explanations is not “shitting” on people’s experiences. In my experience, most people are relieved and pleased to find an explanation.

Ghost are not there for people who wish not to see.

I've been seeing, hearing, feeling and communicating since I was a child. I don’t need a scientist to tell me about my own experience, because it’s mine.

If you feel and believe you have seen a ghost, you have. Don’t worry about those that will try to tell you otherwise and invalidate your experience. Everyone’s WiFi has a different bandwidth when it comes to the unseen energies around us….

"Scientific proof" is rather a bold claim....

This is clearly a thread to share weird experiences, and the tone from certain posters is not helpful or reassuring, but superior and patronising.

Twas always thus.

What did you think of them?

Woooo - oooooooh!! 👻

I haven't listened to them but it sounds like bullshit.

Sharing weird experiences is one thing. Ascribing them to ghosts and fairies is stupid.

I never said I believe in ghosts, that’s your leap, not mine. My point is that many things once dismissed as supernatural or absurd were later explained by science.
People used to think lightning was the wrath of gods. Now we know it's electricity. Mental illness was once seen as demonic possession. Germs were described as "invisible spirits" before microscopes existed. The idea that space and time could bend sounded ridiculous until Einstein proved it.
Quantum mechanics itself was called "spooky" by Einstein because it broke all the classical rules. Particles can be in two places at once, or affect each other instantly across space. That really DID sound like science fiction until it wasn’t.
we've barely scratched the surface of understanding reality, and today's fringe ideas sometimes become tomorrow’s facts but only if we stay open-minded and curious, not defensive and dismissive like you NO GHOSTS eats banana, scratches head

But some people get great comfort out of it.
What does it matter to you if some people believe there’s more to life than in your viewpoint?

Oh dear Lord I lost hours reading that! Loved it couldn't get enough, fascinating!
Either extremely well written or actually true. But I'm.no conspiracy theorist, I just keep an open mind.

You haven’t listened to them but it sounds like bullshit. Thanks for your input.

The same way I know I'm not hallucinating at the moment. I've also had a similar experience which someone else felt the same thing at the same time, so unless we were both dreaming or hallucinating the same thing, it's unlikely.

I don’t mind-although I wish they wouldn’t. What I don’t like is them encouraging other people to believe impossible things too. That leads to people being fleeced by psychics and clairvoyants in the hunt for comfort.

Nay, lass

It would be bizarre to be be randomly hearing things in the voice of someone I knew, pretty much at the moment they'd just died, without knowing that had happened. That's just not a rational explanation either.
Also, the voice wasn't coming from my head, it was coming from nearby.

It doesn't really matter to me what other people think. The OP asked for experiences and those were mine. They are occasional things that have happened over many years.

That’s what hearing things feels like. Hallucinations seem real.

A listener to the telepathy tapes didn’t believe in it and decided to study the films herself in order to debunk them and ended up believing it

I’ve read several of the debunking articles, but they always make broad assumptions of the material that didn’t/doesn’t match what we can hear/read/see for ourselves. They also cherry pick information, leaving out chunks that don’t fit their debunking message.

A whole episode of the tapes is on materialistic science, and how it’s closed off an awful lot of curiosity - if you can’t see it it doesn’t exist, when plenty of people have experienced things that shouldn’t exist.

I’ve had several weird experiences which I’m not going into here - the last few episodes of the TT went on a spiritual detour and spoke about things I’ve personally experienced.

As Carl Sagan said - be open minded, but not so open your brains fall out. There are odd things that happen in the world, it’s a shame to write them off as nonsense with no curiosity. We could be missing an awful lot of mindblowing stuff when we limit ourselves to “nope”.
