There's no agreed upon standards for what a ghost is, so how do you even begin to test for one.

I for sure saw a pure evil entity years ago with a friend of mine while we were driving on a rural road. It was not a hallucination or brief episode of mental illness.

Don't you write here that you're neutral on religion?

It’s amazing to me how arrogant and closed minded some people can be and think they have the answers to questions not even thousands of years of study have solved.

What are ghosts? Ghosts could be any form of phenomenon that takes the form or intelligence of a living creature that has lived once before. They could span anywhere from a full-body apparition, a shadow figure in the shape of a dog, or, if you're feeling like it, an orb. Or, they might not even present themselves at all and just interact, likely mischievous, with the environment.
What are my opinions on ghosts? I, as you'd probably expect, take a very religious stance on ghosts. I believe that there are helpful, angelic ghosts. These could be family members from your past coming down to tell you that everything is going to be alright. They could be a person in bright white, opening the passageway to a new stage of life. Overall, these are just ghosts that are there to comfort you and send you a message. Then, there are harmful spirits. These are spirits that are not angelic, but rather devilish. These are spirits that attempt to harm you or lead you astray. Overall, I take a more angels and devils stance, sent from heaven or hell stance, than a, "oh man, a tragic event happened here so lots of energy is left behind, a perfect environment for ghosts to be displayed!"
What about you? Do you believe in ghosts? Do you believe that there are angelic and devilish ghosts? Or do you believe that they are remnants of a tragic past. Or are they just trying to find their way to the afterlife, but can't?

It is an opinion. To say the universe just sprang into existence from nothing violating the precious laws of physics and that there is no higher power or being is even more ludicrous.

i have yet to meet a god or something that cannot be killed by sufficient application of kinetic energy or radiation . Bring me something i cannot kill show me a immortal an incorporeal being . Reality is an infinite plane between 1 and 2 as such you can do anything so long as it does not exceed or go under the values of 1 and 2 . Ghosts magic etc those are all numbers out side the set of one and two . I am at peace that i cease to be when my flesh automaton ceases to be . All i am are a collection of cells working in unison nothing more nothing less.
think is it not funny how magic etc all stopped as our understanding of science increased. in old times claims of beast and magic were common yet nowadays the best we can do are a few bad photos of ufos

If being a Muslim, which entails being firmly grounded in reality for a start, makes one stupid, then you are probably one of the smartest people I've seen online.
Islam is fundamentally, another theistic religion. Which means we cannot say it is true; nor can we say it is false. However, what is true, is that much of the religious views are also dated, and whilst the Quran suggests equality, many Muslim laws and nations believe in many things which violate basic human rights/decency.

Lumen literally claimed to see one, and the response was that he (he?) appeared to be hallucinating.
"If someone doesn't see one, then it is crazy that they believe in it. If they do see one, then they must be hallucinating."

Well, can we expand the thread to consider the incontrovertible fact that advanced extra-terrestrial life exists and use comets to hide their ships from us when they cruise the solar system? Because obviously there's no way dozens of people would kill themselves for anything that wasn't an absolutely verifiable, rational, and true thing, right?

My point still remains. How would someone prove a ghost, then?
