    I believe in ghosts.

    But I don't necessarily believe that they're dead people experiencing some after-life. In that regard I'm not sure. I've never had any personal paranormal experiences... but after what my mother has experienced, I'm convinced that they exist.

    Im pretty sure they arent dead ppl either. Demons are usually mistaken for dead peoples spirits.

    What if ghosts are actual people in another universes leaking through; some sort of quantum effect? I wonder if this ends up being the case and science actually figures this out, how many people will STILL cling to the idea of a spirit world?

    I believe in hyperactive pattern recognition coupled with the inclination to assign intentional agency and the willingness to favor assumptions over investigation.

    Why would it change peoples minds? Cant the spirit world be called another universe? I think multiple parallel universes that function differently is just as amazing as the spirit world concept.

    If it's actually another world like ours, it is not a spirit world, which implies something other than normal people living out their lives, merely separated by interdimensional space. If you want to think a spirit is nothing more than images or bleed-through from a parallel world, that's great and something we may be able to test one day. However, I would expect that most people that believe in a spiritual plane would reject this concept.

    I think its a possibility, not something to rule out but I doubt it.

    I'm not asking whether you believe it is possible, I'm asking that if it was proven true, would you still cling to the belief in another spiritual world?
