Do ghosts exist? And should we be scared of them? Opinions!
Ghosts! A mysterious being about which there has been installed in our brains to fear, right since we were kids.
Lol, cute it is, isn't it?
What is even a ghost? Does animal ghosts also exist or only human ghosts have the right to exist?
Simply, we refer anything as ghost that, uh, you know, break our concept about death and disobeys the law that once dead, that person should remain dead, forever!
Hey, we were all dead before we were born, weren't we, well before our creation? So, are we all ghosts? If yes, then we shouldn't fear ourselves, do we? Or are we simply not that scary enough? What even is "scary"? Isn't that a subjective term. The sea beaches are amazing place to be for swimmers, but for those who doesn't know how to swim, they will be really scared to go beyond into the sea, won't they?
This concept that somehow we came into existence by co-incidence, and once we are dead, our existence can never occur again is one of a very hypocritic idea created by us, the human beings!
I don't necessarily believe in it, for say, I believe, co-incidences doesn't decide what should exist and what should not. I simply can't come into existence just by "co-incidence".
The atoms which is making up my body, they are all dead, they are as dead as the atoms which are the building blocks of the "Statue Of Liberty", so how can I be more alive than that statue? There is nothing extra in my body which is making me special and alive which is absent in the Statue Of Liberty, well up to what we can measure scientifically, obviously.
So, there is something extra in my body except dead atoms which are not present in the statues which is making my body alive? The probable answer is, definitely, yes! Else, how can I be alive? So, what is it? My soul? My spirit?
So, if we scientifically can't find what exactly is making me alive, is it not wrong to assume that dead people, just because their body is dead, simply cease to exist?! And if we firmly believe that dead people do surely cease to exist, then it makes perfect sense to fear them since they are disobeying the laws we know!
But do we actually turn into ugly ghosts after death? I don't think so, well, who wants to wear such clothes and become ugly just to frighten the "living" people when if we indeed did possess the powers ghosts are claimed to have, we might just be doing a world tour, and then solar system tour, a milky way galaxy tour? Nothing stops us, we are ghosts so we can fly right?!
But, we do continue to exist even after death, but not convinced that we actually turn into ghosts! And that's when we bring in the concepts and ideas about our creator!
So, ghosts don't really exist but we also don't cease to exist after death as well! I guess that's contradictory? Or are they actually the same statement?!
Cheers!
