In a "possible world" ghosts could exist. In the world we happen to inhabit, I firmly believe they don't.

People's "experiences" with ghosts are everything ranging from misinterpretations of things they've seen to hysteria to hallucinations to outright fraud. (All the "ghost hunter" types, no exceptions, fall into the last camp.)

I'm open to evidence to the contrary, of course, but this is a very large claim so it's going to need a mountain of solid evidence.

Wild to harken back to humans thinking a woman's uterus traveling around her body messing with things is the reason they are so emotional (hystaria) in a post claiming something is 100% impossible because of our advanced understanding of the subject.

In today's lesson, an always-seeking-something-to-be-offended-about ideologue learns about "linguistic drift".

Or, more likely, doesn't. But that's par for the course for America's so-called "left". (You know, the "left" that the rest of the world considers "centre right".)

Maybe so, though it wasn't my intention.
