Being a skeptic is fine, that's the purpose of the site to share data and discus it......Your comment was fine.
Except for the blinded skeptic as I call them, they won't be objective at all...... and what the say is the answer, period. There only reason for posing is to get people pissed, and thank God we have only has a few of them on the site ever.
These smilies are obnoxious...haha. But, you're right
, my dad is actually one of those types of skeptics. If I came home with a picture of a person and said that that person wasn't here...it had to be a ghost. He would just imply that I somehow didn't see the person when I took it.
I love paranormal stuff, but I won't be 'convinced' until something happens to me. At the same time, I enjoy seeing and hearing about what has happened to others... most experiences are really fascinating.
The closest thing to an experience for me was at Edna Collins Bridge. I was in the car with a few friends, and we could have sworn that it sounded like someone was walking up to the car wearing shoes. That was cool...but they made me drive away before anything else happened. (That isn't a joke...they would have been pissed if I stayed...I wasn't going to leave)
