you know i have gotten some pretty bizzare suggestions on this site. one person says to except the growlling into my home basically welcome it. now if i was to say that back to anyone that was somewhat in there saine mind which i did try today they were gasping to say the least as well as i was when the person posted this bizzare display of knowledge. i would never ask this type of entite to enter my home with open arms . it makes me wonder what side that person is posting for. then to answer the other question why bring up the fact i was a nurse to show validity to my knowledge of science and basic knowledge that just for the plane fact i had a disease process and i am not a complete idiot as some were proposeing as i do get challenged often as many handicaped people do by the general public and often family member as well (those people who love us ) and for any typo's i made was the fact i am plaged with right hand tremors do to the fact i have multiple sclerosis and the right side of my brain has 10 lesions and brain atrophy which does tend to effect my abilites on spelling and typing and at times mood. granted i am not prefect my if not a am sorry. i do infact beleive in sprits. ghost. paranormal. esp.(as what they called it back in the day) mediums , clyravoyence. As i stated earlier this in particular runs in my family (clyravoyence, mediums) and i just so happen to have some of the talent and as i get sicker with this disease process it is getting keener in it's abilites it runs in my family via mother , sister, aunt and myself. this is random but has been noted by the random people i have came in contact with and have stated past and present events. when my house was very active i did go to a phsycic i was so scared i really didnt know what to do it was the first time in my life i ever when he told me before i knew i had ms what i was going to have , he told me i had 4 spirts who they where, also told me the fact i was cyravoyent and medium via random at present and the others in my family and i attract souls. so there you have it forgive me for any misspelle words or typo's please this is michelle signing off . have a good night

Possibly. But could it more likely mean that it is just that the desciples were a little superstitious? One thing's for sure, they weren't perfect and Jesus often had to scold them and correct them on their ignorance.

If someone thought I was a ghost, I'd probably do something to prove to them I wasn't too. I don't think that's adequate reason to believe that the bible supports the idea of ghosts.


Once again, that could just be a result of ancient superstition.


To believe in ghosts means you have to believe there is some kind of limbo, which does not appear to be a biblical concept. The bible talks about the dead being risen from their graves to meet God, which suggests that they weren't roaming around as spirit beings. It would seem to me that if there were ghosts, every dead person would probably be one, which means we'd have a planet overrun with them. Every one would be experiencing them every day, but instead we have isolated cases, which even when other people go to investigate them, they come up with no proof.

I would think the bible would be more in support of demoniac activity than ghost activity. AFter all Jesus cast out a lot of demons from people.

i am getttig confused if you do or do not belive in spirts or just demonic spirits and i have another question for you there have been a few people on here that stated to welcome growllinfg spirts into your home to actually welcome them into your home i am curious your thought on this? thank you for your participation michelle

Oh good grief, Michelle. Do you ever stop to listen to yourself? It is obvious that you haven't understood what I was saying otherwise you would not be ranting on and on about this. In the simplest terms possible, You get back what you put into this type of phenomena, period. Full Stop. In simpler terms yet, as someone once said, long ago, "Ye reep what ye sow."

then to answer the other question why bring up the fact i was a nurse to show validity to my knowledge of science and basic knowledge that just for the plane fact i had a disease process and i am not a complete idiot as some were proposeing as i do get challenged often as many handicaped people do by the general public and often family member as well (those people who love us ) and for any typo's i made was the fact i am plaged with right hand tremors do to the fact i have multiple sclerosis and the right side of my brain has 10 lesions and brain atrophy which does tend to effect my abilites on spelling and typing and at times mood.
It is tragic that you are in this predicament, Michelle. I genuinely feel for you. It must be a living hell, to be sure.

granted i am not prefect my if not a am sorry. i do infact beleive in sprits. ghost. paranormal. esp.(as what they called it back in the day) mediums , clyravoyence.
And this is a major piece of the puzzle, I would wager.

As i stated earlier this in particular runs in my family (clyravoyence, mediums) and i just so happen to have some of the talent and as i get sicker with this disease process it is getting keener in it's abilites it runs in my family via mother , sister, aunt and myself.
This doesn't strike me as being even slightly unusual, Michelle. In my own family, both my grandmothers exhibited odd abilities, my father did, my mother does, my eldest sister does and then there is little old me, to boot.

this is random but has been noted by the random people i have came in contact with and have stated past and present events. when my house was very active i did go to a phsycic i was so scared
This is what puzzles me Michelle. I have heard this often and I have seen more bizarre things than I care to admit, but I have never been scared by what I have encountered. For the most part, it is quite the opposite... hence my suggestions. A very important difference in our viewpoints is the simple fact that I do not believe in demons OR evil. For that matter, no one in my family does either.

i really didnt know what to do it was the first time in my life i ever when he told me before i knew i had ms what i was going to have , he told me i had 4 spirts who they where, also told me the fact i was cyravoyent and medium via random at present and the others in my family and i attract souls.
Michelle, what was the advice they gave you then? Surely someone strong enough to give such accurate, detailed information would have something useful to tell you. Did they have any suggestions at all? If so, what? Did you try to follow through with their suggests or not?

so there you have it forgive me for any misspelle words or typo's please this is michelle signing off . have a good night
Michelle, if you perceived that I was accusing you of anything untoward, I am sorry for the confusion. I hope YOU can forgive me. That being said, How are you doing right now? What do you think, in your heart of hearts, the gnawing is that you described above?

>Does religion allow you to believe in hauntings?

Rational religion, no!

Superstitious religion, perhaps.
