Do you think the spirits of dead people can haunt the living?I am not sure.:confused:Because i have never seen a ghost ever appear to me.

Only on a moonlit night whilst the waters of R'yleh are seething with the anger of the Mad One.

The Bible says that the dead do not know anything. They are simply dead. When Christ returns, then everyone will rise from their graves as spirit beings. Only then will they be able to "haunt" someone. On the other hand Satan has evil spirits ( not the spirits of dead people ) which roam the earth trying to cause harm and confusion. Some of these might try to appear as ghosts to scare people or cause other problems. Rest assured, it is not your long dead grandma or an angry ex girlfriend,

I don't think 'haunt' is the best word, but I do believe people who have left their physical bodies can communicate with those in the physical body in one way or another.

No...

As a cloud vanishes and is gone, so one who goes down to the grave does not return. He will never come to his house again; his place will know him no more. Job 7:9-10

Having never seen one there's no reason for me to believe in ghosts.
Same goes for alien abductions.

However having spoken with God, I can understand why people have reason to believe in God. If I had experienced a ghost, I would understand why people believe in them.

So a lack of experiencing a ghost, don't really have an opinion either way.

Only on the big screen.

With the lights dimmed low.

Soda in one hand, popcorn in the other.

The Baha'i view is well summarized here:

"...those who are far from God have no power to affect the living any more.[1][6][7] Indeed, evil is not viewed as a power in the next world - people who are evil are described as "atrophied" and "enfeebled"[8] and that accounts of "possession" are about people who have yielded to their own darker passions and baser nature".[7]
