Yes I have, but the skeptics are only voicing their own views, not offering any proof.
Are you saying then that the show offers and has proof? Just because of it being presented as it is on TV?
I saw one such attempt to “debunk” an image that was captured. The person tried to claim it was the reflection of a soundman. He drew in (via computer) what he alleged was the boom mic & headphones. It was very poorly done by someone who refuses to believe thqat such a thing could be reqal. There are lots of clips around that show many odd things like chairs and other objects moving on their own & full body apparitions both on video & thermal imaging cameras. But if you go into it with the mindset that “such things can’t be real” will never be convinced, even if they experience these occurrences first hand.
It is kind of hard to debunk the show if they don't let you, a qualified investigator, follow them around and check everything they do, right? to check that in fact that light or whatever was not a reflection of the crew? Is that not possible that it could have been a reflection? Are the master tapes available for investigation? All of it, including the ones on the cutting room floor? Who checked it? Who certified it? Oh, the show did?
But that seems to be the case all around. Through the posts I have read here, no one is “on the fence” on the topic at hand – there are those who believe, and those who don’t, and I don’t see anyone saying their mind has been changed by anything.
But that would put you in one of those categories, right? Certainly not a fence sitter. Let me ask you sincerely, how did you verify that what they present is proof? Was there a peer review of their work? Duplicated by credible others? What are the qualifications of those Ghost Hunters?
It does occur to me however that a good number of people are completely put out by the idea that there exists other people whose views are out of line with their own, and want very much for that to change. That’s cool I didn’t expect to change anyone’s mind, just trying to give some different ways of thinking about things, so C'est la vie.
Well, this area you brought up, the Ghost Hunters show, is not even close to what we have discussed up until then. It can be tested properly and those hunters taken to task. So far, there is no credible evidence that they have discovered ghosts, only their claim.
Why would this crew be the real deal when so many others who claimed to have captured evidence of ghosts have failed the real testing?
Brings me back to my sister and the real psychics.
By the way, I think I read something about first hand experience. Is that really necessary? And, even if one had one and could not explain it on the spot, doesn't mean the even was a ghost. Maybe someone else does have the answer. That always gets me when one states that if You cannot explain it it must be so.
