I'm afraid people have seen dead people. But they have been deceived by demonic spirits. These spirits are just out to trick people into thinking there is life after death. You see if you see someone who didn't really believe in God seem happy as a ghost, you become deceived and believe you don't have to live according to the Bible, you can live however you wish and it will be okay. But I have had first hand experience with demonic games and i assure you not to trifle with this. Even if you just believe in ghosts they are more likely to visit you.
They have been doing it for more then 5000 years, they are very good at it and seem to get a kick out of it.

Actually, the Bible says to ignore those people who speak with the dead, and it gives specific instances of living/dead contact (see 1 Samuel, where Saul is contacted by Samuel's ghost).
However, I don't believe this happens. Once you're dead, your individuality is over. Whether some "remnant energy" remains after having been absorbed into the Great Beyond is a possibility, but not as an individual being.
IMHO.

Yes, I do. Call it imagination or truth - I really don't give a crap: The night my grandfather had a heart attack, my mother and father had to rush to another town to go help... it was when my sister was about 1 year old and I told them not to worry and that I will look after her, this was at about 1 o clock in the morning... half an hour later, I was sitting crying and sick with worry in our sitting room. Suddenly I felt warm and a amazing calm came over me. I turned around and there was my grandfather, but he did not seem real - it was like having a dream, he waved to me with his right hand and smiled - then he disappeared... He died that exact time... I don't care if nobody believes me. That was one of the many special moments I shared with him. I loved him SO much.

It isn't possible. The dead are dead because they cease to exist. There can be no communication with something which does not exist. you may as well expect ot receive a message from a door post as a dead person. Experiments have been carried out to determine whether it is possible to get messages from beyond the grave. Houdini said that he would communicate after his death. His message is still awaited.

The bible teaches us, that when we die , our bodies become nothing, lifeless, void.......... we will stay dead, until the 2nd coming when we are ressurected, we cannot therefore contact the dead, or vice versa.....
however, satan and his spirits can disguise themselves, and deceive others into believing they are loved ones that have been lost, and trying to communicate......
I believe ghosts/spirits are real, i dont believe they are actually people who have died, i believe they are the works of satan and his demons

Nope, it's stupid crap. It's all in the mind. You think you see a ghost or you feel something holding you down when you wake up(I've encountered that, it's so cool and so friggin creepy) or just John Edwards saying something general about your life and it just happens to be true.
Example: You have a dead grand parent?
yes! My grandma died recently.
Stupid.

Nope. When it's over, it's over--and in one of two places, Heaven or Hell. No communication possible. Demons do parade as "dead people" communicating with people (so-called), just to have people believe that they are communicating with dead people.

There are mediums who supposedly contact the departed, but they are actually talking to a familiar spirit. they will reveal things that only the person would know and such, but this is not allowed by God. the bible speaks about such works and lets us know its a sin.The witch of Endor is mentioned in the bible.

Once you're dead, you're dead. No way, Ouija Boards wont do anything. Ectoplasm will rise in the air to make it move on its own. Possibly, someone is moving it OR the Nerves make you want to see it.
