Do you believe in the afterlife? Do you believe there are spirits/ghosts all around us and only when the end is near we are fully aware of their presence?

I am amazed at the number of people, just waiting to jump on a question like this. They are neither religious or spiritual yet they always have a negative answer. I suppose Satan has his followers as well.
First of all, I believe that the Holy Bible is the inspired Word of God. Jesus told us that where He was going, we could likewise go. We know he is in Heaven with His Father, and that is where we will someday be.
As far as spirits and ghosts, I have heard a lot of stories about their existence, but I have never personally experienced any except the Holy Spirit, that came into my life when I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I feel the presence of the Holy Spirit many times each day, and consider this a real blessing.

Good question...complicated answer.
Some do "hang around", for whatever reason, after they die. But most, according to my faith, spend some time in the Summerland--a place of rest and peace in the presence of the Goddess--before being reincarnated into the world.
Some people are more sensitive to the spirits that are here, but it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with how close they themselves are to death.

I believe in an after life.
As far as spirits i have yet to ponder said thought. I might do that later today. If there are spirits around us i think thats only a select few who are in tune with them.

I don't although I think it would be cool. I am always willing to consider valid evidence but so far there is no compelling evidence. Just personal antedotes that could be made up or due to honest misinterpretation or natural explanations.

Yes to all three of your questions. The real question is: are these spirits damned? Is there a heaven and a hell.? Is there a ressurection?

Depends on what you believe in. There is no clear cut answer to that.
