Have you ever contacted a dead relative?

This may sound really odd, but I have heard of people that have 'supposedly' contacted dead relatives or friends. I have never done it myself, but I find it quite interesting. Even more peculiar is the ability to 'astro-project' your spirit. My uncle informed me that my grandad is able to do this 'so-called' astro-projection where the spirit leaves the body. Obviously I was completely shocked by this but it fact it is completly harmless and apparently it is very relaxing.

So my question is; has anybody ever contacted a relative or have the ability to astro-project?

I know this all sounds a bit freaky, but im just curious because I have heard so many people talk about it before.

no, thats irrational at best. contacting something thats "dead" is impossible.
how can i contact him/her if she/him is dead?? :confused: :confused: :confused:
No and I wouldn't want to even if it were possible to do it myself or to do it through one of those people or whatever
wat about electronic voice phenomena where you tape silence onto a cassette and when you play it back they can talk to you?

like in the film White Noise

There's supposed to be something where you photograph or video white noise on a dis-tuned TV and see faces in there too. I'm not convinced though.

but it can't be proven.

you cannot prove something does not exist physically

exactly. It can't be proven either way.

Hmm I think you misintrept what I said. The onus of proof is on those to believe it to prove it.

Its meaningless to say it cannot be disproven. I cannot disprove that there is not a green fuzzy invisible monster standing next to you however I am pretty sure there isn't.

there is ;_;

and a purple one in the bathroom.

I wasnt talking about your toothbrush, dont worry it doesnt bite. :biggrin:

not necessarily. I mean, I watched a documentary last night about sceptic scientists trying to disprove a belief.

(:

I imainge they found it very hard. The arguement basically boils down to do you believe that everything in this world can be described by physical laws or observation and explanaiton of phenomena. I think that discussions of what we cannot see/measure or see the effects of are meaningless as everything is anything is possible as explanations.
lessthanthree
they actually scientifically disproved the belief; but still people refuse to embrace the scientific dismissal.

Mrah, it's totally difficult.

belief by its very definition would be very hard to disprove
wild thing

I was interested in this white noice thing..and there is actually some software that allows you to create this "raw material" to capture the white noise..and I tryed the whole procedure ( of course I didn't hear anything, but even though it was kind of scary for me..a never tried it again :rolleyes: )

I am actually glad I didn't hear anything..because if I heard a voice of a dead person I am sure I wouldn't be able to sleep again :biggrin:
