A friend and I are arguing over ghosts.

I think it’s akin to astrology, homeopathy and palm reading. He says there’s “convincing “ evidence for its existence. He also took up company time to make a meme to illustrate our relative positions. (See image)

(To be fair, I’m also on the clock right now)

What do you think?

        You keep saying “physical force”…

        That’s not a real term in physics.

        The only possible explanation, is you mean any force that is already explained by physics, is that what you mean?

        Because that would be the same as insisting we know everything, which no one who knows anything about physics would ever try to claim.

        So…

        What exactly do you mean when you keep saying “physical forces”?

          I mean there’s no way to go from immeasurable to measurable except in scale, and anywhere north of quantum scale, physics has been reliably predictable and measurable. Ghosts’ purported impact is on a scale well above that which is unexplained.

            None of what you’ve said is n this thread makes any logical sense…

            Which would be fine cuz it’s about ghosts, but you keep acting like physics backs up your wild statements and made up vocabulary…
