i see what you mean logicseeker, but how do you know that what you percieve around you is all that there is?

yes logically the eyes scan everything and sends it to the brain what ever it gets, but how do you know that your subconcousness is not auto-altering the images it is getting from your eyes to conform with what you believe to be possible to exist in your reality ?

i mean you say you see everything, but can you prove that what you see is really all there is? Its just an assumption isn't it? And because i realise that this is just an assumption, i became suspicous as to why some people can see ghost and auras while others can't.

yes the majority of people don't believe in the existence of such things as spirits and such, because they require to see it first in order to believe it, but maybe that's not how it works with these kind of things, maybe you have to believe first in order to see it.

i'm not saying they 100% exit and that your wrong, i'm just saying that its possible that this might be the way we percieve reality. thanks for your input btw.
