Many of us can recall first first hand, or have heard some one close to us, having an encounter with Ghosts. Today, as it has been throughout time, there have been people who claim to be clairvoyant, with the peculiar ability to speak with the dead. Many times these individuals are simply Con artists… but once in a while you encounter a few that seem to be able to do the impossible.
The question, however, is whether or not this is possible…. of course, I am viewing this in the context of Christianity. If after death we go to heaven or hell, how is it the dead can communicate with us? and even if that is the case, why would those condemned to ‘hell’ be allowed to do so????
If you believe in the concept of the purgatory then the Idea is more believable… But if there is a purgatory why are there Ghost? Why would there be spirits still free to roam on our plain of existence…..
Some say spirits that have been violently Wronged (ie murdered), or those that have a message for loved ones, often stay behind… Yet y is this allowed…
If nothing Else I have found Creation to be a very elaborate and Efficient system, Everything works together in a never ending series of processes geared towards some almost unknown Goal….. this being the case…I wonder what are the rules of the system/process that governs the after life? why are there Ghosts, why can some people seem to be able to speak to the dead…
Then again can they…are Ghosts and clairvoyance really just constructs of a spiritual realm we do not understand….. and in an attempt to communicate with us.. or cross over… they exploit the mystery (at least to us, the living) that is the after life?
Much to ponder…………..
