Ive read many cases that simply cant be explained away.
And scientists already have admitted that theres about 11 dimentions. Is it not equally possible that ghosts might occupy one of them?
How do you also explain dogs senses? They appear to see things we cant. Ive witnessed this first hand. I also once saw a documentary of a dog owner who had a camcorder set up to capture what his dog did when he was almost home. The Dog somehow knew his owner was on his way home, yet had no way of knowing.
I find it entirely plausible that animals can sense something we cant.

Near death experiences are believed to be products of huge releases of DMT in the brain (forgive me - I can't remember what it stands for and I can't be bothered to google it
). If i remember correctly, I think it's the Pineal Gland that releases it. there is a newer theory which points at the Sensory Autonomic System trying to find an experience that the person has had to attribute to the feeling of dying (the brain going back over previous experiences to relate to a current experience is something I talked about earlier in this thread).
as for dogs knowing when owners are coming home - well there are a couple of things I can think of off the top of my head to explain it;
1) as with most if not all living creatures, dogs have a body clock. if an event becomes routine, the dog will learn when certain things are due to happen. like the owner coming home.
2) dogs have a much better hearing system than us. the dog knows before I do that my gf has come home because she hears her car pulling up at the garage. this tends to be my cue to put the kettle on if I'm already home!!
so as you see, things
can be explained with relative easy in this day and age. not everything, of course. but taking a step back and thinking about events logically will far more often than not lead to and explainable sequence of events leading to situation experienced.
i know that everyone has right to believe in whatever they want, be it God, ghosts or goblins. I'm certainly never going to tell people they cannot believe in something (or indeed, that they should). however, if it appears obvious that a belief is having a negative effect on someone, then to present them with a logical, more physical and (imo) more likely explaination of something that is troubling them, in order to calm nerves and / or relieve upset, then I will gladly do that. I feel this is one of those times.
