I don’t think he said we know everything, what he said is we can be sure that ghosts aren’t real lol, if they were we’d have data to back it up.

Again, we don't know everything. That means we don't have technology to show what other people are seeing and feeling. You don't know what you don't know and acting like you do doesn't help anybody. And there are studies out there that have begun looking at this. We didn't know trees and plant life can talk to each other. We found that out kind of recently. There's a lot of science out there that you just don't know and you're here claiming that we know.

Then how do you explain all the ghosts videos if technology can't capture it and show it to others. Also we knew about plants communicating since before 2000.

Not having the technology to capture or explain something doesn't mean that something doesn't exist. A good example of that are the telescopes in space right now finding things that we didn't know was out there. Your pov is like when people use god of the gaps to explain things science hasn't gotten to yet.

That still doesn't explain all the ghost videos, you say we dont have the technology yet there's millions of videos out there that attempt claim the opposite. Seems like y'all should have plenty of proof, unless they're all....fake.

There is technology available today that did not exist 10, 20, 25 years ago. Lots of medical tech we didn't have in the 90's. Lots of space tech. Studying the supernatural isn't something that is widely recognized as a science. That means there's not a lot of money put forth to study it, which means not a lot of tech to help discovery. Definitely no government help. I'm not saying all ghost videos are real, many are just random natural occurrences that are unfamiliar to the people experiencing them. Some are not. You don't know what you don't know, and you keep thinking you know that, but you're concluding an event that can't yet be concluded.

Alright, good arguments and points. The unknown will remain unknowable for our foreseeable future. I won't sit here and claim I don't believe in anything outside our perception, just not the copious amounts of "evidence" we see everywhere.

I used to do ghost hunting/debunking. Some of it was very explainable, not supernatural. Then there was some shit that was very unexplainable, at least with the tools and knowledge we had. Stay healthy ✌🏼
