    Since you put this under "Education and Science"....then I will go with the most basic and simplest of answers- No! wink

    The human consciousness isn't proof of a spirit. The word "spirit", just like "soul", is a descriptive word for people's actions.

    It's brought forth from those who practice or practiced a religion of some sort. Neither can be found, nor have they ever been found.

    Why? Because, "spirit" and "soul" are just that...words.

    My grandmother believed in the afterlife.  She had absolute certainty that she had somewhere to go after her death.  So much so, that when she was dying, she said she would come back to visit me.  She died in 1984, and I am still waiting.  For years, I stood at her grave and asked her to come back.

    Some Christians who believe in heaven, teach that the dead body has no consciousness and no knowledge.  At the resurrection, the body is renewed and the mind regenerated.  Till then, it remains dead.  A figment of the imagination presenting itself as a spirit has nothing to do with the dead.  If there are spirits, they are connected to some other force; not with the dead.

      They exist.sometimes we call them ghosts and sometimes call them spirits but they are connected to some other forces.why we can't see them??????because they live in another dimension,a kind of limits present between those two dimensions i.e; our dimension and their dimension.

        If they live in another undefined dimension and we can neither be seen nor detect them how can you know they exist?  How can you even know that dimension exists except that the ghosts that don't exist live there by definition?

    I believe so. If you don't and you read this book (based on a true story), then you might change your mind:

    http://www.amazon.com/When-Angels-Inter … 1555171443

    ..and according to the book - they did show up on this day.

    Nope.
    In two words: No Evidence.
    In 6 words: Without evidence, all assumptions are equal

    Yes, there are demonic spirits and then there is the best of all, the Holy Spirit.

      Yes. They exist only when you have too much to drink.

        @wilderness.........we have no proof yet but i read some books on higher dimensions according to which any thing from higher dimension can easily be entered in our dimension and also vanished within seconds.sometimes we see shadows and in the next moment,they disappear.it's truly hypothetical as we have no way to enter in their higher dimension.
