We've all heard of stories about "ghosts" or possibly even witnessed one first hand. I'm not here to tell everyone they are wrong, but is it possible that all religions are based off of a ghost sighting? Not just Voodoo or other cult-like religions, but Christianity, Islam, Shinto, etc. Supposedly there is scientific research spending a large amount of time studying *real* ghost activity. This isn't what you think, it isn't a bunch of kids with plastic wrapped camera lenses and fancy lighting. this 'story': http://paranormal.about.com/library/blstory_october05_18.htm can explain it a bit better in detail, but if you don't have the time I'll give you a quick run-down.

Basically what happens when you die is that your cells still hold some bio-electricity. What happens is that sometimes the energy in those cells is so strong it can reform in the position they were in when they died. Over time the energy is released and once the body is fully decomposed the energy that was in those cells is left behind, sometimes in the exact form of the person; a ghost. Most of the time this "ghost" (which is actually exactly what those mystic people say it is, free energy) will do things that were ground into its everday life ruotine. Like walking around a house getting ready for work, or walking around thier place of work. This is where we get haunted houses/business'.

So what if all these religeons are based off of true ghosts? Maybe the ghost that they saw way back in the beginning and didnt understand was a normal human or animal that didnt "reform" properly? It would be like the ghosts in the movie Poltergeist, the evil ones, it would be really interesting if someday we could see ghosts and maybe have closure to what happens when we die. Maybe we don't go to heaven or hell or where ever, but we stay here as free energy.
