| | |  Ghost - Skeptical analysis: Encyclopedia II - Ghost - Skeptical analysis
While some accept ghosts as a reality, many others are skeptical of the existence of ghosts. For example, the vast majority of the scientific community believes that ghosts, as well as other supernatural and paranormal entities, do not exist.
Skeptics often explain ghost sightings with the principle of Occam's razor, which argues that explanations should maximize parsimony with the rest of our knowledge. They may suggest that, since few to none of us have ever had an interpersonal relationship with a ghost, but most or all of us have ...

| | | | Ghost - Skeptical analysis: Encyclopedia II - Freethought - Freethinkers (should be part of Freethinking?)
Freethinkers strive to form their opinions on the basis of facts and reason. An idealized statement of this attitude is "Clifford's Credo," an aphorism of the 19th Century British mathematician and philosopher William Kingdon Clifford who wrote in his "Ethics of Belief" that "It is wrong always, everywhere, and for anyone, to believe anything upon insufficient evidence." Because so many popular beliefs are based on tradition or authority, freethinkers' opinions are often at odds with established dogmatic, politic ...

| | | | Ghost - Skeptical analysis: Encyclopedia II - Freethought - Necessity of Faith Freethought can be viewed as varying in its quality and strength. Believers in any supernaturalistic religious tradition, for example, may suppose that they hold their faith on the basis of facts and reason. They may even fail to realize that faith would then not be necessary. Nevertheless, they may be willing to question or even to reject the religious teachings which they had previously accepted and this stance is certainly in line with that of Freethought. Similarly, Deists claim that they can know that a deity exists through ratio ...

| | | | Ghost - Skeptical analysis: Encyclopedia II - Freethought - Freethought and Religion In Western society, where Christianity is the dominant religious tradition, Freethought by definition involves a rejection of these established principles. Where other dogmas or doctrines are prevalent, those who dissent from them on the basis of facts and rational analysis also exhibit the principles of freethought. This will apply regardless of what the prevailing or approved doctrine might be, whether religious or not. Freethinkers neither accept nor reject ideas proposed as truth without recourse to facts and reason. A rejection of any i ...

While most academics prefer to ignore the subject, others, including mostly amateur and some professional scientific researchers, continue to investigate. Unfortunately, quality of investigations by amateur researchers can vary enormously.
Probably the most favored theory among advocates is the more conventional extraterrestrial hypothesis, though the Interdimensional hypothesis and the Paranormal/Occult Hypothesis for UFOs ...

While most academics prefer to ignore the subject, others, including mostly amateur and some professional scientific researchers, continue to investigate. Unfortunately, quality of investigations by amateur researchers can vary enormously.
It is a common error to assume that the only question of interest provided by the subject is whether UFOs represent alien intelligence (Peter Sturrock has argued that this emphasis on the extraterrestrial hypothesis has narrowed the ...

| | | | Ghost - Skeptical analysis: Encyclopedia II - Extraterrestrial hypothesis - Post-Arnold ETH Ideas Not long after Kenneth Arnold's sightings, UFOs were linked with speculation that they had non-earthly origins, including by Kenneth Arnold himself. In fact, this link has become so strong that it's precipitated a degree of semantic debate and confusion regarding the phrases "UFO" or "unidentified flying object".
