I remain a skeptic, but there are moments where I think I am almost pursaded to believe. I recall watching this documentary on the Discovery Channel or Sci-Fi Channel or something like that, and it was about people having contact with the etheral plane. They talked with several people who had claimed to have seen a ghost. They talked with a few who had reportedly recorded ghostly sightings, both with video and sound equipment. They even had a few people that had claimed to have physical contact wth a ghost. I thought the program would be able to go no further than that, but they ended up taking with a East Indian gentleman who claimed to have had sex with a ghost! I was amazed and thought this was something that could only be dreamed up on movies like Ghostbusters, but was intrigued that this scene could have been based on some shred of fact. The interviewers were very persistent, certain that this transendentalist had bridged the gap between living and not so dead. The interview came to an abrupt halt when the yogi interjected, "Oh my goodness, there has been a dreadful error in communication! I thought you said goat!" It was at this point that my skepticism was re-established on the subject.
