Dead People Aren't Magical, And There Aren't Any Signs!

Especially in the shower.

That’s what Rufus says.

I know… and if SHE were posting here, I hope I’d be more sensitive.

But it does show some dubious theology, and I think these Ghost-Believers SHOULD be creeped out by the concept.

BTW, I’m comforted by the fact that I can ride my winged unicorn whenever I want to (well, if it’s above freezing and the wind’s under 20 mph… she’s kind of picky). Just because it’s comforting doesn’t make it true, or psychologically healthy.

Just to comment about them watching us masterbate and the like. To them it’s adorable like a infant child playing and making themselves happy. Sex and using our body is not dirty to them (and shouldn’t be to us). Any shame on that subject is our hangup.

As open to viewing and handeling as a infant is us to them. But not the dead ones, just the ones given eternal life. The dead ones just rot in the ground till they decide they want eternal life instead.

And how the hell would you know all this?

“Oh look, my morbidly obese middle-aged grandson is jacking it to ‘Anal Teen Whores Part 6’ and blowing his filthy load into a crusty yellowing gym sock. ADORABLE!!!”

Say this for being batshit insane: kanicbird always has answers.

He had a near-death experience.

Right channel, different show. :smiley:

Grammie?

Emmy.

In fairness, 6 did answer a lot of the lingering questions from 5.

I had a co-worker once who was would find pennies on the floor of her house and was convinced that her dead grandfather was leaving them for her. Absolutely impossible that it was one of her three small children or her pets (which I think can explain all kinds of small objects all over the floor, but…what do I know?)

If someone is prone to believing that dead relatives are watching, (and that’s something I’ve heard since childhood, so it’s a common myth in our culture) there’s nothing you can say to convince them otherwise. It is a No Logic Zone.

Bach to the future!

And that’s a real problem, being half rotted and then getting eternal life. Makes for some nasty zombie scenes in the Celestial Kingdom.

From the linked page:

I’m sorry, but I am not taking any chances on this. Sure, it seems unlikely and you scoff, but in the movies what happens to the guy who scoffs?

Every time you think he can’t possibly top himself, he comes up with even crazier shit.

Yes, it filled many a plot hole.

He did, but the way he combed his hair it hardly showed.
