That's why we always have reports of people seeing Jesus in slices of toast, or in clouds, or the moisture on pavement. The brain is wired to see and quickly recognize the shapes of faces and human figures. It's an evolutionary defense mechanism for survival. That's why we mistakenly see faces and shit in normal everyday stuff like toast.
People convince themselves that all sorts of silly shit is real. But yet we have absolutely zero credible evidence, despite the constant ongoing search for them. Cameras all over the world are recording right now, hoping to catch a spirit on tape. But yet nothing except stories of people getting scared in the dark, and attributing it to whatever supernatural buzzword that fancies them. Meh... show us some proof...

here's the thing about proof of that sort of thing... do you know how difficult it is to get scientific funding these days? DAMNED hard, right next to impossible in some cases. we'll put it this way with regard to the supernatural:
the first legit proof of the supernatural, verifiable and peer-reviewed, would net the finder the following:
1) nobel prize/huge scientific cred of some sort (this is huge, believe it or not)
2) funding for LIFE
that it HASN'T happened, to me, is evidence that we either don't have the tech for it yet or that it just isn't there (I'll accept either as viable possibilities)
