Science is nothing more than figuring out how God did\does things. How many millions of $'s more have been spent learning to map said human genome comapared to finding ghosts?
We progressed in human existence cause we are human. DUH!

No. The thing about science is, if you can be made famous for it, someone will attempt to figure it out. If someone could actually prove the existence of a "ghost", they would win the Nobel Prize and it would be considered one of the greatest discoveries in human history. With all of that on the line, don't you think someone would have gone after it by now? What about all of the ghost hunter shows? All they need is some repeatable actions to produce a ghost and they would make millions. Why haven't they done that yet? Lack of trying? Did they just not want the fame and millions of dollars? The offer is, and always has been, on the table: Make a sitution that can consistently turn out a ghost in some way shape or form and you become famous. To say that people ignore that offer just because their parents told them it wasn't possible completely ignores how man has acted in its history. If the money is there, people will follow.
I think ghosts are alot like psychics. Many people claim to have had a psychic reading that was unexplainable and swear psychics are for real, and yet why hasn't anyone become rich beyond their wildest dreams if it were real? If you were a real psychic, wouldn't you be calling up every newspaper in town to prove your abilities? People would pay any price to have their questions answered, to communicate with the dead, see the future etc etc...and yet no one does it. The fact they leave money on the table tells me they know they would be found out if they ever went prime time. Same situation with ghosts. The money is there to be had, why has no one come forward with anything?
