Proof?

Everyone ever.

Hallucinations, wild imaginations, daydreams and self-inflicted paranoia. Or indoctrination at a young age, see: major religions and cults

Proof is your burden man.

I'm not going to believe ghosts exist anymore the blue polkadotted unicorns exist. PROVE IT.

I'm the most rational person you'll meet. You're still wrong. HTH

Burden of proof's on the person claiming crazy/insane shit exists, not the person saying it doesn't. But nice try. :)

In science, you strictly have to disprove, not prove a hypothesis, contrary to popular belief. (To be brattily nitpicky.) Which is why religion is not a scientific endeavour, and atheism is a belief, not objective truth.

The way we can operate within science at all, given the burden of disproof, is to assign probabilities of truth to theories. Left-field theories need good empirical evidence to support a paradigm shift. Within scientific orthodoxy, ghosts are looking pretty bloody unlikely as things currently stand, and until its believers come up with some testable hypotheses (which they never seem to do), it's going to stay that way.

You certainly sound like a wet blanket.
