Seeing a ghost
In your psychic abilities, Veronica, you take after our mother.
Note that Freeman has not drawn a conclusion about his experience. It may well be a dream, but there was no connection between the old lady and what was previously in his mind.

Seeing a ghost
When you use the word story were you implying that I was writing fiction? I was not. I was detailing a real experience by a real person, but I did not come to a conclusion about the nature of what was seen. People have strange experiences, but ...

Seeing a ghost
Throughout my life I have been labeled a cynic, realist, skeptic and someone who would not be chosen as a contestant on a game show (okay, that last one is a story for another time) but, it was a dream. Good story Frank.

Seeing a ghost
A stranger doesn't wander round someone's house any more than a sheep does. I have always had psychic abilities as does my youngest son and grandson. I have never seen a ghost.

Seeing a ghost
Too easy an explanation. Cows and sheep don't wander round houses in life, so why in death.Furthermore, Christianity thinks that they don't have immortal souls, but there have been reports of canine spirits, and remember, dogs have a mind higher ...

Seeing a ghost
The fact that most so called ghosts are seen at night is enough for me to dismiss them. Stray dreams, dream remnants, half waking up, different lights, normal noises and house movements. Stone tape theory allows for much of it. I have never ...

Buying a Great Mattress
I liked the way you wrote this guide. It is pretty helpful. My son is fast outgrowing his fancy car-shaped bed, and we were thinking about getting him a full sized bed to save on the expense ...

Canonized Saints: Why? How?
An ancient rule of the church is that you can only be made a saint by the church to which you belong, so imagine that after his death the church wanted to make Archbishop Desmond Tutu a saint, only the Anglican Church could make the decision. ...

Canonized Saints: Why? How?
I did hear that Lutherans considered adding Dietrich Bonhoffer, the anti-Hitler pastor, to the list of canonized saints, but nothing came from it.

Canonized Saints: Why? How?
Following up on the last sentence, the bishops who met in the Anglican Church to have Charles I added to the Anglican saints seem to not have had an established authority to add him, but he was for a time mentioned in the Common Book of Prayer ...

Canonized Saints: Why? How?
I believe so as well. There are only so many canonized saints needed for patron saints for most occupations and countries. And it is such a strict process, an individual requesting a case to be opened would not be considered normal, that few ...

Canonized Saints: Why? How?
Very good. I believe that there are more uncanonised saints than canonised ones. Good people who quietly live out their lives in kindness. Unnoticed by many.

Canonized Saints: Why? How?
Thanks, Frank. Yes, and canonization required those proclaimed saints in the older method were not necessarily carried over. Only after it became the current process involving the Pope did it become what is considered a valid canonization.
