Gwops said:I never asked for real proof of the existence of spirits, but I was always given more than one could dream of.
Now I have taken pictures of a beautiful ghost lady, a man and orbs at the same time. I can only thank them !
I have no need to prove their existence to skeptics, stupid or rude people.
People will reject the truth and those who claim to seek the truth and simply ignore it because their real intention is to make money.
I only like to thank these spirits and I know that they assist me. I might not be able to prove their existence to all people but to some who know I am trustworthy. I am happy to share this experience.
PS: You only receive as much as you are willing to accept.

I apologize if I gave anyone the impression that I call all skeptics stupid.
I withdraw from this message board for good and would like to thank Gene and David for the opportunity to experience the discussions of the paranormal experience. For me it is too difficult to openly discuss the sensitive issues in the presence of unrestrained flamers and attackers.
However, I would like to thank those people who responded to my quotes with dignity.
For those who wish to contact me on Skype, please check my profile or visit my website for contact details and more.

idontunderstand said:Hi Gwops, And yes some people on this forum live up their own backsides and will lambaste anything you say (criticism of your english etc). You speak excellent english. I cant speak a word of german!
Cheers!
interestedINitall said:Oh my, this must be referring to hopeful_skeptic and possibly me for past admonishments.
I have news for you, idontunderstand. You don't "speak" English either.
PS: Thanks, hopeful_skeptic. As usual, you've deftly articulated what I and most likely many others were thinking.
Oh, and Gwops isn't going to leave. He's just going to pout until someone validates his claims.
idontunderstand said:I dont believe I have spoken to you on this forum, and I seriously doubt I have been admonished by you.
It was a general statement regarding the bitching that happens on these forums and was not referring to anybody specifically. I dont speak english? What the hell is that supposed to mean?
Many people on this forum should be old enough to know better than to act like small children who have yet to mature. Yes many people laugh at gwops, but let the man formulate his own opinions in his own time. I see no profit in him being run of the forum.

hopeful skeptic said:I don't, either, incidentally, but starting off a post by incorrectly generalizing the views of all skeptics, and mocking their simple insistence on hard evidence to corroborate claims of the paranormal isn't the best way to kick off a discussion of anything.
I strongly suggest that Gwops' post is transparent, honest and courageous. Gwops is admitting that evidence is not important to him, and exerts no influence on his belief in any number of paranormal phenomena. He doesn't feel a need to provide evidence or even possess evidence, and doesn't care a whit about clear evidence that contradicts what he believes. In short, like so many other paranormalists, he has faith in these phenomena. He has replaced (or supplemented) organized, traditional religion with a faith in paranormal phenomena that doesn't at all depend on reason and logic.
I find his post very illuminating.
interestedINitall said:You might want to read my post again. Very little of your response makes sense.
I did manage to extract something about "maturity" from your keystrokes. Where, may I ask, is the "maturity" in writing "I have proof of ghosts!", not offering any evidence and then having a little tantrum and threatening to leave when questioned? That sounds like the hijinks of a bored 12 year-old.

I think I have a slight advantage over most people here, in that I speak to gwops on messenger quite a bit, and I have taken the time to get know him well.
Ive seen the pictures he has taken and they are quite impressive. I think he is under the impression that even if he produces the pictures he will be the at the butt end of mockery and scorn, because its been decided that hes a certain kind of person. Ive asked him to post the pictures hes taken, but hes completely lost faith in this forum as an arena of open discussion. He feels its become personal about him, and therefore is leaving.
I dont think you can determine anything about his religious feelings HS, by his paranormal stance.
DBTrek said:GWOPS may have layed a very intricate trap here. He may have posted something he knew would attract skeptics with the intention of announcing his immediate departure as soon as the skeptics took the bait. Perhaps he's waiting to see whether or not there will be a crackdown on skeptics now before he decides to return.
Maybe it's just my conspiratorial mind, but I see no other benefit to declaring "I have pictures proving the existence of ghosts, but none of you can see them!"
If his intention was to share his photographs he simply would have done so.
If his intention was to share his photographs without the fear of them being scrutinized then trying to get the skeptics silenced beforehand makes sense.
I tend to think the original post was bait.

Ankhes said:People disagree about things and that's okay. That's one of the cool things about forums - you get different points of view. Please try to not take it personally. Anyway, if you do stick around, I meant it when I asked if you would post the pic and that I would not be rude about it, regardless of whether or not I come to your conclusion about it.
