    Here is another of your list where someone named Tim Richardson is openly skeptical and doubting of gardens ghost stories and legends.

    "Several years later, in his own memoir of the garden, Tim revealed just how difficult matters had become from a managerial point of view, with members of staff deeply disturbed and apparently beset by an enveloping black mood. Exorcisms ensued. Perhaps, in some cases, ‘hauntings' could more
    accurately be classified as communal hysteria.
    "

    "Coincidence? Perhaps, but if one stops to think about it, the haunting is obviously fabrication, extrapolated from an unlikely, although appealing, family Shakespeare legend"

    I know you are a liar, but is this really your idea of Country Life magazine promoting the idea of ghosts as a legitimate phenomenon? You really did have a stroke, didn't you. Check yourself into a clinic.

    This is fun! Let's continue the theme from another Wong link, shall we?


    ‘Every old house these days has some tale attached to it, whether it is a ghost or a curse,’ he said. ‘The curse was probably put on the house at the same time they were drowning witches.

    ‘It would be more of a worry if someone had been murdered in it last week. We find people in this day and age are generally less superstitious.’

    Oh, for sure! With this kind of "promotion" of belief in ghosts it's a wonder anyone is interested in them at all. Another lie bites the dust. Should I go on?
    Or after three strikes is there any doubt at all but you are out and outed as a bluffing liar filled with hot air and bluster, but little to no facts at all?

    Watch Yosh spin. Spin, Yosh! Spin.

    Three times caught making up bullsh*t in a single thread. While trying to prove God no less.

    Not to guild the lily, but...‘If it is genuinely spooky, it could affect the marketability and value of the house, so we'll ask questions about the house's history-staff tend to be a good source on such matters if it's too awkward to go direct to the vendor-and see if something comes out that way,' explains Mr Thistlethwayte. ‘Some of our clients will just say "For heaven's sake, Hugo" most Britons are beautifully sceptical
    http://www.countrylife.co.uk/news/article/504890/Haunted-houses-easily-sold-.html

    "It was quite a story, but the clients weren't bothered. Some are in touch with their spiritual side; others think it's a load of baloney."

    Does this really seem like Country Life is "promoting the notion of ghosts? Only to a liar, it seems.

    No. It's not. On what planet were you when you hallucinated I said anything similar?

    You are the one here promoting ghosts as a legitimate phenomenon. And trying to defend the nonexistent reputation of your intrepid ghost photographers, you asserted that:

    Lo and behold. They were and are "a magazine given to publishing ghost stories." A lot of them it turns out. Unable to continue the bullsh*t claim that they did not publish ghost stories, you are now spinning it as 'well, they really didn't belief it!'

    Who honestly gives a flying (*)(*)(*)(*)?

    You are now setting up a straw man in your desperate and pathetic attempt to wriggle out from underneath your fiction.

    And I'm still trying to figure out how you square your willful dishonesty with you professed belief in God.

    Hmmmm... what would Ansel Adams do?

    YOU DO! Or at least you did, until your own words trapped you.
    "More ignorant lies on the part of Yosh Schmenge. Worse, they are completely gratuitous lies since I have even linked you previously to the articles that prove you wrong again. You ask, "Did they promote, elaborate and pimp on behalf of ghosts per se?" Why yes they did. I linked you to a number of articles where they did exactly that".

    Wrong, wrong, wrong...run away, little soldier boy. Caught in another lie of your own.
    Post #521 specifically deals with what constitutes a "ghost story" so it's a little late now to try and re argue the issue , especially when you've just gone down in flames based on your own list that doesn't help you one bit. Lie harder next time, if there is one because your circular arguments are getting to be a bore again.
    Just as the ghost story issue shows, you will argue the same issue again and again from different angles using different standards (as they suit your needs at various times). Do I need this kind of aggravation? Not from someone who is so morally underhanded, I don't.

    We're done here, Yosh. The implosion of both your thread and your dignity is now complete.

    This is just what people do when they've just had their head handed to them. They ignore the issue that has trapped them and they unilaterally claim victory.

    Spoken like a true loser. I think I'll let you stew in the juices of reality for awhile. Let me know how it feels.

    Take a Picture?
    But why do so many seemingly intelligent and knowledgeable people fall for stupid nonsense like ghosts and gods and demons and angels?

    As with all threads that exceed 500 posts it's time to close this thread. If the members feel like discussing the topic more then please create a Part II thread with a link to this one. I will add a link to a new thread if notified by PM.
