Do ghosts exist? If not, why do we see them?

But the point is that it isn't on any of those spectrum. It's a product of natural conditioning and psychology. If that is the dominant force in instinct, perhaps the paranormal can be attributed to that too. That would mean that the paranormal isn't necessarily real at all, just a byproduct of psychology and lacking in the faculty of reason.

We are part of the spectrum. Anything we dub upon ourselves in relation to us as a whole is nonetheless a branch from us, from the spectrum itself. There is absolutely nothing outside of the spectrum and if there is, then we just haven't discovere that portion of the spectrum yet.

In a material sense, yes. However, instincts are not at all part of the spectrum. While the EMS might underlie everything, unless everything is as per hard determinism, there are much more complex mechanics behind the development of the self that such a spectrum doesn't cover.

Instinct is a fixed-automatic behavior. Behavior is mostly a software aspect of our own hardware which is comprised from the current spectrum. Honestly, it's still a byproduct of a chemical/electrical reaction in our brain that causes us to serve out our own instinct. Which is STILL within the spectrum separately.

At this point, I think we're trying to say the same thing. I think our opinions might differ, on the substance of what the spectrum-instinct relationship is, but we are still essentially saying the same thing.

[Vultyrex]

We are in a sense, yes. However, I don't think our focal point was the same in what we were trying to express.

Two different interpretations of the same descriptions. xD
