When we believe in the good side of the power that rules the earth (GOD), why can't we beleive in the bad side of it, or what reason stops us from beleiving in it? Is there life after death.

Sure, I believe in ghosts/spirits/apparations, whatever you want to call them. Have seen, heard, felt, and smelled them. My dad smells like Old Spice and cigarette smoke, with a hint of motor oil because he's always fixing someone's car. Reincarnation? Definitely. After a person dies, the soul reverts to it's original form of energy then is reborn in another person at some later date. After all, opinions and beliefs vary from one person to another even though they seem the same. Why should a soul restrict itself to one viewpoint?

I like to think that humans, as a species, are generally optomistic, and so want to believe in the good everywhere. They don't ignore the bad, just try not to let it tarnish the good in the world.

I hope that helps, or at leasts sparks a spirited (ha ha) discussion for you.

Now you are touching on philosophy.
My opinion, there are no ghosts, there are spirits that were not human. I have seen and heard them. Reincarnation is not possible, unless you mean being born again in the image of Christ.

Facts: It doesn't really matter what you believe, there is a truth. If I believe that gravity doesn't exist, then I will not float up into the sky.
The only question that can be answered is the first one, because you asked about our opinion.
Ghosts have not been proven, nor have spirits of any kind. Nor is it likely they will ever be. Hearing and seeing them is testimonial evidence which might work in court, but in real life is prone to lies, hoaxes, and mostly misinterpetations of events.
Noone will know about reincarnation until they die. And if it does exist, then you will forget about it when you are born again.

Wow! Three questions for the points of one.

Yes. Ghosts exist as a human experience ( evidence beyond this remains elusive).

I saw what I took to be a man that I couldn't locate upon searching for him. Not sure how I would define a ghost but this was an experience of an apparition of a human male that was not physically present. So, yes.

I nor anyone else has any idea if reincarnation is possible,
The best attempt (so far) was conducted by Dr. Ian Stevenson (now deceased) at the University of Virginia.
His work is being continued by others and I have provided a link below.

Longhorn where is Lonestar?

The power that rules the earth is what we know as aliens, but we aren't allowed to believe it.
Strangely enough, though, here on Earth, the concept of an unprovable imaginary god is perfectly acceptable, and is by no means considered to be the "ultimate crazy fantasy." Yet, the concept of aliens is ultra-ridiculed by society. Well, obviously, this is due to the fact that aliens are indeed real, whereas imaginary gods are not. The aliens simply got humans to focus their attention on imaginary gods and away from their true controllers. It's no coincidence that all of Earth's religions fail to acknowledge the existence of aliens. It's because the aliens are the very ones who created all of Earth's religions, and thus did not foolishly promote the concept of alien dominance over humanity.
