My interpretation of a ghost

I have loads of ideas, I just came up with an entirely original concept of a ghost being a copy and paste of a person the moment they die. Perhaps that's why after a near death experience, (coming back from death after 5 seconds) you can see so many ghosts, your body is half uploaded into the Universe's back up system.

The idea sounds good to write a fictional story

Normally the process goes the other way

:)

Universe????

Back up system????

Who would use a backed up Universe?

:)
 
Maybe Time travel only works backwards, the Universe can up load the back up copies of people's consciousness back into their newly reanimated bodies.
Going to ask that this thread be moved to the Fiction-writing forum.

What you have are not loads of ideas, but loads of fantasy notions, unsupported by any connection to the reality we understand.

Some questions which immediately arise, and to which I am confident you have given little, if any, thought, include:
  • What does the copying of a person?
  • Why does the copying happen at the moment of death?
  • Where does the copy go?
  • What does the pasting?
  • How does the copying and pasting actually work, scientifically?
  • What is the copy pasted into?
  • What's the evidence for people seeing "so many ghosts" after coming back from a near-death experience?
  • What's the evidence for the universe having a "back up system"?
  • What does that back up system consist of, physically?
  • Who or what runs the system?
  • How is copying and pasting done to and from the backup system? (i.e. what is the physical process that occurs)?
  • Why is there a back up system at all?
  • What's the evidence for time travel?
  • What's the evidence that bodies can be "reanimated"?
  • What's the evidence for the existence of "back up copies" in the universe?
  • Where are these back up copies stored? (i.e. what is the physical location in the universe of the back up system or copies?
Let's see how you go with answering any of these questions with anything substantive. I doubt you'll even try, judging by past performance.

The Cesspool is looking more likely at this point. On the other hand, the UFOs, ghosts and monsters subforum floats barely above the cesspool most of the time anyway.

That was my original thought. But upon reflection I realized that, technically, there is no minimum requirement for a thread in the UG&M forum except that it be about Us, Gs or Ms. It doesn't specify that it can't be fabricated from whole cloth.

What is the difference between an idea and a fantasy notion?

Even if I did have the answers, answers only bring more questions.

  • What's the evidence that bodies can be "reanimated"?
  • What's the evidence for time travel?
Well these two are simple to answer

If you rewind time, a dead person would come back to life.
Time travel into the future would have to be impossible because otherwise free will can't exist, so time travel can only work backwards.

The difference is in whether or not the idea is defended.

Time travel, as it is generally accepted, is not quite the same thing as rewinding time.

Consider the analogy to a highway:
1. All the cars on the highway stop and shift into reverse until they're back at an earlier position. This is analogous to rewinding time. Everyone is affected.
2. You get off at an exit and head back the other way, then get back on. This is analogous to travelling backward in time. Only you are affected.

Time travel into the future would have to be impossible because otherwise free will can't exist, so time travel can only work backwards.
You are not thinking this all the way through. Time travel into the past also rules out free will, since I won't be able to shoot my own grandfather, resulting in me not being born.
 
New Fantasy Notion

The Ghost Orb is located where the Ghost's center of Gravity is located
 
New nonfantasy notion.

'Ghost orbs' are out of focus dust particles.
 
Ghosts can exist with out the need for religion to be real; Ghosts believe in religion and therefor, sending them to the 'light' by reading what ever they believed in, works as a placebo.
 
Every object has an electric field

Electron field and virtual electron field

The ghost field would be a virtual electron field

I can understand that if an object (or human body) generates a field (electron or otherwise), it would be the physical object/body that would generate and emit such a field (somehow?), but if the object disappears or the body dies and is buried/burned, what supports the generation and emission of the field afterward?

Interesting you should ask that, I'm working on what might be a break through in understanding the 4th spatial dimension. I believe the 4th spatial dimension is memory. In Physics, Electrons, use Imaginary numbers to be found ( I think) so therefor, the Electrons are remembering the object that created the field.
