I have never thought it strange that so many people do not believe in God. What I find peculiar is the number of people, many of them sane and sensible friends of mine, who do not believe in ghosts.

As GK Chesterton pointed out: “If it comes to human testimony there is a choking cataract of human testimony in favour of the supernatural.” No one, as the Bible reminds us, has seen God, but hundreds of reliable witnesses have described a huge variety of apparitions, many of which have been seen by several people and so cannot be dismissed as the result of some kind of mental aberration on the part of a disturbed individual.
