Ghost stories
I was on my way out to the rope slide with a group of students and some children from our campschool (It's a major part of our CAS program) when another student called my name and came running over.
"Do you believe in ghosts" he said. That's an easy one "no" I replied. "Why not". "Well they don't obey the laws of physics, they can go through walls and stuff. Well if they do exist then they aren't part of our physical world which they're not suppose to be anyway are they. Maybe spiritual isn't physical". Talk fast and maybe he'll go away. "What do you mean not physical". Blast he's still here. "I mean they don't fit in with our physical models, that matter should interact in certain ways." "But what if the laws are wrong" hmm, here we go and he went on. "You see we were having a discussion in the chemistry class and the physics students were disagreeing with the chemists. The physics students said that nothing could travel faster than the speed of light because it was against the laws of physics, but what if the laws are wrong?" "The theory that says that bodies with mass can not travel at the speed of light is based on certain postulates which have strong experimental support, what is your theory that particles with mass can travel at the speed of light based on?" Then he left.
