A friend and I are arguing over ghosts.

I think it’s akin to astrology, homeopathy and palm reading. He says there’s “convincing “ evidence for its existence. He also took up company time to make a meme to illustrate our relative positions. (See image)

(To be fair, I’m also on the clock right now)

What do you think?

    Technically, if he is convinced then it’s convincing evidence. The fact that you and I are not convinced is a separate matter.

    What is a reasonable person?

    A 100% rational person? Probably not. A person who was smart enough to do well in school and keep a well paying job? Yes.
