Can't have it both ways.
Ghosts are limited, God is unlimited in every way.
Ghosts are collegiate runners who graduated but still come back to visit the team and haunt the courses at important meets.

I'm a ghost!

For you to assert that agnostics think science is fallible while atheists think to the contrary is slightly ridiculous.
science is fallible, and theories are revised all the time. however, the requirement is PROOF....EVIDENCE....and results that can be repeated in other labs.
To say that science is a religion is absurd. Just because people do not UNDERSTAND scientific method does not mean it is invalid.
Ghosts = God(s). they are all the same - convenient ideas that are not even wrong.
If you do not believe in ghost, how do you explain this video that caught Michael Jackson live on Larry King?
That video has been thoroughly debunked.
I believe in the shoe by Brooks. Does that count?
For those that are not aware, it has already been proven by science that we have a spirit that arises from outside our body, as systematically explained and proven in these two videos:

Another fact this speech mentions that is relevant to runners that has been proven but is only just now making it mainstream is that ***genetics does not work how we have been taught.***
Genes are not a "one-way street", so to speak. We are not just born with genes and then say "well, that's it, my life is all planned out, time to go through the motions". That's a very disempowering view, and a scientifically unfounded one at that.
The truth is that we are constantly affecting which and how our genes are expressed, as well as possibly even changing the very genes themselves, through our environment. This includes outside influences as well as our own thoughts, feelings, and habits.
If you choose not to believe these, that is fine, you are free to do so.
I personally have found both of these facts to be more empowering and useful to hold than their outdated opposites.
But like I said, it's your choice if you want to embrace them, it makes no difference to me.

Exactly.
It's really not all the new of a concept, just new to becoming accepted by mainstream scientists and the public.
Old paradigms are hard to break.

Bull SH!T.
There is no "spirit" and there is nothing even remotely resembling proof of a "spirit".

Really? It's been proven?
And by Bruce Lipton?!
HA!
Who's Bruce Lipton, you may ask? Why, just another 'quack scammer':
http://ways.org/en/node/40942Like I said, you don't have to believe it.
If you are interest in what's true and what's fake, I'd suggest you begin the practice of observing things yourself and deciding whether or not you believe it to be true, rather than relying on someone else's judgement of an idea or person.
You don't understand the scientific method at all. Have you ever studied it?

I think his point revolved around the fact that step 1, form a hypothesis, is little more than an educated guess. The remaining steps are ways to validate (or disprove) the hypotheses. But, that first step really is a "leap of faith". Scientists just wouldn't put it that way because they like the idea of neutrality and objectivity...something faith cannot have any part of. You freaking antisemite.
Epigenetics is a very valid field of study but Bruce Lipton's interpretation of this field is way off base and is not based in science. It is like how crazy quakes take concepts from physics they don't understand and apply it to their favorite crazy belief. If you believe in ghosts then do you also believe in unicorns, lepricons, fairies, giants, werewolves, or big foot? If not why not? If your only standard by which to believe something is whether people claim to have seen it then you must believe in all these things and many more.

Also if your standard of what to believe is based solely in the bible, then do you believe in giants, cockatrices, behemoths, dragons, satyrs, leviathans, unicorns, serpents and other monsters?
