If the presumed context of "ghosts" are lost souls, then no. We believe that after death, the soul goes out of the body and go to either Heaven or Hell as it's final destination.

On the other hand, if the presumed context of "ghosts" are evil spirits/demonic beings, then yes. We believe that these are fallen angels that manipulate the minds of people.

As a long-time study of the paranormal and a Baptist, I can confirm that the Baptist position on ghosts, and the general consensus among Bible-believing, church-going Christians, is that ghosts (as spirits of dead humans) is not something we believe in.

Yes, although for Mormons the term Hell is slightly ambiguous, and could mean a few different things within their view of the afterlife, these are outlined as follows:

1. Spirit Prison:

Where the spirits of deceased people who died without the gospel of Jesus Christ, or who were disobedient. This is a temporary state which will end with the Resurrection of all the dead.

2. Outer Darkness:

Where Satan and the spirits that follow him dwell. This is a place that is permanently separated from God, for a man to end up there, he must believe in God, but follow Satan.

3. Mormons believe that there are many degrees of glory that someone can receive after the Resurrection, and, in a sense, any of the degrees of glory, except for the highest, could be considered Hell because they aren't constantly with God.

In scripture, context must be considered when interpreting which of these is being referenced as Hell.

Probably, soul travel, reincarnation ( called something else) and eventually a preoccupation with the lives of the dead- spirit baptism for deceased souls- even long-dead historical personalities- all gravitate in this direction, only Ghosts aren"t effected by gravity or they could not walk through walls, right? Mormons do not believe in ghosts, as in the things that haunt you and roam the earth after death with unfinished business.

They do believe in life after death, and that after death the spirits of the dead may visit the earth, but this would only be to give someone important information or to provide comfort, assistance, or protection. The spirits appear in the form of men, not cloudy blobs like Casper. They also believe that eventually, all men will be resurrected, (the soul will be reunited with the body after death) just as Jesus Christ was. They often refer to the "Holy Ghost", this is the same as the "Holy Spirit".

If something is haunting or does not appear to have the body of a person, it is of Satan, not a spirit pr ghost of a person.

Yes. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called "Mormons") believe that the resurrection of Jesus Christ was one of the single most important events in all history. They believe that because Jesus Christ overcame death, we also will overcome death and receive a resurrection as well.

We believe that they can't haunt people are anything. When people die we believe that their spirit is separated from their body and waits in heaven for everyone to be judged.

Do Mormons believe they will be gods and Does Brooke White believe she will be one of the God-wives?

I don't know who Brooke White is but Mormons believe they can become gods, IF they do certain ceremonies in the temple and keep the vows they make there. Not all Mormons believe they will become gods, because not all Mormons go to the temple and do the ceremonies they believe are required. They do not believe they will become gods but they do believe they will be able to become more like Jesus and god.

What are the bad things that they say about Mormons?

Many things that people say against Mormons simply come from someone who is uninformed or has a different opinion. This does not mean that it is bad, but it is often offensive. Those who are uninformed or misinformed often say: -Mormons are polygamist (this practice was banned by the church over 120 years ago in 1890) -Mormons dont believe in the Bible (Mormons consider the King James Version of the Bible as sacred scripture and are encouraged to study it daily) -Mormons don't believe in Jesus (Mormons believe that Jesus Christ is their Savior, just like all Christians) -Mormons are cultish (Mormons live and dress and act just like most anyone else in society. They do not live on compunds, etc.) -Mormons worship Joseph Smith (Mormons believe Joseph Smith was a prophet, just like Moses or Abraham, not a god to be worshipped) -Mormons kidnap, brainwash, coerce, etc (Mormons wish everyone to make their own decisions, and define their standards by Scripture) Those who have different opinions and say things that are offensive to Mormons often say: -Mormons are not Christian (Mormons are not traditional Protestant Christians, but they do still believe in the Bible and salvation through Jesus Christ.) -Mormons are lying (Mormons honestly believe they are telling the truth) -Mormonism is a pyramid scheme (Mormons believe in paying a Tithe and in missions work to gain converts, but believe this is Biblically based and do not seek converts for monetary gain) -Mormons are unbiblical (Mormons believe that they are following the Bible very strictly, but the Bible can be interpreted differently by different people) -Mormonism is false (this is obviously just an opinion, but one that is often offensive to those who honestly believe)


Do Mormons get their own planet if they have 9 or more kids?

Mormons do not believe that quantity of kids has anything to do with salvation. Mormons have more than the average amount of kids because they believe in family. Mormons believe salvation consists of receving all that God has. The idea of Mormons receiving their own planet is a bit of saracsm that is pushed by those who do not like the church.
