well, Amos....I suspect that when I leave my body, it will be because I am NOT healthy...*big grin*.....(and I am not telling anyone what to think, either...not that it would do any good anyway.)

as to.... "The role of soul is as much a part of the mix as the role of energy itself, I suspect."........I can see 'energy' on a meter..(I get a bill each month for one type, and I watch other types manefested in various ways every day)...but in the 50 years I have been seriously looking, I have not seen anything ....repeat, with emphasis, **ANYTHING**....that could not be explained some other way besides referring to a soul. (Yeah, yeah, I have been told that I unfortunately didn't get 'wired' properly...*even bigger grin*)....but I have never seen a ghost, a flying saucer, an aura, or heard 'voices' or "felt a spirit move over me"... I HAVE experienced many emotions and seen things I couldn't see the immediate causes of, but it simply never occurred to me to attribute them to the supernatural.   

*shrug*....You can guess how many times in 6 years here I have NOT bothered to post my bemused sceptical viewpoint....
