What, then, differentiates you and your family from owls, jelly fish,
snakes, crows, mules, ants, country bugs, butterflies or worms?
P.S. Time for break (to warm up some Quiche and watch the news)..
And I predict that you will not be back to actually discuss the concept of the soul. I've been frequenting this forum for a number of years, and not once has a theist been willing to discuss it in detail.

Originally posted by RJHindsRJ, you're presuming to mess around with choices that are their sole prerogative to make. God Almighty Respects the Volition of OdBod and twhitehead (as well as the freedom to choose of every person that's ever lived). How can any of us do less? As in the Army, Mission First. Failure's Not an Option. Their degrees of knowledge and/or ignornance = none of my biz or yours. If they "would rather fight the pigs for the hog slop", simply watch or walk away. We're here to shed light, not to ridicule or judge.
