"I keep hearing people say that there is scientific evidence that the soul exists because when the body expires, it weighs a minute amount less that when it was alive. This, they argue, is the soul escaping from its shell to heaven. True, God did animate Adam by infusing within him the breath of life in Genesis, but if the soul can be physically measured, is its value related to its size? I have more gastrointestinal fluids than soul."
