See? somebody comes up with a really interesting idea, the government decides to fund it and the lowest bidders come out of the woodwork.
No wonder these things never work!
That's a ridiculous falsehood. I don't know who we is. I don't know how long, long is. And your cloudy explanation that the brain is the "source" of the soul is a vague juxtaposition of a mixture of philosophy and cultism and logic.
Almost any thought experiment or even general sentiment among all who have one can conclude that the soul exists for the majority of it's eternity without a brain at all.
I will agree that the symbiosis of the two brings us to the mystery where we are now as to ask WHY.
But that's not what you said.
You just muttered some seemingly innocuous gibberish that has monstrous implications were it to be true, and got modded insightful by people with undoubtedly big souls and small brains.
Please stop interpreting scripture on your own. You're not good at it. People that insist they have all the answers -- don't.
I don't mind you taking a stab at it, but this is Slashdot after all. What's the point? Launching ALL of the worlds nuclear weapons at once, would probably get rid of just enough of the assholes to let the remaining ones enjoy a few thousand years of relative peace. Blow your matches boys.
I wish all the people that think we are doomed would just leave.

In much the same way that 50 inane AC responses does equal the coherency of the parent. Invariably, like a game of "telephone", the subject switches to cars.
-reading at -1 is the only true freedom. Moderation is an oxymoron.
one of the world's greatest physicists and cosmologists. He's not even in the top 10. I doubt anyone outside the industry could name 10 physicists anyway. However, he has conditioned the public to accept his stupid statements, like 'We won't survive another 1,000 years without escaping our fragile planet.' only to retract them later to equal fanfare.
