Aside from the faith-based belief that there exists a soul, is there any good reason to suppose that a soul does in fact exist? [Spirituality & Religion]

@Celine interesting though that he did do the same experiment on 12 dogs with no weight change.

i just found this based on 20o subjects done by communist scientists in east germany. In each case the weight loss was exactly the same–1/3,000th of an ounce.they als looked at whether or not it was spontaneous body degeneration and found it was not. interesting they felt it was the soul. ymmv

@Celine it is interesting from a faith standpoint only humans have souls so they should not and did not lose weight. here's the link you asked for. i am by no means an expert so i have no idea the validity of the study.
