Undeniable Fact: Flying Soul-o

Thursday, September 28, 2006

Recent studies make a pretty compelling case that identical twins actually share a single soul. This does a lot to explain some of the seemingly "paranormal" phenomena surrounding them. Of course, if there's an afterlife, this means that twins will manifest there as a single entity.

Hmmm... does this mean, when they die, each of them loses 10,5 grams?

11 grams, actually.

But according to my calculations, 21 grams divided by 2 is 10,5 grams!

Did you factor in the inflation rate of souls?

Science and medicine seeks naturalistic accounts of the observable natural world. This stance is known as methodological naturalism, which is silent on the question of whether non-material or supernatural entities, such as the soul, can or do exist as distinct from natural entities. Scientists, therefore, investigate the soul as a human belief or as concept that shapes cognition and understanding of the world, rather than as an entity in and of itself.
