Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

But how often must we make decisions based on incomplete information in our lives? Usually not such serious ones though. It's not meant to be scientific, I just thought it was fun.
I'm fine with incomplete information, but they presented conflicting information, at least in my eyes.
By defining the "soul" as we understand it in common usage, the very concept of "soul death" is only comparable to actual death, so by stating that people do live without them, they're effectively invalidating the idea of a soul as understood in the first place.
Let me be clear, I understand the point they are trying to make, and I understand that this very sticking point is the crux of the question. But I still feel they are invalidating their own question by acknowledging folks do wake up post-"soul death."
You are correct and I concede.
