BTW, I really enjoyed your website.  Interesting

articles, don't get me wrong, I believe in most of

your thoughts.  My previous email was not to support

religion but ask your opinion on the two arguments.

Also, you are flawed in one comment on your site

regarding eternal life.  My friend who is a phd

chemist(ie scientist, the most unreligious type of guy

ever)  and aethisest, does believe in eternal life but

not in the sense of the Bible religious type.

explaination:  because of his science background, he

knows for a fact that matter cannot be destroyed nor

created.  It merely changes form.  Human beings exrt

kinetic energy.  He asserts that it is impossible for

this energy to simply dissapate upon death.

Therefore, he speculates that there are spirit types

around (and no not the ghost kind) but simply energy

masses that for some reason continue to "float around"

and cause ghjost like phenomenons.  he is currently

experimenting with human kinetic energy and this

"ghost" or "spirit" phenomennon.
