You appear to be confusing some sort of mystical concept with scientific observations. Let's see if we could perhaps devise some tests of your theory.
1: We could show the stage at which this force begins in human beings. Difficult, since everything you are is already "alive" before it even becomes "you", but hey if it were easy you'd be here presenting actual evidence right?
2: We could show evidence for the requirements of a soul and afterlife...sight without eyes, sound without ears, thought without brain function. There are plenty of cadavers around, we could just start asking them questions about the afterlife no?
3: Well maybe we're asking too much of cadavers, perhaps we should ask toddlers questions about their pre-lives (if you'll let the children have pre-lives to go with their after-lives of course....and remember, it's for the children), Obviously, their stories will differ wildly, imaginative lot, but if we canvass enough, and similarities between narratives with no explanation in cultural pressure would definitely give us something to work with.
4: We could disprove a few laws of thermodynamics, turn biology on its head, and then, from sciences weakened position we could assert ours as an alternative....of course we'd still only had proof that science was wrong, not so much that the afterlife exists.
Go forth and discover!
