Man that's so cool. Would expect more insights on the afterlife, though... haha..

Well, I've reached this far by now:
Soul cannot have memories (those are imprinted in our brains) or "personality" (for the same reason).
Can't help having the feeling that there is a really radical defference on a person 1 second before he dies and one second after. The whole "permanent effect" of death is what forces my stupid mind to think that there is something "leaving" our body when it disfunctions that will not "return" if we "fix" it. Ben your example (though it is quite cool) does not qualify as "coming back from the dead".

Let me put it this way:
If i cut your head... you will probably die... but if I had a way of "stiching" your head back, you wouldn't live again.
If we compare my body 5 minutes after I am dead to 5 minutes before... cmon man there would not be a REALLY big difference in my physiology... exept the "dead" thing...
So is there something leaving our body when we die? That cannot return if we "undie" physically?
