Besides, a "soul" can be understood in so many ways, and I believe in the scientific way better than the religious one.

is there a scientific defenition of a soul? I've never heard it before. could you tell us?[/b][/quote]
Aristotle defended that the soul and the body are inseparable. The soul would be something resembling a personality, containing our desires, principles and emotions. I personally agree with Piaget, those things can be/are influenced by one's surroundings. Looking back in my past, I can find at least one reason for anything I have interest in, wouldn't you agree?
Another issue that puzzles me: It's written in the Bible that if you live a good life, your gift would be to stay on Earth. So heaven is the place where the evil/not so good souls go when their bodies die (If you believe in ethereality of the soul). I haven't been in a mass for years, but I think the priest kinda teaches the opposite?
Kill, desire, envy, enrage, be lazy, eat more than you can possibly imagine and ultimately commit suicide, and you'll have heaven's doors wide open for you.
