    Sure, you make a point

    A bike isn't a living organism, though, it is inanimate matter. Take oxygen for example which is inanimate matter as well - oxygen enters your lungs and then your bloodstream, travels to cells, and so on. Point I am making is, oxygen doesn't carry a vital force and inanimate materials that make up your body have no special quality of life about them in themselves.

    What we're speaking about here is a soul, stricte metaphysically. And that frog can be replaced by that monster Frankenstein put together and gave it life.

    Oh on somewhat unrelated note, there were experiments done on dogs in SU/Africa that brought back to life dead dogs. I mean dogs with their heads severed off and sewn on again.

    You believe in a soul, lecky?
