I think I'd rather be in Frederick's control group.<g> Some folks think he just needed better scales. Or maybe some present day quacks need better integrity... Those that have come to believe this might be the case are investigating and carrying out more research and speaking to far more individuals who have had NDE's. Also terminally ill patients have been weighed in several countries and the results have been that at death there appears to be a 39 gram weight loss incurred, for which there is no apparent explanation other than it being the possibility that as the soul moves out of the physical body and it becomes 39 grams lighter approximately the weight of an egg. Therefore theories have been put forward to explain... angelfire.com Two researches, working independantly and having no contact with one another, one in Russia and the other in the United States, discovered that the body weighs less after death than before death. They took into account things like air leaving the lungs and the like.

They weighed 200 terminally ill patients just before and immediately after they died, finding a one-3,000th-ounce weight-loss in each case. In a letter to German science journal Horizon, Dr Becker Mertens said his team had taken into account other possible explanations of weight loss (such as air leaving the lungs), but that ?the inescapable conclusion is that we have now confirmed the existence of the human soul?. The challenge now was to ?figure out exactly what the soul was composed of?. Any takers? 216.239.39.100
