I will get the Right Answer to that Sooner or Later and I won't need previous explanation.

ALWAYS consider the source! Our brain is a fine tuned instrument which rules everything in us. No one really knows for sure no matter what they came to be, experts or not.

You mean biblical researchers?

But not consciousness. I am no scientist nor do I have a firm grasp of physics. But from what little I have read our energy continues but not our consciousness. I am perfectly content believing my energy becomes part of the universe and my "self" ceases.

I agree in general,though I take talk of quantum jumps into an eternal afterlife with a pinch of salt.

We are part of the universe and as such are immortal in that we can never die since mass/energy is eternal,we are are of something bigger than individual existences. Just we have been brought up to think of oursleves as separate fom the universe and that there is an "us" and then an "everything else outside of us" as if we are just bubbles appearing the vanishing before your eyes. Looking from a diffferent level,that is not what is going on though.We are too hung up and obssessed with our physical appearances/experiences.It's like children watching a magic show, what they see it not what is happening.

If this research is empirical, it can be replicated. Let a non religious researcher produce the same data and I will open minded consider it.

Actually Roger Primrose a devout Christian offer arguments for the existence of a cosmic consciousness not a soul but, the existence of the mind on a Quantum Level. His argument falls apart once applied to the physics of the macro universe.
He is a brilliant man but, in later years seems to be bent on wasting his talent to prove his faith.
As for the source it is a British tabloid with about as much creditability as the National Enquirer.

Yes, there's spirit or energy in living beings that does not die with the body.
It's not superstition or religion, it's a fact.

I think instead of "souls" they should have used the word "consciousness" or even "energy."
To claim that researchers claim anything without crediting the institution from whence these researchers research leaves such claims needing more than a little substantiation.

That "newspaper" (and I use that loosely) looks like a scandal magazine to me. I wouldn't trust anything I read from that. If it was a true scientific article, it would be in a scientific magazine.

Life after death as if everything is just as it was during life? Or, life after death as described in religious texts? No, I don't think we are capable of comprehending or describing whatever happens to our consciousness after death but I believe something continues.

Everything that exists in the universe including planets, stars and people are made of different combinations of the same stuff. And,nothing truly ends, whether it's matter, energy or space but things can change form. Burn wood and it releases energy creates gases and makes charcoal but everything that was wood is still there,but in different amounts and combinations.

It's conceivable that the whatever our consciousness is, can function in different contexts such as our earthly life as a by-product of sentience and electro-chemical brain activity or in a parallel universe, a different dimension or an altered state of consciousness.

Total bullshit. No science. Just a little quantum woo, and very little of that. Why did I waste my time with this crap?

I have a problem with the word 'soul' . It's a very religious term full of belief and faith connoctions.He seems to be trying to link Science with religious belief. It'd be marvellous if there was even a 'grain of truth' in it but it seems to me to be more like wishful thinking.
