please tell us how you know.

Since no one knows exactly what "life" is how can anyone know what
makes up "life" We know when it begins, we know when it dies, we know
who is alive- we don't know why we exist or in many cases we aren't
even sure when someone loses their life except by machine measurements
which can be wrong also.

living being does that from instinct.

What is 15 yrs. in the course of time? Less than a flicker in the

someone shows us what a "soul" is- if one exists.
