Some of this energy holds the interatomic matter together, other ("the Source") consolidates into the soul? So this is the locus of interaction, eh? Rene Descartes was right...find the locus of interaction and you solve the mind-body problem! (R.D. said the place where mind and soul interact (oops, brain and soul) was the pineal gland, because it was an unduplicated neurological structure.) Sorry, charlie, this gluon-soul stuff does not explain, it just explains away. This soul-brain stuff is a tough nut to crack; that's why we need to go back before the invention of these really poor terms and pursue an entirely different path. P.S. Is there a critical level of gluons? Do living bodies have excess gluons, which are "lost" as the person loses it's soul? Please, moulton!mug, elaborate and post some more of this excerpt. I would like to know where he's coming from. David
