Lack of evidence does not make something false. Perhaps at a later date, when we are more technologically advanced and have more knowledge, we could detect a soul. Keith: To be rational, beliefs must be based on evidence. Lack of evidence makes the claim (that 'souls' exist) arbitrary. It is irrational to believe even that we could detect a soul, sans evidence.

You just proved my point. The act of perceiving one's consciousness is actually being conscious. Consciousness is really just a complex perception. Keith: I disagree. Consciousness is the process of organizing, analyzing, and integrating perceptions into a usable, functioning whole. Consciousness is not perception, any more than the skin is an organ of cognition.
