"And one can start to suggest properties that
beings with souls have which might be verified or disproven."

And how would one establish a that these properties do indeed establish that
the being who possesses them has a soul? Would this be a falsifiable
criteria?

"And Mark (correct me if I'm
wrong) seemed to suggesting that the Bahai writings might contain
factual errors but he would still "believe in them" and it was at that
point that I wondered what it could mean to believe in writings when
you don't actually believe that they are factually true."

It might mean that the scriptures aren't about whether there were six or
seven or a dog in the cave. ;-}

warmest, Susan
