Poly  because someone publishes something does not make it true,, it
makes it his opinion

You a re dealing with the paper of an atheist who is publishing what
he thinks is true..  It is no different that my saying what I think is
true..  For me what I say is valid...   what I am finding from this
discussion group and a friend ..  What I am finding is that there is a
God. and every one has a soul including mr dawkins and that soul is
what controls the body  not unlike your body driving a car.. with the
body being the soul and and the car playing the part of the body..
You can take the idea from there
