Words can be seen as place holders if there is no meaning connected to them. You insist your meaning is right, I insist my meaning is right, doesn't lead us anywhere. That's why I made a suggestion you developed a meaning repository of "soul" for us to be able to enter a meaningful conversation with you instead of being confronted with what I perceive as empty place holder interjections in an otherwise interesting thread continuation.
But you can twist, offend, insult, attack - fools and children are always forgiven. My problem is that I take it serious what you are doing and saying here. And I get my punishment.
