My husband would probably look at me like I was nuts. <BR/><BR/>Solshine<BR/><BR/>I think that's why sci-fi will always have an audience. We're curious like that. <BR/><BR/>Avery<BR/><BR/>Lol. Not pointless at all. I think that's what I was going for when I mentioned I, Robot. It's kind of the same thing. No matter what form life takes, it's the soul that matters.SQThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04251030404220909306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55282503134540185.post-44480270421598393242008-03-16T12:45:00.000-07:002008-03-16T12:45:00.000-07:00The question of soul-possession is one that brings...The question of soul-possession is one that brings me to "Buffy" and how much of the show revolved around who had a soul and who didn't. Angel had a soul forced on him, but would revert straight back to Angelus (the bad vampire for you haters out there) the minute his soul was removed. Spike, on the other hand, just had a chip put in his head to stop him from harming people. Still, with only a demon soul, he began to figure out how to be more human, and eventually realized he needed his soul back to truly act like a human. The differences between the two souled vampires always made me wonder what would happen if someone popped Spike's human soul out of him. I'd bet he wouldn't revert totally back to his old ways, since he'd already learned to cope without a soul. <BR/><BR/>This was a totally pointless response, but I'd always thought about that, and what it meant about the value of one's soul. Operating by those rules, I'd say it wasn't about the soul, per se, but more about the ensouled.<BR/><BR/>Yeah. That was pointless.

A main component of science fiction is about asking all those "big questions" and that's why it connects with so many people. <BR/><BR/>"The Truth is out there"Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06039130895443623988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55282503134540185.post-33111150733376633852008-03-14T11:24:00.000-07:002008-03-14T11:24:00.000-07:00Very interesting post.
