Call it what you like. At least I have something. If I die and find out that I was wrong, then I lose nothing. I you die and find out that you were wrong, then you lose everything.

I never said that I could prove it. Can you prove that they don't have eternal souls?
I however can watch a corpse for a long time and have it remain inert . You cannot call back a departed soul and have him dance a jig for me , speak , or even run up to the liquor store for a pack of smokes .
Score that round ; Crow 1 , godboy 0 .
Game , set , match - Crow 2 , loser2bucker 1 .
Next question ?
