Actually, my point isn't to convince that the existance of spirits as much as to refute the (common) belief that having Faith in something outside of one-self is somehow attributed to being stupid, childish, or naive. My point is that one can be *both* intelligent and scientific, plus have faith in something beyond onself, and that having one doesn't imply the other can not exist. Basically, I believe that science paints one portion of the 'picture' of life, and faith paints another (equally important) part. Nate
