YOUR FAITH ASSERTS THE EXISTENCE OF AN IMMATERIAL COMPONENT UNIQUE TO EACH INDIVIDUAL, WHICH YOU CALL A SOUL; IS THIS "SOUL" AN EMERGENT PHENONENON
INHERENT TO THE RELATIVE COMPLEXITIES OF
THE HUMANOID ORGANSIM, OR DO YOU CONCEDE
THAT IT IS LOST THE FIRST TIME SOMEONE IS
DISINTEGRATED AND RECONSTITUTED
USING ONE OF YOUR TRANSPORTERS? FOLLOW-UP QUESTION: IF THE SOUL FOLLOWS THE ENERGY STREAM A PERSON IS CONVERTED INTO VIA TRANSPORTER, DID RIKER'S TRANSPORTER DUPLICATE "THOMAS" HAVE A DUPLICATE SOUL, OR WAS HE A MERE
SOULLESS SIMULACRA OF THE ORIGINAL RIKER?
