Fred the Scientist said that the soul leaves the body
but the soul never leaves the world. Think of it, Fred
said, as an electric current, connected to, say, a toaster.
Yes, you remove the plug from the wall, but that doesn’t
mean that electricity no longer exists. Electricity is still coursingthrough the veins of your house. Electricity is
like the soul. The soul is electric. The fiery light lives
forever. The only thing that is not immortal, Fred said,
between bites, is a lightning bolt, I mean, is toast.
