This topic and all the comments it generated in the last post has been fascinating. I am writing next week’s HNN article about it right now. I’ve grown curious to know how many of you believe in the continued existence of the soul after death. Even more than that I wonder if [...]
There was a request that I ask Dale McGowan in his interview if he believes we have a soul, and if so, where it goes when we die. The question didn’t really fit with the others so I am posting his answer here in a new post.

Today I am going to add an additional activity to what we did last year. I’m still working it out in my brain but I think I am going to explore color with the kids as a metaphor for how all of life is [...]
