non-physical ontos, entity. This corresponding entity
ostensibly incorporates a dimension of our being
which, in principle, can never be tackled with the
instruments and the formal logic of science. A compromise
was proposed long ago: the soul is nothing but our
self awareness or the way that we experience ourselves.
