There are some who would argue this point with you. Some study where it was determined spirits or the supernatural were somehow weighed and the result was somewhere in ounces. 1 to 4 or something like that.

"Some study...showhow weighed...somewhere in ounces. 1 to 4 or something like that."
That's not an argument. Its not even a coherent assertion. Its more like something you'd stammer in a drunken stupor.
I concur with Dr. Shrinker.
LAET, a bum once told me:"Stripe, stripe, stripe, stripe, FIREHYDRANT!!"
So, I can see exactly where you're arguement is coming from.
"Some study where it was determined spirits or the supernatural were somehow weighed and the result was somewhere in ounces"
Unfuckinbelievable.
And these would no doubt be the same people that want to take science OUT of the science classroom and replace it with mythology?
I'd say we need MORE science, MUCH MORE. Judging from this post, they obviously aren't getting it from the current amount of science being taught.
The air in the lungs has mass. Old measurement methods were unreliable with a larger error range. The claim was that the weight of the person varied slightly after death. Even so, this could not be replicated reliably. You would then push the god of the gaps into the air anyway. Or in the leaking or evaporating water. Just like we haven't discovered a soul in the brain, so you will claim that the pineal gland is a gateway to the supernatural, without evidence. Or that the brain is only an antenna to the metaphysical soul, contradicting the evidence of neurology and the correlates of consciousness it has discovered. Motivated pseudointellectual pseudoscientific reasoning, to entertain dogmatic views, fantasies and to deny the reality of death.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
