The issue posed is whether utter destruction of soul-as-energy is appropriate for a metaphysical and religiously-oriented saga, which is a different kind of discussion. There are ways to simulate the "death" of a soul without requiring its annihilation, thus maintaining the integrity of the story. I have gratefully accepted the replies of the page contributors and consider the matter closed. Regards

I'm aware that you consider this matter closed, but if you post a statement like this on an open forum, then you're inviting to a discussion imo. ^^

First, you can't use physics as a guide, to explain the concept of what "soul energy" is, or how it can be manipulated? The very existence of souls has not been scientifically proven in the first place. If souls do exist, there's no telling what rules they are bound by.

Second, to me, religious belief is not something that is bound by rules and logic (granted, billions of people believe that it is) It is something unique to each individual, and if some believe that the destruction of a soul is possible, then who are we to question that?
