Defence Against the Dark Arts = DADA?
I know DADAism was an philosophical/art movement, but I didn't know it was
taught at Hogwarts :-)

For us older Brits, that can remember when there was only one TV channel, it
will be called "Potter's Wheel (The Intermission)"

I'd like to know whereabout in the body this supposed 'soul' is.
Why haven't any doctors found one yet?
It's not described in any medical textbooks.

So you are claiming that a dead person is exactly the same as a living
person.

Errr...no?
What makes you think that we make that claim?
I have seen lots of living people and hundreds of dead people.
Even I can tell there is a difference between them, like breathing, for
example.
You know, it's really hard work having conversations with you - you seem to
be completely clueless about the simplest things.
