About This Quote
There was a time when people believed that the soul left the body and went to an afterlife. The belief that we lived on after we died was called "soul". Everyone believed in this idea, and it gave the people who died a sense of purpose. In the old days, everyone was very religious.
Today, however, there is no need to believe in "soul" because we have technology to allow us to communicate with our dead relatives. Death is the person who takes away souls from their bodies. So you can call Death if you want to talk to your relatives or friends who have died.
Some people do not go to a place called Heaven or Hell after they die. They just stay at home and enjoy being alive again.
