Religion, the most successful scam on earth. Gullible people will happily detonate high explosives packed on their bodies, so effective is this con job.
Magnetic fields and electro magnetic radiation including X rays and radio waves all fit into your rules along with the humble electron but we do not doubt there existence. Look up at the sky on a starry night. All these stars are different distances away so you are seeing each at a different time in its past. The star on the left could be 2 light years away and the one on the right could be 8. The star in the middle may no longer exist at all. So what your eyes are telling you is not actually true and never was.
So because our senses are only equipped to a very limited input, we really are ill equipped to make absolute decisions and analysis! There are more things in heaven and earth......
If you want some wild theories by so called scientists....check out string theory!
jc320: There have been a number of claims that studies show a living human who dies weighs slightly less just after the moment of death. This would suggest that something leaves the body. The "scientific experiments" are a little unscientific but its certainly thought provoking.

I must admit I had a good laugh. “Satan” hates us for not believing in god so much, he creates a place where he can torture our souls forever. Sounds to me like god and satan have a romantic relationship going on there bro.

even if it wasn’t a popular myth, air is not weightless. Your lungs can hold up to 5 litters of air 1 litter being equivalent to 1. kg upon death some air leaves the lungs and it can result in loss of weight.

It's questionable as to why humanity feels the need to continue... in fact, why even fear death? It's the only thing we can be sure of... our ticket out.

That's one of Tolkien's riddles in The Hobbit. It lies behind stars and under hills and empty holes it fills. It comes first and follows after ends life kills laughter...

"The rebellion of the hobbits and the restoration of the pre-industrial Shire may be interpreted as a prescription of voluntary simplicity as a remedy to the problems of modern society." ~Wiki
"When we take the gods as facts, rather than metaphors, then we get lost in debating the merits of the facts rather than apprehending their meaning. The fundamentalist ties his or her beliefs to the facts and narrows the spiritual vitality by fighting rear-guard actions against disputation. On the other hand, the atheist disputes the evidence, gets confused by the institutional forms to which he or she has been exposed, and misses the possible deepening which occurs whenever one confronts the meaning of divinity." ~James Hollis

Actually,that's the weight of one liter of Water you're quoting!
You become a spirit in body form but on a diff. plain but go to heaven to be judged and be separated wheat from chaff there is no middle ground there's a great gulf fixed in between heaven and hell.They both are very real and you will face God to be judged so think about what you have done in life and repent because heaven is wonderful.

For alot of people and myself being a Catholic, I believe that I will go to Purgatory first, God willing eventually I will make it to Heaven. Because so many of us die without a cleansed soul we have to go to Purgatory first. There are exceptions of course and there are souls that make it directly to Heaven. There are also lost souls that go directly to Hell.
It's sad to see how many take this topic so lightly and are so disrespectful. Our lives on this Earth are very short compared to all eternity.
Personally, I believe the soul is eternal. Earth is the classroom by which we progress (or regress) on our karmic path. After we pass on I think we go to a different plane, where we rest, review and refresh. We catch up with loved ones that passed before us and also the ones that didnt incarnate with us this time around.
I think when we feel ready, we incarnate yet again and continue on our journey to once again face the karma we have created and hopefully learn and grow in spirit.
