The problem is double standards, Blacks who use "the N word" offend people of all ethnicities, so do whites. It is not ok to excuse derogatory language simply because you are a member of the maligned group. It doesn't give you the right to forbid someone else to be offended. I believe in free speech and the right to be offended by someone else's speech, regardless of ethnicity. Reverse discrimination is still discrimination.
When I was a child I thought as a child, things that seemed important (like celeb-bratties) I kept track of; but now such things seem childish and I no longer care. But I can name all 12 apostles, the dates of WWII battles and why I don't like either of the two major party's candidates for president of the United States.
I don't know about "statisically significant" it is a fraction of a fraction of a gram but I have read studies that show that just before a person dies they weigh more than just after they die. This is taking into accout the air in their lungs and all measurable other factors. So yes, I believe the soul has weight. I think that a person's spirit is separate from but includes will, intellect and memory and these are taken from the body by the spirit when it leaves the body.
