The Spiritual Research Foundation's View on Alex the Grey
I don't know if this has been posted before, but it has been brought up on another site I'm on. The commentary was so incredibly amusing, I thought I'd throw it to you guys, and see what you could come up with.
The case of the talking parrot For those new to the world of Alex, here's a pretty good video to get you acquainted. YouTube - Goodbye to Alex a gifted parrot Unfortunately it's an obituary of sorts, but in 3 minutes or so it gives you a pretty good idea of how incredibly intelligent Alex was!

Does that mean that all of our talking parrots are "downgraded" souls of human beings?

Like I said on the other board, if each voice is a different deceased loved one, then Scarlett is possessed by at least 5 deceased loved ones, a neurotic robot, and an ice cream truck!

I love the bit about being reborn into a "lower species" if you get enough demerits--sounds like the Department of Motor Vehicles is in charge of the afterlife.----Arrrrgh! Tingo just pooped on my keyborad!!!
