Das stärkste Argument gegen den Totalitarismus mag die Anerkennung einer universellen menschlichen Natur sein; dass alle Menschen angeborene Wünsche nach Leben, Freiheit und Streben nach Glück haben. Die Lehre vom leeren Schiefer ... ist der Traum eines Totalitaristen.

I think the word 'soul' - it depends on what you define by 'soul.' If you're defining it as a mystical aura that is outside the body, I cannot measure that.
