Souls and Algorithms

There is very little known about our souls. Apparently it doesn't weigh anything. However, if you put a soul in a body then this weightless thing start functioning.

Consider the following computer program.

(define flipflop
  (let ((state 0))
     (lambda ()
        (set! state (- 1 state))
        state)))

This program is written in a computer language called Scheme. It returns a 1 and then a 0 and then a 1 and so on. What is interesting about this program is that it doesn't weigh anything. And if you put it in the right place in the computer, then it can do what it is meant to do. Interesting similarity!
