Hara means belly and kiri means to cut. Other concepts in Japanese culture pertaining to the belly are haraguroi, where guroi means black – ie someone wicked or not to be trusted and, in a term/concept where East meets West, haragei – a man of guts :-)

Neurons are a part of the human anatomy, why would science try to claim them as otherwise? Incorporeality is a modern scientific definition of a soul, probably because modern science was founded by religion and like religion, would prefer humanity to remain stunted and stay in the brainbox. A genuine astrologer is one modern science ignores, a charlatan one modern science accepts.

It's to do with the thread because my advice, (in answer the question put about evidence of stone cirles being 'ceremonial') was to discount scientific 'evidence' for the purpose of understanding what stone cirles were for. I gave a couple of easy examples & you disagreed.

I'd say, without proof or evidence, that stone circles were for matters of greater importance than only ceremony, based on the massive undertaking required to construct them.
