Comment:
The assertions by Crosswalk that a ghost is the same as a spirit and the same as a
soul are not completely correct. A self consists of the combination of a spirit
and a soul. A spirit is a volition. A soul is a memory . The word "ghost" is
apparently used to mean the combination of a spirit and a soul (a volition and a
memory), rather than either spirit or soul by itself.
