I must have deleted the message and response from Newburg as the only thing I can still find in my stored e-mails is this exchange between myself and a friend about the topic:

Kerry,

Funny, I just "scanned" or did I "skim" Newburg and Aquili's book on
Saturday night at Borders. I wanted to see what our philosophy guy here,
William Hasker, thought of it. His recent book is _The Emergent Self_, which sort-of examines the issue of the soul from a non-dualistic approach (thus, emergent, as in emergent from and always with a body).

Blessings,

Joe Ricke

Joe:
Thought you might be interested given our previous exchange? I sent an e-mail to Newburg asking if he'd ever done brain scans of people speaking in tongues.
