hmmk seriously for a second,
If he was dead for 2 years,and we can all agree he was dead dead captial DEAD. Where was his soul during all of this, when they brought him back, wouldnt he be like
'damnit, was having fun on cloud 9 with 2pac and theoriginal professor dumbledor, then god tells me some jack asses have rebuilt my body better go back down there'
Shepard acts like hes been asleep for two years, so either bioware wanted to avoid the issue, or they are making a sly atheist statement.
Teehee... that's not what the 3 great faiths say about death. Death in Christianity, Judaism and Islam is centralized around something called the Resurrection. These faiths acknowledge the required symbiosis behind soul AND body in order for sentience to be experienced. To quote Solomon "For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not anything,
neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is
forgotten. As well their love, as their hatred and their envy, is
perished long ago; neither have they any more a portion for ever in
anything that is done under the sun” (9:5,6 – ASV).
You are DEAD or as others call it "sleeping".
The afterlife is literally a physical rebirth where you are given a new PERFECT physical body.
Nobody who is raised correctly in these faiths who have actually read their religious texts believes in an ETHERAL afterlife. All that garbage came after Plato started basterdizing Christian values when he had a problem with the "waiting period" between death and the afterlife.
