Then you should have no problem removing your eyeball. It's not a part of you after all.

It's just a suit right? Take the suit off, and leave. If you do not want to cling to the physical world, let go of it and leave, because at this point we could use the space.

What do cars have to do with this? Do you break your eyes and stab your feet when you leave the body? The analogy does not compute.
I think he/she is using the car anology to compare to the vehicle that is our bodies. It computes to me. This has nothing to do with leaving the body, I believe the point he/she was making was that you would not compromise your vehicle if you still plan to use it...

You're inhaling and drinking precious resources to maintain a meat suit you could care less about
that's why many scientists don't like to look at the quantum world as it shakes the belief system of the physical world they hold dear.
Mind and matter, body and soul, are simply two ways to name one thing. What is left of the soul in our discourse is in direct proportion to what we do not yet understand about the body. The veil you are trying to lift is a linguistic one.
It's an analogy. It shouldn't be taken literally. But you already know that I think you are just enjoying arguing with people
Everytime I see your avatar I have a hard time stopping my right hand form going to my temple. My hand maybe part of me but reflexively not under my control. Maybe my mind is not part of me or is part of me but only whilst in this mortal coil.
Sometimes the words escape me.
On a quantum level there is more space than matter. Whats the problem? There is no scarcity of resources only what you have been led to believe by those who wish to keep prices artificially high. But to research that you would have to look outside your closed mind (no offence meant)
