Ms Duck:
as to soul energy being relased by the destruction of matter.. its possible, but im not aware of people glowing light blue lately.
my theory is based upon the idea that:
Magic comes from living things
the energy for life comes from the sun
if a being has more energy than can be explained by solar output, then obviusly they have soem other source. th easiest explanation for this is the (largely proven) existance of other worlds to draw on.
;D

Mmm. Bob stated that Uriel is made of nothing but soul- and via a WOJ, he can obliterate planets just by thinking about it.
I think there is most definitely evidence that Souls are either (a) their own source of energy, or (b) their own material, from which energy can then be derived. The Darkhallow and most necromantic acts would be indicative of B, although (a) is also possible as Harry wound up 'discorporated' thanks to Eternal Silence in Ghost Story. Souls can be affected by things like time, other energies (Corpsetaker vs. Harry), will, and a lot of other 'primal' forces.
Harry danced around the subject of what would happen if he threw a punch with all his heart, soul, and mind behind it against the Skinwalker in Turn Coat. It's possible that by entwining Sacrificial energy with that derived from his soul, something on the level of God's son dying on the cross would have come charging out at Shaggy that night. And/or obliterated the island along with everything in Chicago, but again, Jim couldn't have Harry dead until the next book, so we missed out.
Overall, Duckie, do you think souls are their own form of energy- or that they're made of something, from which energy is derived? Or both?
Ms Duck:
I think Uriel is the Wg's agent, and can draw on Wg's power just like Harry can draw on Mabs'.. or Murphy can draw on Uriel's
;D
peregrine:
I wasn't saying that soulpower is directly connected to converting matter into energy, but metaphorically speaking.

okies.
thing is, im running on the idea of 'there aint no such thing as a free lunch'- which emans the power has to come from someplace. say Uriel is amde of pure soul stuff, and its very good at storing power. but who made him? the white god? and where does the wg get the power form?
at some point, you need a source
the source for the powe rof life on earth is the sun.
