I have introduced the probes to the concept of souls and Heaven. I'm not sure what the rest of you think, but it is my belief that the probes need to have some reassurance that life is not in vain. They need a reason to carry on.

I used the Judeo-Christian/Islamic approach (good deeds rewarded in Heaven) since it is the most common, and I am familiar with it. I left out reincarnation as I am not too familiar with the concepts and feel that it would have proven confusing at a time when clarity is needed.

I hope this doesn't offend anyone.
