Physics Proves Souls Exist, and God or Gods Exist: The Verdict of the Initiation Scaffold

This paper states the conclusion yielded by the McKinley initiation scaffold: souls exist, and God or gods exist. The cited scaffold establishes that the onset of a new physical causal chain requires a source not contained in the closed physical description of that chain. At life-scale, that source is soul. At universe-scale, that source is God or gods. This paper does not re-derive the scaffold or defend the conclusion against objections. It states the verdict licensed by the cited results.
