> In 1869, while doing experiments searching for the location of the soul, German physiologist Friedrich Goltz demonstrated that a frog that has had its brain removed will remain in slowly heated water, but an intact frog attempted to escape the water when it reached 25 °C.

Now we need a religious version of the "In Mice" meme [1] that just ends "IN FROGS."

John 3:6: That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit... IN FROGS.
