How do you know the Soul exists ?

Anything that puts on airs of being scientific and tries to disprove (or prove) the existence of a soul needs to be thrown out the window.

thats proving the negative, which is impossible.

All I can say is that there is no experience that is currently unexplainable by psychology or if you want to be an ass neurobiology 😛. And there is no part of the brain that appears to connect to or receive information from anywhere outside of the body.

I think it may be up to you to do some fMRI scans and locate some soul.

I guess you are entitled to your opinion.... Though I think its interesting how definitive you want to draw the line between biology and psychology.

C'est la vie. If you want I'll make a case for psychology, but I'm faily sure you are set 🙂

😂 "set"

...and yes, it is interesting.

What do you believe animates your body?

define "animates" please

I'm not trying to be smart, its really not a word I would use when describing human life.

What gives life to your physical body (I do not mean the blood, because the Bible states that the life of the flesh is in the blood). Blood only sustains, supports, and maintains the body. But what causes your body to live?

There are some new studies in quantum physics that see the brain as a receiver of the mind and the body a shell of a person.

links?

sources?

Look at JIA and then we might want to rethink that.

I'll have to look it up. It's mostly books.

"life" is really hard to pin down....

for instance, are we as individuals alive or is our life a byproduct of trillions of other living things?

I'm more inclined to believe the second, and put all mental function in the realm of electro-chemical action and amazing pattern recognition + memory function.

You seem to be confusing quantum mechanics with pseudoscience again.

Interesting. But why does electicity and chemicals react symbiotically? Why do we recall?

not really. 🙂

electro-chemical means that it is an electrical signal carries by chemical carriers. Basically charged ions moving down an axon.

Where do our thoughts come from? And where do they go once they leave our brains? 🙄
