yes (in as much that we could choose to define it that way) LadyLorraine - 14/09/2009 03:31:40 PM 749 Views
On a gut level, I think all substance is teleologically tied to one or more kinds of consciousness. Burr - 14/09/2009 04:03:31 PM 678 Views
aaah but who says we can percieve all there is to percieve in relation to our persons? LadyLorraine - 14/09/2009 04:14:08 PM 682 Views
But merely positing a soul (as a spiritual substance) doesn't actually explain anything. Burr - 14/09/2009 07:46:35 PM 622 Views
i'm not saying that all inexplained qualities are due to "soul" LadyLorraine - 14/09/2009 07:50:27 PM 684 Views

I think there is definitely a spiritual force that underlies the unity of all things Matrimony Cauthon - 14/09/2009 06:11:01 PM 714 Views
That sounds very like gnosticism in many ways. Joel - 18/09/2009 12:17:51 PM 726 Views

I think there may be platonic forms defining purpose Sports_Gambler - 16/09/2009 06:27:36 AM 589 Views
