no I think that's just the literal definition... LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 12/04/2011 11:19:18 PM
Is this where we threadjack into the nuances of a term cultures have not really come to agreement on the actual definition of?

Can we just avoid that? :P

It would really depend on the mechanism Isaac - 12/04/2011 06:28:24 AM 1082 Views
You assume we all know, and agree on, what "soul" means. Tim - 12/04/2011 08:42:47 AM 1117 Views
It is what hope, which is a thing with feathers, perches on. Vivien - 12/04/2011 07:32:07 PM 1176 Views
But seriously, what does it do? Aeryn - 12/04/2011 11:01:58 PM 1177 Views

What happened to two? *NM* Ghavrel - 12/04/2011 08:20:41 PM 634 Views
Thanks, I fixed it. *NM* Vivien - 12/04/2011 08:29:20 PM 646 Views
Your comments, or mine? Joel - 13/04/2011 01:24:53 AM 1599 Views
You get one guess. Vivien - 13/04/2011 07:09:01 PM 1322 Views
One dismissive answer deserves another. Joel - 24/04/2011 12:54:44 AM 1223 Views
I'm a Christian who is partial to reincarnation, so I do not think much would change. Ghavrel - 12/04/2011 06:21:36 PM 1167 Views
*is disappointed* *NM* Vivien - 12/04/2011 08:01:05 PM 571 Views
You'd be surprised how frequently I get that from both sides. Ghavrel - 12/04/2011 08:22:24 PM 1142 Views
I bet you do! Vivien - 12/04/2011 08:47:59 PM 1108 Views

I think we are similar in some respects philosophically. everynametaken - 13/04/2011 05:59:38 AM 1100 Views
That's pretty much how I feel. Being a universalist helps in that respect. *NM* Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 06:25:34 AM 641 Views
Who says.... Jeordam - 13/04/2011 07:11:24 PM 1061 Views
So then my question is.... Jeordam - 13/04/2011 07:08:42 PM 1054 Views
Because I believe that Jesus was an incarnation of the λόγος. Ghavrel - 14/04/2011 12:36:36 AM 1081 Views
*heh* Jeordam - 14/04/2011 04:12:32 PM 1196 Views
I think I answered it pretty clearly in my post title. *NM* Ghavrel - 14/04/2011 06:59:47 PM 653 Views
Actually, you didn't. Jeordam - 15/04/2011 12:12:42 AM 1161 Views
Re: Actually, you didn't. Ghavrel - 24/04/2011 09:04:04 AM 1134 Views
I think that, like a lot of other people responding, I would want and need more information. Tom - 12/04/2011 07:13:14 PM 1086 Views
Speaking of the agnostic/atheist thing Vivien - 12/04/2011 07:40:04 PM 1143 Views
99% that there is no God... LadyLorraine - 12/04/2011 08:08:42 PM 1190 Views
Technically, no, atheists simply lack belief in a God. Ghavrel - 12/04/2011 08:19:15 PM 1130 Views
Whoah there, Stephen - 12/04/2011 08:26:43 PM 1102 Views
Okay, I have to admit I wasn't expecting to get called out on that. Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 04:03:08 AM 1209 Views
no I think that's just the literal definition... LadyLorraine - 12/04/2011 11:19:18 PM 1045 Views
Isn't that what "technically" would imply? Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 04:04:42 AM 1244 Views
And that's why I don't quibble with %'s, I just say I'm an atheist *NM* Vivien - 12/04/2011 09:45:31 PM 687 Views
It certainly doesn't mean you can't make conclusions. Tom - 12/04/2011 08:09:41 PM 1206 Views

Sadly enough, one of my favorite explanations of religion came from someone discussing a video game. Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 04:12:23 AM 1158 Views
Re: I'm basically a Magi. I'm going to travel to Brazil and then take over the world. *NM* Gaps - 13/04/2011 04:18:25 AM 693 Views
Either you meant "Magus" or you are a schizophrenic wizard. Both are acceptably awesome. Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 05:37:34 AM 1138 Views

Have you had any vivid dreams that came true? Tom - 13/04/2011 01:16:59 AM 1040 Views
My mom used to have dreams like that, usually about relatives. Joel - 13/04/2011 02:25:45 AM 1237 Views
I can easily believe that. Tom - 13/04/2011 06:14:51 AM 1051 Views
Taking things at face value is usually unwise, but the face value can still be correct. Joel - 24/04/2011 12:11:51 AM 985 Views
Minivans can fit lots of useful stuffs, like furniture. *NM* Aeryn - 13/04/2011 03:47:04 PM 650 Views
So can gas-guzzling SUVs, and full trucks. *NM* Tom - 13/04/2011 05:13:20 PM 602 Views
for that matter, you can fit a surprising amount even in a baby truck! *NM* LadyLorraine - 13/04/2011 06:36:58 PM 583 Views

It would upset my belief in science random thoughts - 12/04/2011 09:39:39 PM 1236 Views
There's so much wrong with that statement. Vivien - 12/04/2011 09:55:45 PM 1215 Views
If science proved there really was an Easter Bunny would it affect your believe in science? *NM* random thoughts - 12/04/2011 10:30:09 PM 694 Views

and what if science proved that science was false? random thoughts - 12/04/2011 11:48:32 PM 1184 Views
I think that's kind of the point; it can't. Joel - 13/04/2011 01:33:44 AM 1055 Views

I did, yes. Joel - 13/04/2011 03:32:18 AM 1058 Views
Yes it would upset my belief in science, why is that so hard to accept random thoughts - 13/04/2011 01:56:59 PM 1168 Views
Well, if that's all it is, we know that a lot of that broad base is wrong. Joel - 24/04/2011 01:18:05 AM 1300 Views

Actually the reason you don't revive people denied oxygen half an hour is due to chemical processes. Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 04:08:37 AM 1139 Views
True, but even well preserved brains require more than a jump start to resume life. Joel - 23/04/2011 09:20:42 PM 1001 Views
