Sorry :-) Helene Send a noteboard - 14/04/2011 10:15:30 AM
Do you think people would try to trace souls back to the past and put souls like Hitler's on trial? Or that it's more of a thing that will have repurcussions into the future? Like you'll be punished in the future for current lives misdeeds... or will there be laws that prevent that? Would people then commit suicide to prevent being prosecuted for a crime they committed in this lifetime? Would suicide rates soar if people are unhappy with their current lives? Are there rules to where you will be reincarnated, i.e. does karma exist, or do you just get to be lucky? So you kill yourself until you find a good life?

It would really depend on the mechanism Isaac - 12/04/2011 06:28:24 AM 1248 Views
You assume we all know, and agree on, what "soul" means. Tim - 12/04/2011 08:42:47 AM 1275 Views
It is what hope, which is a thing with feathers, perches on. Vivien - 12/04/2011 07:32:07 PM 1341 Views
But seriously, what does it do? Aeryn - 12/04/2011 11:01:58 PM 1335 Views
It makes poems pretty. Vivien - 13/04/2011 07:00:03 PM 1346 Views

it wouldn't change much for me, but I'm pretty flexible in my spiritual beliefs LadyLorraine - 12/04/2011 04:23:34 PM 1370 Views

What a fantasy. Vivien - 12/04/2011 07:57:38 PM 1317 Views
What happened to two? *NM* Ghavrel - 12/04/2011 08:20:41 PM 745 Views
Thanks, I fixed it. *NM* Vivien - 12/04/2011 08:29:20 PM 720 Views
Your comments, or mine? Joel - 13/04/2011 01:24:53 AM 1816 Views
You get one guess. Vivien - 13/04/2011 07:09:01 PM 1511 Views
One dismissive answer deserves another. Joel - 24/04/2011 12:54:44 AM 1380 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 1310 Views
*is disappointed* *NM* Vivien - 12/04/2011 08:01:05 PM 643 Views
You'd be surprised how frequently I get that from both sides. Ghavrel - 12/04/2011 08:22:24 PM 1297 Views
I bet you do! Vivien - 12/04/2011 08:47:59 PM 1294 Views

Go expand his worldview. *NM* Ghavrel - 14/04/2011 06:56:03 PM 670 Views
I think we are similar in some respects philosophically. everynametaken - 13/04/2011 05:59:38 AM 1270 Views
That's pretty much how I feel. Being a universalist helps in that respect. *NM* Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 06:25:34 AM 737 Views
Who says.... Jeordam - 13/04/2011 07:11:24 PM 1210 Views
So then my question is.... Jeordam - 13/04/2011 07:08:42 PM 1208 Views
Because I believe that Jesus was an incarnation of the λόγος. Ghavrel - 14/04/2011 12:36:36 AM 1277 Views
*heh* Jeordam - 14/04/2011 04:12:32 PM 1363 Views
I think I answered it pretty clearly in my post title. *NM* Ghavrel - 14/04/2011 06:59:47 PM 730 Views
Actually, you didn't. Jeordam - 15/04/2011 12:12:42 AM 1310 Views
Re: Actually, you didn't. Ghavrel - 24/04/2011 09:04:04 AM 1287 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 1260 Views
Speaking of the agnostic/atheist thing Vivien - 12/04/2011 07:40:04 PM 1315 Views
99% that there is no God... LadyLorraine - 12/04/2011 08:08:42 PM 1333 Views
Technically, no, atheists simply lack belief in a God. Ghavrel - 12/04/2011 08:19:15 PM 1298 Views
Whoah there, Stephen - 12/04/2011 08:26:43 PM 1276 Views
Okay, I have to admit I wasn't expecting to get called out on that. Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 04:03:08 AM 1369 Views
no I think that's just the literal definition... LadyLorraine - 12/04/2011 11:19:18 PM 1184 Views
Isn't that what "technically" would imply? Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 04:04:42 AM 1403 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 768 Views
It certainly doesn't mean you can't make conclusions. Tom - 12/04/2011 08:09:41 PM 1386 Views
Re: Campbell: Gaps - 12/04/2011 08:42:09 PM 1359 Views
Self-identification is an interesting point here. Tom - 12/04/2011 09:00:46 PM 1303 Views
Re: Agree Gaps - 12/04/2011 09:22:22 PM 1307 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 1313 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 768 Views
Either you meant "Magus" or you are a schizophrenic wizard. Both are acceptably awesome. Ghavrel - 13/04/2011 05:37:34 AM 1312 Views

Never mind. Aeryn - 12/04/2011 11:34:46 PM 1233 Views

Have you had any vivid dreams that came true? Tom - 13/04/2011 01:16:59 AM 1185 Views
My mom used to have dreams like that, usually about relatives. Joel - 13/04/2011 02:25:45 AM 1411 Views
I can easily believe that. Tom - 13/04/2011 06:14:51 AM 1217 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 1150 Views
Minivans can fit lots of useful stuffs, like furniture. *NM* Aeryn - 13/04/2011 03:47:04 PM 721 Views
So can gas-guzzling SUVs, and full trucks. *NM* Tom - 13/04/2011 05:13:20 PM 679 Views
for that matter, you can fit a surprising amount even in a baby truck! *NM* LadyLorraine - 13/04/2011 06:36:58 PM 655 Views
I'd find it quite comforting ßelals Girl - 12/04/2011 07:40:09 PM 1249 Views

Pythagoras was a total nut. Vivien - 12/04/2011 10:05:42 PM 1420 Views
True Stephen - 12/04/2011 10:13:43 PM 1245 Views
It would upset my belief in science random thoughts - 12/04/2011 09:39:39 PM 1393 Views
There's so much wrong with that statement. Vivien - 12/04/2011 09:55:45 PM 1403 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 770 Views

right. Aeryn - 12/04/2011 11:18:31 PM 1449 Views
and what if science proved that science was false? random thoughts - 12/04/2011 11:48:32 PM 1343 Views
I think that's kind of the point; it can't. Joel - 13/04/2011 01:33:44 AM 1201 Views
Did you read my original post? random thoughts - 13/04/2011 03:13:34 AM 1221 Views
I did, yes. Joel - 13/04/2011 03:32:18 AM 1207 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 1346 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 1459 Views
What's a soul? Aeryn - 12/04/2011 10:51:39 PM 1232 Views
I can only give you my personal take. Joel - 13/04/2011 01:47:39 AM 1369 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 1330 Views
True, but even well preserved brains require more than a jump start to resume life. Joel - 23/04/2011 09:20:42 PM 1154 Views
so did this guy took a railroad spike through the head random thoughts - 13/04/2011 01:58:52 PM 1392 Views

but we know personality can be draticaly altered by physical means random thoughts - 24/04/2011 03:28:36 AM 1594 Views
"We" don't know that; that's the problem. Joel - 24/04/2011 07:02:49 AM 1418 Views
Can one have an identity without memory? *NM* Aeryn - 13/04/2011 03:46:16 PM 693 Views
