For thousands of years man believed that the blood/humors, heart, or breath contained the soul, but this is what actually contained the soul the whole time lol.
The soul is immaterial and is not contained
>>18740867You religitards caved to evolution and you will cave to materialism one day. The nervous system IS the soul, specifically the brain, the immaterial nonsense is unscentific poppycock lol.
>>18740867Doesn't make any sense.
>>18740863it must be terrifying to actually believe this nonsense
>>18740863A soul is like your self. Five souls on a boat is five people. If you lose your soul that means you've lost yourself. I don't know how ghosts work but it's a different thing. It's an old way of talking.
>>18740882How many souls do conjoined twins have?How many souls do non-conjoined twins have?How many souls does a person with the severed corpus callosum have?
>>18740868Evolution is also a lie.>>18740872It’s literally obviously true
>>18740868>You religitards caved to evolution and you will cave to materialism one day. The nervous system IS the soul, specifically the brain, the immaterial nonsense is unscentific poppycock lol.
>>18740899It's not. The soul is proposed as an immaterial explanation for the differentiation of people. But what could possibly differentiate one soul from another besides material aspects like being spatially separated or being in different configurations? Soul theorists see the hard problem of consciousness and introduce a redundant material realm of souls.
>>18740904Souls are distinguished by their essence.
>>18740907More nonsensical question begging. What is essence? How is one essence distinguished from another?
>>18740909Argument from ignorance
>>18740909Also, the empty dismissal as “nonsensical” is argumentum ad lapidem
>>18740918>>18740919Asking clarifying questions is neither of these fallacies.
>>18740922You did not ask a clarifying question, you know very well what the concept of essence is, you asked the question as part of a logically empty rhetorical dismissal: “Atoms? Nonsense! What are atoms, who ever heard of such a thing?”
>>18740926My questions are part of my dismissal but it is not logically empty. I know that you cannot answer the questions. >you know very well what the concept of essence is Nope and if this was true then you should be able to answer.
>>18740937>I know you cannot answer the question “what is essence”You are not a bright sophist.
>>18740945No argument, no answers. I accept your concession.
>No argument, no answers. I accept your concession.
>>18740959You could just answer the very simple question of how one soul's essence is distinguished from another soul's essence instead of posting selfies. The reason you refuse is because you've realized that you would have to describe these things materially and thus soul theory is just redundant materialism. QED
>>18740863This doesn't solve the Hard Problem of Consciousness though, it only demonstrates that the brain itself extends to your entire body instead of just your head
>>18740863Imagine that being alive and smashing those nerves with a hammer
