Do you believe in souls? If so why?

[Anonymous]

If you do believe in souls what is our nervous system for and why do we need it?

Follow up question:
Do you believe in soul mates?

Yes, I believe in souls

Yes, but I'm not 100% certain they're real

No, but I wouldn't be too surprised if they were real

No, souls do not exist

" In physics, interaction between the simplest particles in the universe is the fundamental way of looking at things. The atoms in our bodies obey to these fundamental interactions, but the Information Cloud (what we usually call the spirit or soul) is not limited by them. It is this information cloud that is the real us; the bodies are only the vehicles which we need to be able to function in the physical universe (4-space/time). The body is just hosting the Information Cloud. However, contrary to some New Age ideas, the body is absolutely necessary for us to be able to have the appropriate experiences, and not something we should try to abandon in the process. It's here, in the physical, that the "Game" is mainly being played out. Even when we get more evolved, we will need our bodies to travel in space and time. "

This is interesting. I've never met someone who's purposed this particular dualistic mindset. However I am curious to why this information cloud must come from an external source. What exactly are the restraints stopping this information cloud from arising and dissipating with the physical body?

[cjmtherfcker]

Its called the "Working Model" That link is a good resource to walk you through the explanations step by step. Its a lot to try and understand. I am brand new to this. I had generally subscribed to an agnostic science based belief system.

"What exactly are the restraints stopping this information cloud from arising and dissipating with the physical body? "
My guess would be that the body is limited to 4d Space time. While the information Cloud is not.

I'm a little nervous about diving too deep because just by glancing over the article it reminds me quite a lot of Chris Langan's CTMU, and a little of the more spiritual side of Buddhism. I spent a couple months thinking on each and although I learned a lot from Bhuddism the CTMU just felt like a more scientific sounding version of Alister Crowley's work. And by that I mean it presented the promise that only the most intelligent could begin to understand it while in reality it was simply cryptic nonsense made by a some guy who believed his own wisdom more than collective contribution. So I guess what I'm worried about is if this is a truth that many seem to have uncovered together or an idea presented by one that was just complex enough to convince enough people to follow it blindly. I'd rather not get too involved in the later again.

I am especially fearful of people that define they're own words and then speak almost exclusively with them. Like why is our preexisting language immediately deemed too simplistic to explain this concept. i can accept a couple of new words but too many starts to seems dubious.

The "working model" was pioneered by https://www.lpg-c.org/ The life physics group.
I think you will like WES PENRE though. He essentially goes through all of this and tries to explain in laymans terms. at least as close as can be. One of the things he repeats over and over though is taking in information and excepting what feels right and makes since to you.
So maybe you will like it maybe not. Either way if it changes your way of viewing the world in even the tiniest of ways than it has expanded your consciousness which is DEf positive

Yep, they exist cuz when person dies all of its organs including brain can be transplanted so why they aren't working,

in 1980's scientist tried to create transgenic being but they create a prototype that have its heart working, brain controlling it, lungs working but still they can't make him to move, think and just even move cuz,
one thing is missing and it's soul.

[Jxpxtxr]

I'm kinda sceptical tbh, I don't believe in any deity but there's been some weird stuff happening around me that made me question whether there's something like ghosts and ghosts are lastly just souls without a body. Apparently there's even scientific proof for the existence of souls already but that might just be Internet BS..

Yes I believe in souls. There has been some studies that proved it and many witnesses with stories that you cannot explain.

[Asker]

Do you happen to have a link to these studies?

[Gnana]

Not really. I have seen several articles on the Internet. It was a while ago... very unfortunate but I'm sure if you Google it, you would find lots of them

[Asker]

I asked because I have not. I have found plenty of articles talking about it but no studies proving it.

[Gnana]

Indeed, there is no study that proved souls exist. But I read a Dutch article about a study that proves that there is life after death.

[Asker]

I found the universities article that that Dutch article was referring too
www.southampton.ac.uk/.../...xperiences-study.page
Just put it through a translator. The research they were discussing was from The University of Southhampton in the UK. And if you follow that link you'll see they've studied out-of-body experiences and near-death experiences. Not the afterlife so I think this may just be a translation error.

[Gnana]

Hmm okay. Thanks anyway :)

[Asker]

No thank you!

[Gnana]

You're welcome :)

Souls do not exist. The human consciousness is a result of your DNA.

Soulmates are just people with similar behavior and similar values.

[Mirinda]

Yes I do!

No I don't
