Could it be that people are too stuck in fear and mind, always thinking, fighting with each other because of their egos that act as their G-d's trying to overpower the language and the cries of our soul that just wants to be happy? |

| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 34792981 02/20/2013 12:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | interesting question Quoting: Anonymous Coward 25021844 I have heard it said that people have souls and animals do not. then I make the comment that human DNA is 97% Monkey DNA so if monkeys have no soul, then 97% of us have no soul this debate will go on for eternity Interesting. The Janis (religious sect in India) believe that even the smallest organisms have a soul and they us a small brush to sweep any insects before them so they don't step or sit on them and don't kill any of them. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 30460893 02/20/2013 02:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Although I was born and raised a Christian, early into adulthood I questioned the whole God/soul/creation thing. I eventually came to the conclusion that science is all we really have to put our "faith" in and rejected the idea of a God and afterlife. Then I had a heart attack and flat lined. I experienced a reality and existence I'd never sensed before and was in a remarkably wonderful place/dimension. Of course this can't be proven to anyone, nor do I try to convince others of my experience. Science (REAL science) is wonderful. However, too many "scientific" types have spoken much dogma and with the unscientific who try to come off as scientific by trying to negate any type of ethereal existence. A true scientist would say something like, "we don't know...there are studies that support both sides of the issues, but studies can often be in error or even biased when studying such a subject. We don't know, and can't possibly know at this time". As for myself, it's not a belief, but a knowledge that our consciousness goes on. But this was an event unto myself and I have no right (or means) to try to prove it to anyone. |

The problem I have with religion is this currency of the immortal soul. Quoting: SlimExponent Would you conduct your life differently if you knew you are not eternal? The best thing is to leave religion out of it and study it. I'm pretty sure in time physics will get at the truth. After all, there's much we don't know. Like, what occupies the massive spaces between the nucleus and proton of an atom? We haven't a clue yet and probably a long way off from finding out. |

Excerpted from page 43and 47 of"Conversations with God · an uncommon dialogue" · book 1 Neale Donald Walsch 1992 -1994 [link to www.humanitysteam.ru] "Your soul (subconscious, id, spirit, past, etc.) is the sum total of every feeling you’ve ever had (created). Your awareness of some of these is called your memory. When you have a memory, you are said to re-member. That is, to put back together. To reassemble the parts. When you reassemble all of the parts of you, you will have re-membered Who You Really Are."-God What the soul is after is—the highest feeling of love you can imagine. This is the soul’s desire. This is its purpose. The soul is after the feeling. Not the knowledge, but the feeling. It already has the knowledge, but knowledge is conceptual. Feeling is experiential. The soul wants to feel itself, and thus to know itself in its own experience. The highest feeling is the experience of unity with All That Is. This is the great return to Truth for which the soul yearns. This is the feeling of perfect love. Perfect love is to feeling what perfect white is to color. Many think that white is the absence of color. It is not. It is the inclusion of all color. White is every other color that exists, combined. So, too, is love not the absence of an emotion (hatred, anger, lust, jealousy, covetousness), but the summation of all feeling. It is the sum total. The aggregate amount. The everything. Thus, for the soul to experience perfect love, it must experience every human feeling. How can I have compassion on that which I don’t understand? How can l~ forgive in another that which I have never experienced in Myself? So we see both the simplicity and the awesome magnitude of the soul’s journey. We understand at last what it is up to: The purpose of the human soul is to experience all of it—so that it can be all of it."-God 'Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.' - Dr. Seuss 'love has no opposite as it is the divine solvent that ends duality.' - m'Lord 'Be the love that you are' -m'Lord [link to www.youtube.com] |

I have experienced this and believe that when you are light, no burden of the body, then you are blissfully happy even whilst performing action through the physical body. |
