Are you claiming that there is a soul? Becauae many posit that the brain and thus our experiences are made of matter and energy and as mechanistic as anything else.
- LoganDark 3y agoMany people have the experience of what could be called a soul, even if what they are experiencing is not some hidden spiritual plane of the universe. Perhaps "soul" could be better defined as something inherent to one's experience, rather than some outside entity that grants life to a vessel.
- omginternets 3y agoI believe I addressed the question of materialism vs dualism in my original comment?
- colordrops 3y agoDid you edit the comment? I don't recall seeing the footnote before. In any case it was a rhetorical question to understand your reasoning, as I personally don't take a stance on whether a soul exists or not.
- omginternets 3y agoI did a few days ago, yes. But yeah, fair point!
