What about it doesn't make sense? That not all of them are?

E: Anyway the answer is their parents are woo-woo new aged imbeciles for whom my contempt knows no limits and they coached them, either on purpose for attention or just accidentally while trying to figure out who their special indigo child was reincarnated from.

How many 3 year olds with the soul of a bronze age farmer could you beat up?

That's where groove is. No, it has to be somewhere else.

Citing physics to prove the existence of a soul or reincarnation or mindreading is like citing gastronomy to prove that dragons are real.

Well if it's a recipe for roast loving dragon why not? Why would someone go to the trouble?

If the soul were real though there would be no reason it couldn't be proven to exist.

If dragons are reptiles then they'll be crawling with salmonella. There's a reason we typically don't eat reptiles.

Now I'm waiting for someone to post actual reptiles that are eaten.

Chicken is riddled with salmonella and we eat more of them than anything else but we eat 12 times more lizards than fish.

Ahhh the Mormon theory of souls

Is it correct though? Maybe the James Webb telescope will tell us

Maybe if those nerds at nasa were looking out there for hot babes instead of quasars and pulsars but until then you'll just have to take my word for it and you're not calling me a liar are you?

Believing in a spiritual soul is a fantasy? You really think a person dies forever and there is nothingness for all infinity (even though there is actually provably somethingness for all infinity)? Call me the quantum soul guy, but I'm guessing what you believe is a nihilistic oversimplification mostly influenced by conventional physics?

Too far imo. It was the conventional physics line that did it. I'd have gone with "science communicators" or "youtube physics videos" or something less on the nose. At least, that's what I believe.

Sceptics my rear end. Been here for 22 years while holding the insane rear end belief that there's a rogue, unconventional physics that the universe really operates by without being well known as the crackpot "secret physics goon"?

You're just putting words in my mouth, I only said it was unprovable, which it is, objectively. You have exactly as much evidence one way as I do the other

How do you know that a soul isn't detectable? You'd think someone that believes so strongly in the concept of a soul would be all "Of course they're real. They're inside everybody. Go get all that fancy science equipment and have a gander you're gonna see that I'm right." But no, right off the bat "UNPROVABLE! Objectively can never be proven!"

Did you know we've detected loving neutrinos but I guess our technology is still not sensitive enough to find all that soul stuff that's apparently everywhere.

God dammit I fell for it. :mad:

People that say nothing happens when you die don't need any kind of evidence to support that notion. They're not proposing anything. They're not putting any idea on the table.

Some souls are just so good they get an immediate upgrade.

Can someone who is part of a religion that believes in reincarnation remind me of the soul hierarchy again.

Does it go human>cow>bird>magical mythological animal>nirvana? Am I missing some animals? Is the order wrong?

In one of them, I think Hinduism, cow and bird are higher on the hierarchy. So a particularly good human could be reincarnated as a cow or a chicken. Now, I don't know if you've notice the sort of lives cows and chickens tend to live but for one would sin on purpose to avoid being reincarnated as one if I believed in that horseshit.
