soul = you - the meat
You are correct, without a form to express it, a soul (you) is almost impossible to detect.I agree, but I'm also 99,99...9% sure that the outcome to that equation is 0.
if you meant with meat everything there is to our bodies (I don't really consider eyeballs and fingernails meat ).
I consider eyeballs more of a side dish and fingernails as an in between snack.
bunny1ohio said:What exactly is a soul supposed to be anyway? A spirit that makes you exactly who you are and whose personality moves with them to a higher plane when their body dies? Is it life giving energy with consciousness?... what would that mean for our definition?...
Animals would have souls... as would an insect... but we don't think every living thing has a soul do we? No... why not? What exactly is a soul...
anybody ... everybody... I want everyone's opinion on this one

i am happy to state my beliefs on the soul, and i am happy to try and answer questions about that belief, but the op had nothing about peoples beliefs being subject to scientific investigation - for this reason, i will respectfully withdraw from this debate, as i have neither the time or the energy to take part in such a debate. :sorry1:
