The Voice of Reason
Doctor of Thinkology
While I'm not certain that I agree (or disagree) with the "no soul" for plants and animals, I have to say that even though we do have a soul (if we do), that it does not preclude our own physical death as well. I understand the point you are making, I am merely trying to point out that (at the risk of overstating the obvious), regardless of our soul, our physical body WILL pass some day.NetDoc said:I believe that niether animals nor plants have a soul. They are destined to physically die one day, whether it is for food or for waste.
These topics are both covered, ad infinitum, in other threads, so I don't want to go off topic to discuss them here.NetDoc said:War is wrong. We are killing those who are already spiritually dead, but who have a chance for a new life.
Abortion is wrong. While they have not sinned and so have not died spiritually, there is SO much that they can bring into this world. I have no scriptures, but "Thou shall not kill" easily comes to mind.
