This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.
When it comes to philosophy, I'm quite vehemently opposed to the idea of the soul, or some transcendent 'mind'.

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
I'm not sure it does. It's all in the mind.

This is sort of puts you in the right area when I think of souls:

It'd be incompatible with my beliefs to say it doesn't, but I think the mainstream idea is highly romanticized and inconsistent with most sources of theology.

We always say to fight fire, you must use fire. This is wrong. Fighting fire with fire will leave scars and a new flame will rise. We must instead use water. It is the opposite of fire, it extinguishes the fire, it cools, it refreshes, it heals. We are made up of 70% water, we are not made up of 70% fire. Please practice what we truly are

Your consciousness, every thing that makes you an individual is essentially your soul and yours only.

No. Your brain, and the electrical signals and other shit that make up it are the things that dictate you. When your body and brain dies, that stuff dies with it.

To determine if the "soul" exists, you much first define what a soul is.

It's called Neurons! Billions of them!



The average number of neocortical neurons was 19 billion in female brains and 23 billion in male brains.

Men have more than women!? 0_o.. So.. how can women be naturally smarter than men?

Well they aren't, are they? I thought on average we were about the same.

It's not just the number of neurons it's the connections between them.

Fewer neurons could lead to closer neuronal connections and activities, and thus improve cognition.

"Ornate chandeliers suspended from a vaulted ceiling lit the spacious chamber; Jack tilted his gaze overhead and noticed how far away they were.  His thoughts wove around those bright lights, like a dance of ether masses spiraling in precious unison. Why must we try to clutch desperately for the mere threads of this world when we can clasp onto a tapestry of untold magnificence beyond this plane of existence?"
Soul=consciousness

So yes
