Question

And where is it when your knocked unconscious? Think for a minute, what is it like to live without a brain? You people should know all about that since your christians

what a loser

Answer 1

First of all, it is ridiculous for you to assume that ALL Christians believe in the immortality of the soul.

Secondly, there is no need for childish name calling and insults. This is an open forum to discuss religion, not to go around slandering people who have done nothing to you.

Lastly, the teaching of the immortality of the soul, along with the trinity, hellfire and many other popular beliefs of Christendom have no basis in the Bible. As a Christian, I do not believe in the immortality of the soul.

If you truly want to know why, please visit www.watchtower.org. As I suspect that you are not truly interested in an answer but instead want to bash religion, I am not investing any more time or energy on your "question."

Thank you.

Answer 2

Well, you would first have to PROVE there is no soul. I studied philosophy for 2 years, and there are pretty good arguments that humans, and really all natural material things, have a soul. Here is one argument in a short form. The soul is really what differentiates matter. For instance, a tree and a rock are made of matter. What makes the tree a tree, or what makes a rock a rock. It is "treeness" or "rockness" that permeates matter and makes it what it is, giving it shape, color, size, and especially its nature. Let's not get into the idea that humans have a spiritual soul. So, in answer to your question of where the soul is when a human being sleeps or in any vegetative state: the sould is everywhere, permeating the body. Aristotle and St. Thomas Aquinas examine this issue at length, in case you are interested. I suggest you be open minded if you ever want to discover truth, wherever it may be.

Answer 3

This is a stupid question - you have made up your mind already when you state there isn't a soul. Besides you go on to ask further dumb questions - which need no answer because there to stupid. Science has measured the weight of a person's body before death and after death and they find a weight difference - something like 3 oz. This difference they think is due to the weight of the Soul. So you think there isn't one so why should I try to change your thinking?

Answer 4

you seem really intelligent , maybe you like to have a knowledge quiz with my pet rock bet you it would win...Why would a soul which is part of an individual leave the body in those circumstances , even when your passed out/ knocked out/ asleep your still aware of things and your counsious is still active and those comments you made aren't just atking a shot at christians every spritual system of belief believes in a soul in one form or another , if your going to use your questions to bash christains why not at least make valid point not just some dogmatic junk based on your opinion , it makes you no better or smarter then they are

Answer 5

you do the atheists proud I'm sure, but I appreciate you going on record and saying such things, I am sure you will be a very popular reference.

however that being said, the soul is not a part of living matter and is not separated from the living until after death, till then its with the body, where its always been, what a ridiculous question

Answer 6

People in commas have souls, you are confusing talking with soul. Our souls need a rest from the weariness of the world, thus sleeping. A soul is who you are not what you are doing. But
I guess that tells us why we do not follow you, intelligence is a gift from God. I assume you did not accept yours.

Answer 7

. What is “a living soul”? Genesis 2:7 Dust and breath, that is what we are dust and breath. Please turn to Genesis 3:19 Dust you are and to dust you return. look at a controversial text. The book of Ecclesiastes chapter twelve and verse seven, dust to the ground, spirit to God who gave it. So one might ask what is the spirit if not what we commonly call a ghost? First turn to James it’s a little book right after Hebrews. read in chapter two verse twenty-six. This chapter is mostly talking about faith without deeds being dead, but here in verse twenty-six it states, “The body without the ‘spirit’ is dead.” Not much, we didn’t already know, but what is this spirit? The book of Job sheds some light on the fact in chapter 27 verse three; Job is talking to his friends about God. He states that as long as he has life in him the breath of God in his nostrils he will not…deny his integrity. It goes back to dust and breath again. So what does happen to a person when they die? Ezekiel 18:20 states that the soul that sins, it shall die. In first Timothy chapter six verses 15 and 16 Paul is talking to Timothy and says (read) God is the only one who is immortal. Let’s see if we can find out where the dead are. What is it like for those that have died? Does the Bible give us any indication? Ps 115:17 “The dead praise not the Lord neither any that go down into silence.” And again in Ecc 9:5, 6 & 10 “For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in anything that is done under the sun.” “Whatsoever thy hand finds to do, do it with all thy might for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.” God says the dead know not anything. In the gospels, John chapter 11, when it talks about Lazarus death, in verse eleven Jesus calls death sleep. How many of you, when you get a good nights sleep realize anything that goes on around you between the time you fall asleep and when you wake up? That is what it is like to be dead. Look up at the light. shut those off for one moment. Okay where did the light go? Where did it go? It doesn’t go anywhere. It takes two things to create light, the bulb and electricity. Without both things, there is no light. You can turn them back on now. When a person ceases to breathe the breath goes out of the body and the body; it goes where we bury it to await the resurrection.
Are we really sure that our loved ones are not in heaven now? Let’s close with reading a couple more texts. The first text is found in Acts 2 (read); Peter is talking to the crowd about Jesus resurrection. The part of the dialogue I want us to concentrate on begins in verse twenty-two and ends in the first part of verse 34. David, the King David, is dead and buried and has not ascended to heaven. When will we expect to see our loved ones again? First Thessalonians chapter four verses 15 though 18 answers this question for us. One minute a person is alive and what will seem to them as the next minute God will call them from their graves. And finally, Revelation chapter twenty one verses one through five, we go to heaven together with our loved ones when Christ comes again and there will be no more death or crying. Won’t that be a glorious day? I can hardly wait. Won’t you wait with me today?

Answer 8

Your soul is within you. The outer body is our shell and the soul is within. Everything is made up of energy scientific fact.I do believe that energy is our soul. When your knocked unconscious your soul remains in your body. When you die that is another story your soul leaves your body(the empty shell)

Answer 9

I dare to say your question is a valid one, even if I do not feel ready to fully answer it myself, but I am afraid there seems to be more confusion than a simple twilight boundary between life and soul, to the point nobody could really tell how they should be distinguished one from the other.

Answer 10

Your soul is connected to your body, so when you're asleep or knocked out, your soul is still there. Even when you're mentally damaged, your soul is still there.
