Oh good grief!. Really Elayne S!.!."an accident when the condom broke"!? Well if I was I was a happy accident!.

Any way NMG man as we know it is the only creature that can speculate if we have a soul or not No other animal, plant, or other living creature can ask speculative questions as man does!. (Except for the owl in the darkness who asks "WHO"!.!.just a little humor there, that's all)

Yes I do agree with you that man has a soul that is immortal and whose creation is from the one who created the universe and the earth and all other living creatures!. God does not make accidents!. Only careless fools in love!.

!.
We are souls having a human experience!.
This body allows the soul to fully experience being human on this planet!.

There are no accidents!. You are experiencing as you are meant to for purpose known by your higher self!. Understand and connect to what the "higher self" is about and you'll have fuller answer to your question!.

Look up on internet or post question " What is higher self" and answers will be found there!.

Your character is the complete sum of all your thoughts!. My body is simply a medium for which I experience objective reality and I see past the illusion!. And by accident I assume you mean like your parents didn't mean to have you when they did, in which case I doubt that caused them to love you any less!.!.!.or am I wrong!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

My "mirror" is when I visit Christ at the Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament in Adoration in Church!.

My soul is "touched" when I receive the Body of Christ at Holy Communion!.

This is how I know I have a soul, and trying to live the best I can!.

Accidents do not happen!. God created your lovely soul as well!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

if you think about it your body is just the shell YOU live in, eg: you can shut your body's eyes but YOU can still see stuff!.

if you concentrate you can actually feel how your mind is separated from your body and that you're actually 2 separate things but your mind controls your body!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's more of a conscience!. I don't think there is a physical soul inside our body, no transparent version of ourselves floating around inside there!. We think, therefore we are; ya know!? It's all the empty room that is our brain!. Our conscience!. Our driving force!. Everything is either an accident or fate!. The beauty is you get to decide which one, because it can't be proven!

You're only an accident if the condom broke, my friend!.

Otherwise, I don't believe so much in souls as in the mind!. I believe that we are made from our experiences, not by something given to us at birth!. Sure, we have some traits that come from our parents, but most of what we are is learned!.

So, no, I don't believe in a soul!. I also think it's an outmoded term!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

oh yeah souls we are!
the body is just a temporary vessel!.

heard some wise words from a pastor yesterday the body is hard to tame, everyday you feed it, comb it, look at it, wash it, dress it, touch it and look at it- but some times it can still mislead and control you while you are watching it!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I truely agree that souls exist in each human being!.!.!.!.We r just the vehicles of the engine(soul), which drives us!.!.!.!.God imparts each soul a body and the personality depends on the things which we have done in last births!.!.!.!.i believe in the theory of re birth as according to our mythology, body dies but the soul never dies!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

its doubtful that anyone is an accident!. what would it be but a soul!? did u ever look in the mirror and repeat over & over "I am alive,and I exist!."!? there is this panic-y feeling than u feel like u could sort your entire life out staring at the sink bowl 4 a bit!. as long as u dont have to look in that mirror again 4 a while!.!.!.!.weird,right!? =] yes we have souls,ok!Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you choose to believe you have a "soul", then you have one!. A "soul" is not required to have a "purpose" in in life, or anything else!.!.!.unless you choose to believe it (of/for yourself)Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am more concerned about how I will pay for school, how I will get a job, etc!. So i dont think about souls!.
On the otherhand, my brotha's got soul!. That's why he's my soul brotha!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
