Do you believe we are physical manifestations of spiritual energy?
I thought this is all there is,
but now I know you are so much more.
I want to upgrade from my simple eight bits,
but will you still love me when I'm sixty-four?

Simple answer:  What the fuck is a "soul"? And what the fuck is "spiritual energy"?
You cannot fathom the immensity of the fuck i do not give.

Spiritual energy is spiritual force times spiritual distance, of course.

No, I do not believe in the soul, as it is traditionally defined.

The mind and body seem to be intertwined to where the two cannot be separated; the body is in no way spiritual.  Hence, the body dies along with the mind.

As far as being a physical manifestation of spiritual energy, I am uncertain as to what that has to do with the presence of a soul.  Our body turns into a non-physical manifestation of spiritual energy after death or something?  Then... um... no.

Not to mention that destroying the body can destroy the mind. *cough*Alzheimer's*cough*

I try very hard not to believe anything, but sometimes its tough with gravity and barstools. Souls, spiritual energy... sounds like there would have to be a lot of definitions before I'd consider the idea likely.

No, when it comes down to it,  I'm kind of a materialist.

What difference would it make if we were or were not?

If you are asking if there's a life after death, well, again, what's the difference if there is or not?

I have the same questions re: this "free will" thing I keep hearing about.
This play, however, is an affirmation of life—not an attempt to bring order out of chaos nor to suggest improvements in creation, but simply a way of waking up to the very life we're living, which is so excellent once one gets one's mind and one's desires out of its way and lets it act of its own accord. - John Cage

I disagree with all you fucks.

I've seen a soul, so therefore it probably exists.
- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!

Chances are, there are very few ways you could define that in such a way that I would agree. So I'll say again, "nah."
