| Question: What do you mean by soul? Posted: 19 Nov 2016 06:11 AM PST In intellectual terms, the soul is the projection of the mind on to what the mind cannot rationally grasp into understanding. what it becomes overwhelmed with. There therefore is the mind, where it cannot be with knowledge and understanding alone, but as a spirit, and there eternally yearning for the fulfilment of its being. The concept of soul to a rational mind therefore is an unworldly notion as need not, and cannot, be defined in words but only subtly sensed in terms of the longing of the human spirit, the longing for the truth, for excellence, the longing to belong and be one with what in the world is good and beautiful, just and fair, great and and magnificent, all have the same roots. In spiritual terms, a soul is this world is a manifestation of the ultimate, in shape of the human body and in form of the human spirit longing for its fulfilment in truth, longing for its union with God. According to spiritual codes, the feelings engendered as human spiritual wants for eternal excellence are recondite or otherworldly but they are real, that they are more real than the reality of the human earthly existence. This is what the rational mind cannot understand - what could be more real than the need for food, rest and procreation? This is where the mind cannot understand why is there something within that cannot be fully understood. But this is how the mind see it reasonable to acknowledge the existence of something greater that itself, and regard its presence within its own being as a soul, to regard it properly, as for instance in forms of spiritual practices or a religious following. |

You have got to be kidding me. No beneficial changes because no tax payer in their right mind, not even the liberals would agree to this cockamamie idea. |
| Question: What are the chances of me living a full and normal life? Posted: 19 Nov 2016 03:19 AM PST I'm the same age as you, but I live in Serbia. I definitely understand your concern with what you've brought up. We really live in an unprecedented time and there's no telling what the future might hold. Judging by what we see and hear in the news, on the internet or elsewhere, it really does look like we're in danger in some way. Global warming, pollution, overpopulation, lack of education among people, dangerous foreign ideologies, SJW's, it's ironic that, apparently, the number 1 threat to the human race currently is the human race. That's the thing, these things still don't seem to be affecting our everyday life apart from the fact that we hear about them often. I think that, regardless of what's happening out there, we as individuals can still live a normal life and, even if there are changes, these changes will come gradually enough for us to have enough time to adapt to them or figure out how to work around them. The thing about life is that it persists regardless, and that goes especially for us humans. If say 50 years from now we have to wear gas masks outside or there is little to no wildlife left, or that some major coastal cities are under water, odds are, we will still be living normal lives and going about our daily schedule. |
