    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    So, if anyone considers you right long enough, you will be right? Is that right?

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    wow.. hard to understand, sorry. SO..... IF "IT" were not so.. you mean if everything wasn't a void.... Nothing would change. So, are you saying that everything is, or everything isn't a void? .. I'm confused. Then you say... if nothing changes... then "being" doesn't change... well nothing...

    Aren't you a believer in atman? How do you make a distinction between atman and soul?

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    Part two….. How do we DISCUSS anything without someone asking questions? Just agree with absolutely everything, even if it's wrong? That's not discussion.. that's not even thinking. We might as well be talking to rocks... Preachers want to preach and NOT be challenged. That's why so many...

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    I think it's way more important that you decide. If you aren't trying to ram your beliefs down the throat of anyone else, your probably like most people and ok. But it's never ok to condone harm to anyone. Too many really nice people condone evil practices just because they are religious. The...

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    Like everything else? Then everything is void. Your ideas about void are also void. How is the sense of "being" different?

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    I can't read minds. If someone doesn't actually write something that makes sense, I can't be expected or bothered to pretend to know WHY or WHAT or HOW or anything. You also cannot read my mind. You cannot "read" my mood unless I TELL you my mood.

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    The problem is that the OP asks how can we tell soul from spirit. If you can't tell what one is.. then you can't answer the question at all. Like I can't. I don't know what the soul is.. or the spirit.. both quite meaningless terms for me.

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    And in many cases, people don't take their religious beliefs very seriously, so it's of no real consequence.. but the problem is when people really DO take their religious ideas seriously. We can have HUGE problems then. I do expect people to judge me. I can't control how they choose to judge...

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    8 I am NOTICING that people are more interested in attacking me for asking tough questions in a forum about discussing tough questions about religion THAN actually discussing tough questions about religions. Notice that all of is is about me having to defend myself for asking tough...

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    Try starting at the same place where you got your "spirit" definition..

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    Why shouldn't we mock religious beliefs? Those days are over. We don't mock the PEOPLE.. we mock the ridiculous beleifs. Oh I know what you said. You said the "spirit" is not supernatural.. it's an "energy" or a "breath"... I asked what kind of energy it is and why not just use the word...

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    It's such a common debate tactic from the apologist to answer a difficult question by way of taking offense and running away as far as possible from the question. I am not surprised by common tactics, but notice avoidance when it happens. People are happy to pontificate all day long, but are...

    How can one know they have a soul or spirit?

    It would be non snarky to ASSUME that I am actually SINCERELY interested in your answers to EACH and every question I ask, instead of assuming the worst. How did you arrive at these wisdomies?
