When Did Our Spirit Enter The Enbryo Or Fetus Thus Creating A Living SouL

[McBell]

Norman: Hi Mestemia, a living soul is when our spirit enters our physical bodies. Of course this is from the scriptures. I am not saying
that my answer is the correct one, that is why I asked what others think of this?

That is nice and all, but...
You failed to define either word...

 

[McBell]

Norman: Hi Tom, if I am understanding you correctly, why do you connect God with abortion?

Please see post #43

 

[Norman]

If what you are saying is true, then your God is the universe's leading abortionist; since less than 70% of all fertilized eggs will even implant into the mother's womb causing pregnancy to continue. From there, there is a 25-50% chance of your God aborting the developing embryo before pregnancy is even detected. Even if the embryo makes it to a month, the odds of wastage are still at 25%. The bottom line is that around 70% of all zygotes fail to be carried to term. So with about 4 million live births in the USA last year your God conducted more than 13 million abortions, in the USA alone.

Norman: Hi Sapiens, you did not list your source for your information, by any chance is this website where you received your information from?
Spontaneous abortion in humans - RationalWiki

Norman: How else do you want me to define the word? Do you want me to post scriptures about a living soul? I was trying to keep this very neutral with everyone.

Define the word "soul"
In other words, what is a soul?

Define the word "spirit"
In other words, what is a spirit?

Presenting verses that use the words are useless unless you can define the words.

What exactly is the spirit or soul?

Norman: oh, sorry.

Norman: Wow, I am trying to keep up with everyone, getting exhausting. Hi roger1440, a living soul is where our spirit enters our physical body. I posted the chart of the birth cycle and I was asking everyone where they feel life enters the embryo or fetus? If you need more information please let me know. Thanks for your response.

Can you put it in your owns words rather then copying and pasting it?

I don't understand where the idea that a soul gets inserted at some arbitrary point in development comes from.
I do believe that there is more to living things than we can understand at this time. But the idea that it "materializes" suddenly seems bizarre.

[roger1440]

If we do have a soul and/or spirit something must cause it to enter and leave the body. If science can mimic that process it would seem to reason we could capture or contain one. Just a thought.

Norman: Hi roger1440, that would be cool if we could do that. Good response

Norman: Hi roger, I think I did that earlier, but I believe that we have a spirit created by God and when our spirit enters our physical body it becomes a living soul.
The psychical body is dead without our spirit. I posted scriptures in my OP.

 

[roger1440]

If the soul or spirit is eternal, not only it wouldn’t have an end, but also no beginning. Eternity goes both directions. Which brings me to another question. Where were we before we were born?

Norman: I am confused now, you said above that you do not believe in a spirit (paraphrasing) and here you state the spirit actually starts...(paraphrasing) which is it? And thank you for your response.

Notice the italics. "..."

It's pointing out the source of what people recognize as a spirit comes from nowhere else but within one's own thoughts.
