Or we or brains or do we have souls OR NOT?

[CaptainWacky]

JUST TELL ME.

 

[Gagh]

I know I have a soul, but it's pretty battered. As for a brain, I leave that elsewhere when I come to this board.

 

[Loktar]

As do most people.

 

[CaptainWacky]

We have brains. What I'm asking is is the "soul", the sense of being, sentience, just an illusion created by the brain, a kind of feedback loop, or is it something more, something real?

 

[Mentalist]

Measure of Man.

 

[CaptainWacky]

THERE IT SITS. Waiting.

 

[Cassie]

WE'RE ALL ROBOTS

 

[Loktar]

BEEP BOP BOOP

 

[CaptainWacky]

If we are just chemicals and grey matter then how come we "feel" like we're more.

 

[headvoid]

You are beginning to sound like Chris Martin, do you have an album coming out?

 

[Cassie]

Because we have squishy souls

 

[CaptainWacky]

I JUST HAVE THOUGHTS. Do you never ponder the nature of your own existence and go a bit mad?

 

[Loktar]

yes.

 

[Cassie]

Yes.. I went mad a long time ago and never came back.

 

[headvoid]

Yes, I am being facecious, it's a speciality of mine when I start to think too much.

i worry more about the chemical and grey matter being used up before i have had time to think and do everything I want to. So i stop myself thinking about it and plough on.

I stopped thinking so much about the nature of my own existence when I got kids. Now I just worry continually about the nature of their existence

 

[Cassie]

I worry that I burned up too much of my grey matter and that I won't have enough to last the rest of my life.

 

[CaptainWacky]

You could steal some of Loktar's!

 

[Cassie]

then I could be nipple obsessed.. atleast I'd have some to obsess over

 

[CaptainWacky]

I wonder if you could keep your soul in a jar.

 

[Cassie]

as long as you've got some formaldehyde, you can keep it in a jar for as long as you like
