Burden of proof is on you, theist, not me or any other atheist...

So, with that in mind….

Reuniting our Concept of Soul and Science

The problem with the soul, in modernity, lies in our misunderstanding of its old-school definition. This point is illustrated clearly in the mystical monotheist writings of Judaism. In the Zohar’s ‘The Gate of Reincarnation’ it is explained that there are five levels of the soul (based on the five Hebrew words for it). The first, Ruach, translating as ‘wind’ or ‘breath’ occurs when the air breathed in (specifically oxygen) mixes in the heart (via the lungs) allowing the pumping action of the heart and blood. This is quite literally a description of the conducting of the spirit of life, through the physical motor which ‘powers’, so to speak, the body. And conducting is indeed a much more accurate way to understand the concept of the soul than embodying. This mixing of the air, its use as a source of empowerment (vitality), to pump the blood via the heart, comprises the first level of the soul, the ruach. In such a way, the biological body is conductive of the soul. Once mixed with the blood it is sometimes called the “animal” soul. The final level of the soul is that in which the soul is in union with all of all, in the sense that it is G-d itself. (whereas G-d is the world, all of creation, and all of beyond). In such a belief G-d is in no way separate from nature (as science would seem to imply), but intimate and vital to it—in fact constructive of it. It is repeated again and again that G-d is not nature because G-d is not only nature. When we talk of this first level of the soul, we can think of the body as conductive of it, or passing through the body. One may say that clouds produce lightning, that lightning is not the same as clouds, and also that lightning can not occur without the static-electric action of clouds. Here the lightning is the soul, and the clouds the scientists ‘material’, or the monotheists ‘creation of G-d’. This is what is meant when the body is referred to as a ‘vessel’ or garment. These metaphors have been interpreted rather to mean that the biome is embodied by a materially existing, physical spirit of unknown quality, which carries with it not only power to live but also the personality of the individual and so on. Just as lightning is not a cloud, the experience of consciousness is not physical. For the body to produce rather than conduct the soul, the soul would cease to exist when the body does not exist. However we see that the world continues to exist with much ‘soul’ while our body does not. This is to say that the essence of consciousness, the essence of energy, the essence of being, is not created by material but co-existent with it. Whereas a Buddhist view sees material, neurons, sensation, and consciousness, (typically translated) to be ‘conditions’, conditions which, in interplay, cause the arising of the magical display of life. Such a view is not incompatible with material science, and is not incompatible with the ‘conditions’ as conductive of the soul. The soul passing through the body. Belief in G-d and the soul is, in a sense, a sanctifying and attribution of holiness to what we may otherwise fail to consecrate. 

Trees use sunlight to knock apart carbon-dioxide, let out the oxygen, and place the carbon in a pile that will become their trunk. Fire (combustion), takes bonded carbon in the trunk of a tree, and using energy (sparks) re-combines oxygen with carbon, causing a chain reaction; flames. The human bodies use of oxygen, its breath, combined with fruit, allows it to conduct the beautiful world we exist in via our brain and consciousness, not only that, but all experiences and events of our life, and all history of humanity, the moving of stone, the building of cities, is allowed for by this pumping of the heart and fruit. We arrive again, when searching for its origin, at the mysterious (and holy) spirit, which we doubted an accurate view, as it were.

Where the scientist will disagree, is not in whether this power, this universal cause, this spirit of being, does exist—but in whether or not it is holy or banal. To claim it banal, just to start, is to desecrate the importance of one’s first love, one’s most exciting and beautiful life-events, not in memory, but in their actual happening (heaven forbid), as well as one’s wish to survive, one’s own innermost being, and so forth, onward into the ‘natural’ world, and throughout the Universe. Any human who denies to you the importance of falling in love is either not being honest with you or not being honest with themself. Pun intended. “Well…”, you may say, “In the sense that it coincides with neurons firing, electro-chemical signals, motion, and so on — all things which have no inherent importance, it is unimportant”. The importance of our experience, which co-exists with these conductors, is self-verifying and self-validating, as is G-d. In my understanding of the Prophets and Sages, of the monotheists truest explanation of G-d, one can not say such a thing does or does not exist. One may say the power of the sun exists, and another may argue “yes but the power of the sun is really only nuclear reactions, gravity smashing together atoms in its’ core — therefor the sun’s power doesn’t really exist, only nuclear reactions which don’t give off any important (holy)  light”. 

being woken up by an explosion in your lab is never fun, especially when you have to guess what to clean up because you don’t have the time to throw your hair back into any sort of semi nice thing

i would like to sleep but that’s not on the menu is it, no I had to put out fires and make sure more explosive chemicals didn’t get close to my other explosive chemicals to the fire.

About homeopathy

The idea behind homeopathy is that actual active drug molecules leave an “imprint” in the water after being there. So at the beginning there we have an active drug solution which is diluted, and diluted, and diluted, and diluted, until there is almost nothing of the active drug left. At the end the concentration could be seen as 1 active drug molecule in a swimming pool of water. And then this is sold as a homeopathic product. It was actually proved that its only effect is placebo. See the summarizing article for yourself bellow.

Fears, Larhammar, Meulen, and van der Meer; Assesing and Regulating Homeopathic Products, Journal of Internal Medicine Commentary, 2017.pdf

excerpt: “The Australian government’s National Health and Medical Research Council comprehensively reviewed the published evidence for 68 health conditions and concluded that there are no known diseases for which there is reliable evidence that homeopathy is effective [2]. An earlier UK parliamentary inquiry [3] concluded that all the evidence from systematic reviews and meta-analyses [4, 5] conclusively demonstrated that homeopathic products performed no better than placebo.”
