What the word refers to is an experiential aggregate of synaptic orchestrations.

Ok so you are telling me that my body causes me to have perceptions. But you forget that my body itself is just a perception. It cannot be the ground or cause of anyones consciousness, it itself is just like flowers, bees, and my cock in your moms arse nothing but a free floating piece of experience.
So you in truth neither have body or soul, you are just reality fracturing into funny little forms. Accept it.

I know, I find it amazing people struggle to understand this. There is no soul. You are literally every single component of your body working together, the same way a running car is every single part of it.

Not with our current technology, I do not think so. But it is obvious this is so because, people who exercise also improve almost every facet of themselves not just muscles, but the mind aswell.
And having a cardiovascular disease, or even kidney damage can lead to mental issues

Yeah I thought about this when I made the Dorima posts essentially. I also believe the human body is actually made up of three parts instead of two: physical body (i.e. corpus, what you control in the world. Your nerves, your body parts etc. If someone managed to graft a third arm on you that you could control it would be part of your corpus), the earthly soul (psyche, what makes you human. It is directly connected to your body. It is your brain essentially, or what happens in your brain. This is what you could upload to a computer, if possible), and finally God, essentially his seed as part of our human entities, or being part of the Universe (Everything) entity. I also think your part of God is what returns to him after dead, as a Christian. Your corpus decays and gets fed to the universe (the stardust fedora atheists like so much), and what happens to your psyche (soul) is a mystery. Maybe it goes to some kind of void state. Maybe it becomes reborn. Maybe it enters some sort of post-mortem and/or pre-natal pseudo-lucidity that can be seen as an afterlife and either suffering (Hell) or bliss (Heaven) and God might have control over this.

>> No.17231567

My body is a part of the body that makes up every thing – or maybe it isnt. Every thing I perceive is not wholly independent of me, so whatever you are is also to some degree me – or not. That is how I feel, anyway. I figure that, when two people talk about vastly different ideas, both might feel just the same. So words are not that important – if you look at it from this los angle.

Look up the tripartite theory of man in Christian theology. It says something similar (minus the speculation on the afterlife; most tripartite theorists would maintain that the three are unified in the resurrection).
