>The human spirit has survived for 1000s of years. It will never be broken.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

We - humans dont even have a souls.

We are living pieces of meat , programmed by DNA and with our feelings and behaviours controlled by so called "neurotransmitters" .

Now do you agree with me ?

P.S
I am waiting on your answer , whether it is a response confirming or denying my opinion.

It is difficult to be clear, especially in the case of an anonymous person via the Internet, which can cause anhedonia. However, I am sure it is an abnormal level of one or more of the neurotransmitters. However, you can always try what I encourage you to do in order to adjust the correct functioning of the receptors responsible for the sensations of the neurotransmitters according to your feelings and needs.

>they cant really measure chemicals in the brain right?

Dont be so sure . For example doctors can measure level of prolactin, which is inversely proportional to dopamine levels. If you have a high level of prolactin in your body, you also have a low level of dopamine, if you have a low level of prolactin, you also have a high level of dopamine. I cannot comment on the possibility of measuring the amount of other neurotransmitters, but certainly if not now, there will be some methods to measure the amount of ALL neurotransmitters in the body in the future.

ABSOLUTELY NOT.

We are biological robots programmed by our own instincts which are programmed by our DNA, which in turn are controlled by neurotransmitters that, in the right combinations and in the right quantities, evoke specific reactions, emotions and feelings in us.

This is how science strips people of an atmosphere of mysticism, of belief in "free will" , religions, Gods and the so-called "soul".

In reality we have less free will than we think ourselves, since the state of our minds can be freely controlled using certain amounts of neurotransmitters in appropriate combinations.

>why not?

Because in reality we have less free will than we think ourselves, since the state of our minds can be freely controlled using certain amounts of neurotransmitters in appropriate combinations.
