Soles might have souls. Maybe...

In my view, the soul would be everything which is not what we would refer to as "I". The self is just window dressing applied to the foundation of the soul.
What does that mean? No offense, but unless you're just going for some kind of zen koan puzzler, that sounds like "black is white". What meaningful definition of "soul" would not at least encompass the concept of self?
There's no such thing as a soul. No proof. Debate's over.

That is a statement of pure belief. You presented no proof to support it. Apparently the debate continues.
I do. Anything alive, I believe has a soul in some form or another. Life force, energy core, soul...whatever you want to call it.
Your thoughts? Do you believe animals have souls...or are souls only bestowed on humans?

Life is precious.
I cant even pull weeds without feeling a little guilty.
Not every living thing has a soul. Some are soulless. We call them democrats.
If as some believe animals have souls, would that make the treatment of animals in a circus somehow cruel and degrading? I've also heard the same assertion made about dolphins who are made to participate in activities meant to entertain humans at the National Aquarium.

The concept of a soul has yet to be properly demonstrated beyond a reasonable doubt. I see no actual proof of a soul. Do you?
