Theists - when the Powerhouse of the body stops, we call that DEAD.?

Question

Are you suggesting something goes on in the dead body independent of Life? Please Explain.

Answer 1

Not at all, we believe that the soul and spirit live on separate of the body, we also believe that one day we will receive glorified bodies that will not be subject to death and decay.

OOPS!  I apologize, not all theists believe exactly the same thing, this is what I as a Christian believe.   Most theists do believe in a soul or spirit that lives on in some way, but not all believe exactly the same about *how* it lives on.

Answer 2

Yes, I claim we have a soul and that soul crosses over to go Home.

I also believe that our souls live many lives because we seek enlightenment.

Answer 3

No, they suggest that something floats up out of the dead body and continues to exist without a power source.

Answer 4

We prefer to call it "went home to be with the Lord."

Answer 5

The dead know nothing, according to our Savior, Jesus.  When we die our souls return to the Creator; our bodies await the day of Judgment when we shall all be raised up (even the cremated/cut-up dead people, made whole again) and reunited with our souls if we are judged worthy.

Answer 6

Anatomically, the soul is stored in the Mojo Bag, which is located right in between the Powerhouse and the Corn Re-assembler.

When the Powerhouse stops, the wispy incorporeal soul in the Mojo Bag quickly snags as much Memory Juice and Poo Gas as it can, and high-tails out of the Keister (or Tuchus if you're male).

It's unknown why it gathers the Poo Gas, but it has been theorized that there are perhaps predators that feed on souls, and the Poo Gas acts as a repellent.

Anyhow, these clouds of Poo Gas and Memory Juice can indeed linger considerably longer than the body, even if the Powerhouse stops completely.  Some people have Poo Gas of such potency that they are sometimes still detectable hours, even days later.

Any other person who breathes in the soul stores a little bit of that person's soul in their own Mojo Bag, thus ensuring the giver of a touch of immortality.

At least I'm pretty sure that's what they said in anatomy class.  I may be a little hazy on the details.

Answer 7

You betcha brother!!!  Ya see, when the electrical stimulus across the brain ceases, so does the eletrophysiologic activity in the heart, therefore, you be dead....that means dead.  Dead is dead.  Pushin' up daisies, doin' the deep six, gone, passed on, buried, left the host.....in a permenant fashion!!!

So......am I suggesting there is something astro-physical, para-normal, existensial, going on here????   You betcha, and a lot more than bacterialization of corpus delictable too.  Oh.....you mean....oh I get it!!!  Okay.....I'm being catty here....sorry.....sort of my nature these days.  Mostly because people here in YA don't seem to be able to THINK, they continue to have thoughts instead.  There is truly a big differance between the two.  I apologize profusely!!!

It is true that BASICALLY sodium ionization occurs on a cellular basis and thusly produces an electro-stimulus, which in turn creates a (Hopefully speaking here) cellular myosis, division of the cell.  Problem; where did the first sodium ion get it's motivation to moisture and the resulting electro-stimulus reaction for myosis??  God.

God did it, it's His fault from the beginning, cause He stuck that thing in us.  What thing??  That....that....Ghost thingy!!!  Oh...you mean your Spirit??  Yeah....I guess so.  That's scary....Aaaaboootttt!!!!!!!!

Oh stop it....your being silly here!!!

POWERHOUSE of the BODY........it ain't no big thing, alright??  Beides that, the body is chuck full of infrmities, maladies, messed up, broke......but actually......God still Loves each one of us and that's a truth.

You were put here in a body.....for only one reason., speaking as a "Mono-theist"  To accept Jesus Christ as your Lord.

How does HE do this???  Experiences in Life, moving you in certain directions, using a little Faith, adding some education, teaching you to THINK, a dash of the good Life (a miracle or two, think about a plant) and bingo.....a flash of lightening....you find HIM.  Then you see that all your education, literacy and intellect, widom and thought....are like foolishness to HIM.  Then you will see that it has been HIM all along.  

Humility has a way of showing each and every person, their true worth.  IF someone doesn't truly Love you, your lost, you have no one, your alone, desolute, without purpose.  God changes that.

Answer 8

This should be a *drink* question for the christians
