any religion requires that within the human body (for the animals we are thinking ...) there must be something else, a kind of spirit that he wanted to direct a God so that we might live. Catholicism certainly speaks of the soul, but does not know how to describe it is the mind?, Is the thought?, Is something different and separate from us or are we?, Is an energy?, Is concrete or abstract? Is visible or invisible? ... All, or nearly so, stems from the biblical story that, during the creation of Adam, God breathed into our own spirit and that he lived. Now, beyond that the tale of Adam and Eve does not hold for many issues, the image of the breath is unbelievable and disrespectful, it compares god a toymaker that in order to move their doll puts the batteries. A god could well create man already full of spirit or batteries, why add this action drama of breath? Whatever the reason, the story has survived for centuries in defiance. He could have done since centuries were largely useless in terms of the evolution of rationality that, apart from some sporadic cue, came very late to the world fully with the Enlightenment (eighteenth century). Until then it had gone ahead with accuracy, without a scientific culture, without a logic separated from the divine plan, a reasoning power restricted to a few men and prevented a large mass bound, affixed, or contingencies, economic and cultural ignorance and powerlessness. In the work, "Phaedo the soul is assumed for the first time in a recognizable manner by the Athenian Plato (we are four centuries before Christ). But it is still a soul without god, atheist, disconnected from the religious discourse. It will then Christianity to paganism to snatch even this concept and incorporate them in his doctrine as his own original. Operation not as secondary, if we think that thanks to the "certainty" of the soul Christians can baptize, they can frighten the hell, they can force us to live the life prescribed remote from the scriptures that they consider sacred. Yet, just ask a bit 'of things "heretical": if the soul is something different from me, that I have interest in his fate after my death? Where and what is the tank from which God draws souls to each new born? It however acknowledged that the new souls are "created" from scratch (remember that creation is physically impossible, and if God created the laws of physics, because it violates?), Where and how they are packed after the death of their bodies assigned ? And by what criterion is assigned to a core body rather than another? The soul of a crime is itself criminal or what? And the situation is the fault of the soul of the body, vice versa, or what? And where does the soul when we are in a deep coma?
Questions silly and slanderous? Not at all: even the believer has the right to clarify the mechanisms of their faith more practical if you do not want to proceed in the dark and nell'ottusità . It 's too easy to say that things are just so today we need to know not sure believe since we believed in things abstruse for millennia!
