The q was obviously about getting
infested with part of someone else's soul.

Soul life is what mobilizes us …it’s our breath life. I know many times soul is described as who we are ….that is not really true. Who we are (our characteristics) is determined by different variables of influences we acquire and develop.

Mammals have soul life…. but they cannot reason they operate by instinct. Beyond that… are questions that are outside of my capabilities that relate to how God set up the human body/mind to function.

It's a bit of rambling about "souls" with some embedded claims that other mammals have very different behaviors than humans. Have these people never observed the behaviors of other mammals? I wonder sometimes.
