The brain does this
The brain does this alsosoul = psyche = gives us self-consciousness via the mind, the will, and the emotions
Reading and blind faith, which the brain gives us the capacity to do, also does this.spirit = pneuma = gives us God-consciousness via the Scriptures"
what does the spirit do? I suspect nothing the brain doesn't already do.
Sorry but all 3 of those are covered by the brain.
and your spirit is totally different from most peoples interpretations of spirit. Spirit can simply mean determination.
Basically speaking the soul of man is who we are... our personality, our intellect, our will. The spirit of man connects with God. The body is the vehicle of expression that houses the soul and spirit. The brain is the control center of the body which is powered by the soul and the spirit. While the spirit, soul and body are all closely related and entwined, the soul and spirit go on forever, but the body with its brain do not.
Book, chapter, and verse please?Those are all done by the brain av
our brainBasically speaking the soul of man is who we are
...our brain... our personality
our brainour intellect,
and our spleen... I mean, brain.our will.
By an emotional response to profound faith originating in the brainThe spirit of man connects with God.
which is controlled by the brainThe body
from our brainis the vehicle of expression
which seem to still do nothing different than what we already know the brain does.that houses the soul and spirit.
You're getting it!The brain is the control center of the body
The brain is fueled mostly by oxygenated blood and glucose, actually.which is powered by the soul and the spirit.
Care to quantify these? Maybe show a tangible example of the soul of, say, John Candy or John Belushi?While the spirit, soul and body are all closely related and entwined, the soul and spirit go on forever,
Other organs our body will not survive without: heart, lungs, kidneys, intestines, spinal chord, liver, and many others.but the body with its brain do not.
Book, chapter, and verse please?
That's just it, these ideas came about at a time when men knew nothing of the brain so they put them all down to the workings of a spirit.do i really need to show that emotion comes from the brain... i mean that's really basic stuff. Everyone should know that already
Care to quantify these?
I think you are talking about near death experiences not after death experiences and there is no proven, documented case where the patient saw anything they couldn't have seen in the room. I have had one myself and there is no way to know if the light, etc. is just the result my the brain shutting down temporarily due to lack of oxygen or to the fact that the only thing I could see while lying on the floor was the bright light on the ceiling or something truely "supernatural". Certainly the narrowing of the field of vision that occurs prior to loss of conciousness is the result of lack of oxygen and I assume the feeling of being "outside" of my body could be to.I only have to point out that there have been over a million after death experiences where people still thought, felt (emotionally), saw and heard OUTSIDE of their bodies APART from their brains. These people over and over had similar experiences whether young or old or blind or connected in any way to each other. There is plenty of evidence if one would just want to look at it. I have also seen some of the skeptics suggestions to these occurances. They only have speculation to what these people have experienced and there is no evidence to support their speculation.

So, without evidence to support speculation allows one to speculate?I only have to point out that there have been over a million after death experiences where people still thought, felt (emotionally), saw and heard OUTSIDE of their bodies APART from their brains.

No he found a part of the brain which causes a belief in the non physical. So when someone says bla bla bla believe this to get in touch with the non physical, its actually a sensation the brain causes instead. so getting in touch with the non physical is actually getting in touch with a part of the brain and believing its spiritual. In other words whenever a christian says they are getting in touch with god or talking to god its actually a part of the brain ;pHe found a physical part of the brain which is a part of the non-physical? This one ought to be good.
That's just it, these ideas came about at a time when men knew nothing of the brain so they put them all down to the workings of a spirit.
Chemicals released by the brain can be beneficial for the heart.The attributes you attribute to the heart are actually only in the brain.
The heart just pumps blood.
This goes both ways...They only have speculation to what these people have experienced and there is no evidence to support their speculation.
and some people prefer to go for the most outlandish explanation for things.
I saw a light; therefore an advanced civilization from beetlejuice is doing surveillance for an invasion. Someone hallucinated, so god is real.
Try those rules of evidence in court!
