What is our Soul made of?

What is the composition of our soul?

Our body is mostly the molecular combination of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen. It is built in the material realm and perishes here. It's like borrowed suit, one we returned at end of the day.

Soul definitely is not of matrial origin and does not perish in this physical realm.

So what do you think is the soul made of?

It's an information set and as such it has tangibility.

@leftsw That's an interesting definition. A tangible collection of data!
If it's ok, care to elaborate on your thoughts?

@Renkon I'm not here to correct the conclusions of others.

@leftsw N @leftsw That is not what I meant.
I likeyour explanation, and it is correct in many ways. That's almost the definition of intelligence: a tangible setof information.

I was curious as to what you believe makes soul tangible. Can we access it?

leftsw

@Renkon We first need to separate the idea of soul from spirit. Soul is strictly a product of the physical realm and its tangibility is demonstrable in two ways: media transference and simple divisibility. We could also include interaction.

@leftsw hmm

, I thought it the other way around. The soul being a non-physical entity.

Could you tell me what's media transference and how is soul divisible?

leftsw

@Renkon Spirit is the magic equivalent of soul favored by the faiths. It's a redundant, irrational and non-testable idea that can't be successfully argued to include God or to offer us immortality.

Information sets survive media transference intact. One example is a fax. If you only send half the fax that's divisibility. If they respond in kind that's interaction.

Tangibility is the only possibility for immortality
