    How about this: what if our souls are simply our thoughts, some of which are random and some of which are more intentional like the one's that are connected to our actions. And this: thoughts, being electrical impulses, emanate from our head out into space. And space being curved, means our thoughts will eventually will come back around. Would that be what is meant by reincarnation? And what about the nature of our thoughts as related to how they travel? Do negative thoughts hold a different charge and dissipate whereas positive thoughts ride as smoother, more steady, and consistent waves that travels back here more readily?

    Just a thought. (I wonder where it will go?)


    absolutely negative thoughts are different than positive thoughts. I get a fucking headache from negative thoughts and nothing but calm from positive thoughts so....

    I don't agree with your hypothesis of what reincarnation is.. simply because I don't believe that concept as we define it exists. as matter on this planet can not be added to or subtracted from(so ive heard) I believe that when we(and everything else) are returned to the ground(from where we came) the atoms(no longer needed for their previous use) are rearranged into something else.. be it a raccoon or a flower or a rock or human. that's the concept of reincarnation I accept.

    my conscience is my soul.

    Yeah, to be honest, I've always like that thought myself. Which is why I hope to be buried in the ground and have a tree planted over me. Or maybe something more exotic! :lol:

    But seriously, I've heard that the energy of our thoughts do emanate as energy waves and if so, they must go somewhere. I hope at least some of them add something positive to the universal vibe- not just in an esoteric sense, but for real.

    It's pretty presumptuous for humans to judge what is "intelligent life" and what isn't. What if we're not intelligent life?

    what is your definition of intelligent life ?

    Same thing that happens to every other soul, if there is any such thing.
