Cambridge mason is also local, but maybe all of New England to include Adept? I am going to start a new thread with a meeting suggestion so as not to veer off topic again. |

The only other Boston area Mason I'm familiar with on this forum is Windriver, but I'm game after I retire on Nov. 4.

Yes, absolutely correct. There are many advantages in face to face discussions, such as fewer misinterpretations. Which brings up an idea I've been toying with - how does a meeting of Boston area Masons of this forum with me in front of the Massachusetts Grand Lodge on Tremont street and take the tour of the building together that they offer (M, W, F, 10am - 4pm)?

There is nothing more amusing than watching so called educated intellectuals, banter back and forth. All the fancy words and isms' cast about, and what have we learned....nothing. It must be what second and third graders sound like on the playground at private schools. Please carry on though, the entertainment value is priceless.

Thanks, I guess it was I that missed your original reply. Apologies for that. Although you didn't need to add to it. Quoting it for me would have been sufficient. My response is this... You DID state (in your quoted text shown above) that certain peoples, and their religious beliefs are/were superstitious. I think (know) that they would disagree, and could claim the same about you, and your chosen religious beliefs. You further stated in your reply that ALL Protestants are heretics. I think (know) that they would disagree also. Formal college education is not required to point out hypocritical thinking. But it would appear that it enables one not to recognize it at all.... At least in one case I can think of... Education is not synonymous with intelligence. I've known, and know plenty of college "educated" individuals who were/are as numb as a hammer pounded thumb. |

No problem. All too familiar if you ever read the history of the kabbalah or Sabbatai Tsevi or Jacob Franks or of Crypto Jews or of the Young Turks or of the Donmeh in Turkey. Those following characteristics are the Jewish interpretation of the Soul! Not original thinking on your part, but good research on an already existing orthodox 'religious' Jewish theology. Coach, does your doctorate in Theology teach this view on the soul, or are you just convinced of the soul concept as found in Judaism? |

Again, I do not know what is your level of education, but I always write to people as if they are college graduate level or above. Every college graduate (coach included I think) has a commonality of knowledge of history, math, philosophy, English grammar & syntax (not semantics), logic & rhetoric that are called the 'requirements' of the degree before you focus on your major or specialty. So I find it awkward to make a salient point only to have to spend the next dozen or so posts explaining basic grammar or history or logic; or have my well written explanation totally misinterpreted either through accident or design. As I just explained I never have said any religion was a superstition. In fact we were taught in college that superstition and religion are two separate things and have nothing to do with each other. The History of Religion, Comparative Religions, and the Philosophy of Religion also separate superstition from theology, but not the Freemasons????? IF that is true, THEN the Masons are only going to marginalize themselves from mainstream accepted and proven thought. I hope this explanation suffices. |

I don't know if you missed this, or simply chose to ignore it, but I wonder if you might elaborate a little on your statements? How is it that you can regard the people and groups you listed above as superstitious for their religious beliefs and not regard all other religious beliefs in kind. Yours included of course. I'm sorry, but I can't board that train of thought... |

I am sorry to hear that every Christian denomination has rejected the fact that animals and plants do not have souls; I knew some did reject that fact, not all. Are you sure? Oh well, regardless, that is my belief. Like I said, it seems a bit arrogant and uppity to think we are the only ones who have souls. So, I believe in something pantheists believe in. I don't know what else they believe in, but I don't think of myself as a Pantheist. Aside from what you just wrote I don't know anything about Pantheism. I've done a bit of reading about Gnosticism and there are some things about it that makes sense to me. Whether it's true, who knows? Edited by droche - September/02/2016 at 1:52pm |

But that is Pantheism, that plants & animals have a soul - which every denomination of Christianity has rejected. But Pantheism is found within Gnosticism, and those belief systems which emphasize Gnosticism. Comparative Religion & the Philosophy of Religion explains all this interesting stuff. |

I got both premises wrong - if that was what you were trying to say?? Souls are not things according to Coach. See his above post [these posts really need to be numbered]. Now let me try again. Syllogism II: All Souls are not things (according to coach) All humans are souls (according to coach) --------------------------- Therefore humans are not things? or Humans don't have souls? My major premise (from coach: Souls are not things) My minor premise (from coach: humans are souls) Conclusion: ????? Could somebody adept at syllogisms help me out here? This is an interesting paradox. Thank you coach! |

Notice he is now claiming victim status. Notice his dismissal of the obvious. Notice how he claims a question cannot be misleading. Notice how he complains about things that have nothing to do with the thread. Notice how he hijacks the thread and complains about it being hijacked.
Notice how he views humans as things. Notice how he still avoids answering the questions posed. Notice how his training doesn't prevent his behavior. |

That is a question, not a statement. There is nothing misleading about an interogative! Is this the source of confusion that no one knows the difference between a question and a statement? Do you see this (?) - that is called a question mark. It indicates a question being asked, not a statement being made. Questions are not misleading - a question is a request for information. PLEASE STOP HIJACKING MY THREAD!
Now that is tremendously interesting. Kant avoided this subject but Kant's negligence was brought out by Schopenhauer. Yet despite coach's obvious absolute statement (always a mistake to make), it seems coach has created a paradox from a previous post where he recomends to drop the view that souls as things. Syllogism: If humans are souls and humans are things, ---------------------- Then souls are things? Of course I might have gotten my major and minor premises wrong, but this is an interesting paradox none the less (note: paradoxes are not contradictions). |

I define "soul" or "spirit" (one and the same as far as I'm concerned) as conciseness. Our conciseness is contained within our brains. We humans are aware of our conciseness, and our finite existence on this spec of cosmic dust we call planet earth. So by my personal definition, we are just one of many species on earth with brains, and conciseness. We humans however, being aware as we are of our limited time here have developed myth after myth after silly myth about what happens to our conciseness after our bodies fail and we die. "soul/spirit" is a direct result of that wish thinking. A desire to believe that there is something inside us that continues to be, after we cease to be. The desire to live on after death. |

Brother, I propose an entirely different view and claim the second proposed thread question "Do only humans have one?" is preposterous and utterly misleading. Humans don't have souls.

Well you finally gave an answer. The fact that you do not know is an acceptable answer to me. In case you missed it, I gave my definition of "soul" a while ago: that part of oneself that survives the death of the physical body. So back to your original question: Do only humans have a soul? I think I might have answered that also in the same post but it was so many posts ago I can't remember. My own belief is that all animals, perhaps even plants have a soul, as I define it. Do I know for sure? Of course not, but my belief is pretty strong. Some denominations I think teach that only humans have a soul. To me this is kind of arrogant. For example, I find it difficult to believe that I have a soul, but my dog, who is so affectionate, protective and loyal does not. Humans share more characteristics with animals than not, so why not a soul, as I define it? Of course everyone has a difficult time defining "soul." It is so abstract that it is beyond the realm of the human mind to understand. Perhaps in the evolutionary process, beings who come after us (assuming all of us who are here now don't wipe out everything there is) will have a more clear understanding. |

PLENTY to discuss. If/then conditional: IF modern theologians see the soul and spirit as one, THEN why do other theologians still maintain that the soul is multi-faceted? This is a conundrum which 'might' be solved using a syllogism or a sorite? Somebody is mistaken since no one is infallible. More if/then conditionals: IF there is a soul, THEN how do humans prove it exists? IF there is a soul, THEN why would it be whole or multi-faceted? IF there is a soul, THEN why do religions/philosophy hold so many versions of it? BUT! - I think the answer might lie in the very nature of the IF/THEN Conditional itself (without using a syllogism or sorite):

A quick scan of the above posts: Coach's reply - One part is soul. The other helps manifest if, but it is not the soul. This is extremely familiar to me. In fact a many faceted soul is found in the Ancient Egyptian religion in which the 'ka' is just one but important aspect of the soul. The superstitious ancient Egyptians took a multi-aspect 'gestalt' view of the human soul, that it was divided into five or more parts, with the 'ka' being equivalent to a 'spirit'. Remember, modern philosophers and theologians agree that soul and spirit are one in the same. Following the Egyptian interpretation, Madame Blavatsky invented a new religion called THEOSOPHY, in which the soul, Egyptian like, is multi-faceted and the 'spirit' helps hold the soul together or the spirit helps manifests it. This is also found in Jewish eschatology, especially in the book ZOHAR (kabbalah) which not only has a multi-faceted soul, but also espouses the transmigration of souls, from one human being to another after death. Thus Jacob Franks claimed he was the reincarnation of Sabbatai Tsevi (the messaiah). So One Part Soul - the other (spirit?) helps manifest it - is a view held by the superstitious ancient Egyptians, Theosophers, Kabbalists, Frankists, and others. But not contemporary theologians. Interesting.

You would have had a lot more success with this thread had simply stated this up front rather than contributing to the ongoing circle jerking and coming across like an evasive troll. If you want a definition, I recommend that you stop thinking of soul as a "thing", like most everyone assumes. Start understanding that soul is a characteristic indicative of synergy. Soul appears only when synergy occurs; and disappears when synergy stops. Soul also produces a track record when the characteristic appears. If you are a bible believer or even someone who looks to the bible for clues, your first clue to what I am referring to can be found in Genesis 2:7: And Hashem Elohim formed the adam of the aphar min haadamah, and breathed into his nostrils the nishmat chayyim; and the adam became a nefesh chayyah. (And the LORD God formed the man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.) Soul is revealed through some or all of the following characteristics: 1) Animation 2) Thought 3) Awareness 4) Understanding ------ (starting to get also into spirit here) ------ 5) Perception 6) Insight 7) Emotion Have at it... |

Yes I did the asking. But only one or two actually tried to answer the questions. The rest of this thread is a huge digression away from topic - define soul? I wouldn't be asking Freemasons this question if I already knew the answer - hence my question: DEFINE SOUL? And mostly for answers I'm getting circumlocutions and equivocations and reversals. One of the problems I am having with my Roman Catholic faith is the lack of a definitive description of what the soul is. Other religions have the same problem with soul description. I cannot accept that there is no soul, yet I cannot define it either. P.S. Is there any way to number these forum answers to refer back to various answers?? Thanx.

Excellent. Wikipedia is intellectual idolatry. Quoting Wiki definitions does not prove you understand the concept you're explaining, wiki is not definitive, wiki sources cannot be substantiated, and wiki is simply a 'graffitti' wall of personal opinions, not scholarly research.

Correct. Occurrences are 'discovered'.
No? The scientific method is based on discovering occurrences.
Differentiate 'aware' from 'discovery'? Doesn't discovery make you aware? Discovery comes first, awareness comes second?
