I have had a revelation from GOD and more. It takes very little to go from atheist to believer. I do not believe that science should be neglected, because of a belief in GOD. The GOD of creation is a GOD of order and he loves logic, reason and truth.
I'd almost go as far as saying that this seems like you're pretending to believe this, - for a joke. It somewhat seems like it IMO.
Oh and btw, the Flying Spaghetti Monster is just as plausible as any other 'supernatural' God.

Oh, and one more thing, whether you're really serious or not: If the soul=conscious mind and the heart=unconscious mind...then whats supernatural about that? What's supernatural about the soul and the spirit if they're merely material parts of the mind that can be explained neurologically etc.
P.S: You're surprisingly fun to debate with, it seems as though something funny's going on.

Remember, the neurological perspective, while valid, is only an aspect of the truth. The spirit is a part of GOD. Only GODs word can nourish the spirit. The spirit/soul lives on after death. I dis-regarded the bible, until earlier this year when I had a spiritual birth.
Quote:If the soul=conscious mind and the heart=unconscious mind...then whats supernatural about that? What's supernatural about the soul and the spirit if they're merely material parts of the mind that can be explained neurologically etc.Where is the spiritual explanation? Other than just a mere claim that spirit exists? I said that you said that the conscious mind is soul and the unconcsious mind is spirit...if they are just parts of the mind....how's that spiritual? How's that supernatural?
Its like Steven Weinberg said, and I paraphrase here: 'If you say God is the universe or God is energy. Then you can find God in a lump of coal.'
How is that in any way spritual or supernatural? How is that anything other than material? What's spiritual about that?
Ok I gotta go, just for the now, - I'll be back later.
