Or bad deeds can darken the soul and make the light practically disappear. Good deeds increase the light of the soul.
That said, I wonder if most humans automatically regard goodness as something that increases humans quantitatively as well qualitatively. That is some real existence increases when more goodness is done that corresponds to goodness. The good nature in the human increases that is, but not just metaphorically, but in reality. Would that be possible without a soul?
Would this inner light be a proof of the divine if it exists?
"Traits", or "the state" of a point (or volume) in space can defined the system around them. Even if they are unknown. Start there.
When you continue down this line of logic leave out all, to the best of your ability, words like "religion" vs. "science". Let it go where it goes, not where you feel good about it.
this is my first line in my personal logic. If you can prove it a fallacy it would be much appreciated.
