RE: do Atheists have souls?
Let me see if I understand this you are asking atheist to define our souls? In a world where pretty much every new nor ancient religion can't even come to a common ground about the definition of soul?
Isn't ….I dunno Undecided….. define the souls subject a topic for religious people? And is up to the atheist to decide the logical and reasonable of their definition? Why it's our problem to define souls? Because if we are trading places then could you(a religious person I assume) define the influence, existence, and objective of the brains biochemical substances in a world where it's religious systems claims that it's an unquestionable fact that every emotion it's considered evidence of our spirits?


And no offense but if atheism is the lack of belief in any spiritual existence doesn't that answer the question by itself? Did it really needed a hole thread to answer that question? What did you expected we where gonna say?

Well, humans have a consciousness, which one might call a "soul" - it's stored mostly in the brain, and electrical impulses, and stuff...

But I don't have a soul, because I'm a vampire. *bears fangs*

I guess my "soul" is that part of myself I use for art. It's that place in my consciousness where dream and nightmares dwell. A deeper part of mind I guess.

You can still be an atheist and believe in souls.
I however don't.

That's the thing about the term atheist, it only answers the question "do you believe in god". There is nothing else you can really pin on it.

You would have to define soul before asking for an answer to this question. If it means some kind of part of you that lives on after your death, then no, this has never been shown to exist at all and can safely be filed under non-existent.

As far as I can tell, the only kind of soul that exists is the sweet music genre.

The French Catholics invented the term "atheist" to describe the Protestants during the late 1570s. It was a slur against them because the Protestants had renounced the Catholic faith. The Catholics were in effect calling them godless. So, do Protestants have souls or just Catholics?
