You are invited to another thread I will open later on, on consciousness, souls and some other paranormal stuff. In there, we can discuss your questions in detail.

It's okay, you can answer here. When you ask people what they believe about certain things, yet you cannot even coherently describe what you mean by them then exactly how did you expect it to go ?

Maybe try answering my clarification questions, to tell you what I think about anything I have to learn how you came to your conclusions other than just jabbing and flip-flopping definitions. Don't you think why you believe what you do is important to the question. ?

Why do you believe the 'soul' gives life or is life ?
What reason do you have to believe that anything survives death ?

Simple questions (one would think) for a believer in these things to answer.

This thread is supposed to show where you stand among your definition of Atheism, not about proving the afterlife or souls.
Sounds like you’re too shy to explain yourself. 😊

It does not matter what you intended I'm asking because if there is evidence out there it's the most important thing for people to know. Wouldn't you agree ?

Do you, or do you not have any evidence ?

How does the soul give life ?
What evidence do you have to that it survives death of the body ?

Definitions are not evidence. If you a believer cannot even give reasons, then simply say you don't know.

Definitions IS the topic not proof of the paranormal. So what kind of atheist are you? 😄

Or you're too much of a dick to have that convo.  

It was your idea to talk souls, remember?

Why do  you believe, in the paranormal , or soul, afterlife, spirit, spiritual etc.. etc..  (we seem to keep adding words)  you have been asked over and over you seem not able to even justify your own belief in your own definitions.  Stop hiding and present your best argument for anyone to take you seriously.

I thought you were going to be a serious poster, but all I see is someone not being able to handle the word “church” in atheism. 😄

Is this really what apologetics has become ?

I seem to recall a few that at least were able to give reasons why they believed, albeit ones that didn't convince me.
