@XxMarkTFx THEY DON'T WANT TO INVESTIGATE BECAUSE IT IS AGAINST THEIR POLICY AND CULTURE. JUST LIKE THE EARTH IS FLAT AND ANYONE WHO SAYS OTHERWISE IS COMMITTING BLASPHEMY.

THESE PEOPLE DON'T WANT THE PUBLIC TO BE ENLIGHTENED.

@PUNISHERUltra They do, you just need to investigate.

I enjoyed listening to their differing points of view, however it seemed that they spent an awful amount of time explaining it when I already knew most of this stuff. Atleast it gives me some type of relief to know someone thinks on the same level as I about consciousness. I am sure this video helped alot of people grasp the ideas that they knew they were thinking but didnt know how to explain it to themselves.

I agree with punisherultra, they seem to guess only, do not know anything for sure. No hard evidence at all. This lecture is disappointing. I have not learnt anything new. Although, evidence is not essential to know that the soul is eternal and thus a totally different entity to that of the body. Soul is also the same as consciousness. Consciousness is God. Consciousness is not only individual but collective too.

Thus everything that exists is God/some form of energy. Not to mention emotion also has its own body within the physical body. I also believe science and religion are not contrary to one another but in fact has the same goal. Science answers questions such as how, while religion answers why.

TO PUT IT BASICALLY: THEY DON'T KNOW SHIT, BUT THEY SUSPECT A SOUL THAT IS PROBABLY HYPER DIMENSIONAL AND NOT COMPOSED OF MATTER.

FUCK YOU
