Default Re: For atheists only - do you believe in a soul?

I'd like a definition of "soul" to be provided, but I answered "no" anyway because I'm pretty sure that's what I'd say provided any definition you'd give.

I believe that "I," that is, the conscious experience, is a natural result of a functional brain, much like the "fizzing" is a natural result of combining an acid and a base. It is immaterial, variable, and does not survive death. What the experience of death is like is something I can't answer as I can't relate to it.
