The idea of not possessing a soul is terrifying...

I can't tell for sure if I posses a soul or not,I've always been terrified of this possibility...The idea of "nothing" always scared me.
Do you think some people got souls and others do not?
I've been unconscious before, and I think that's what it feels to do not posses a soul...
And if your brain is just a tool for processing our consciouness,how come when the brain is shuttted off from drugs, we are unconciouss? Don't you think we would experience our soul even when the brain isn't working...

I do not believe in a soul and many people feel the same, so don't worry, you find your own beliefs as you progress in spirituality.

So you believe we go into oblivion when we die? if not, isn't the soul necessary?

Whatever, soul/spirit...same thing. I could change the question then and ask what if we don't posses a spirit.

Soul/spirit, reincarnation/rebirth are different things, mybe thats why your getting confused. Google them, it might help you see the big difference then you can come back and discuss it further ok.

You understand what I meant... what if when we die we go into oblivion and our consciouness ceases to exist?
