FatherOfJesus:
But it seem to me that you don't know that it's your brain that controls every single damn thing in your body, including the ability for you to move your hand and touch a hot plate.

Without the brain sending impulse inform of neurotransmissions to muscles of your hand, you cannot move them to touch the hot plate. This explains why people with stroke cannot move certain parts of their bodies, the part of the Brain that sends impulse to the part is non-functional.

Do you understand it now?
Why are you trying to insert a spirit into the equation?

But you just said now that you have no control of the brain? Then who is the brain and who is controlling those impulses sent by the brain.

are you seriously asking me who the brain is or you are joking?
Neurotransmitters and hormones control how the brain sends impulse.

Yes you have no control of the brain. You can only train it.
What’s this “brain” that you can’t control?

You have control over the brain when it comes to controlling emotions. No spirit does that for you.
It's all chemical reactions

But you don’t have control of the brain sometimes.
That means the brain is different from you. 2 separate entity inside you.

The brain is you, that's why the words "self control" and "self-discipline" exist.

How is the brain you, when “you” still have to control it?
If it’s under your control you won’t need to have self control to start with.

self-control is the ability for you to not let your brain over-control you, it's a way of trying to control your brain to an extent.

I have not seen how a spirit enters this discussion. You don't like logical explanations?

Will you let the argument go if I agree that a spirit controls the brain even without evidence?

Why does the brain want to overcome you? Who is this Brain that’s overcoming you? The brain is different from you that’s controlling it, right?

I didn’t say the spirit is the brain. The soul is the brain.

The brain is the soul and spirit.
Are you happy now?

No, the brain is the soul. Check the origin of the word “soul”
Hope you are not sad?

Seems like the argument won't make any sense to you if you can't see spirit in it.
That's why you keep asking questions like "who is the brain"?

That question doesn't make sense.

Ok, so when we die the brain which is the soul goes to heaven right?

It makes total sense.
Your Brain sends impulses and desires without your approval, that’s why you have to control it.
Then who is this brain that you want to control.

So according to you, the brain which is the soul is what goes to heaven or hell when we die right?

Who said anything about heaven?
And the brain can’t die. It’s you that’s controlling it that will die

The Bible said the soul goes to heaven when it dies.
And since you said the brain is the soul, it's means that the brain goes to heaven when we die.

I'm trying to expand your ideas to Christian beliefs.
When we die, the brain goes to heaven according to you.
You must be a genius grin

Yes the Bible said it, Zeus also said something like that. They are myth.

Christian belief why don’t you use Hinduism?

It makes as much sense as you saying that the Brain is the soul.

Let me rephrase it.

Brain is the soul, why not the kidney?

You gave us an example of how their is a brain and you have to control it.
Which example do you have Zeus ?

I gave an example on how the bran controls the body and then you said the brain is the soul.

That makes alot of sense

That means you don’t have control of the brain, you can only train it.
The brain is different from you that’s controlling it.

It was you that brought in heaven and hell? Why not relate it to Hinduism?

So how's the brain our soul?
Or should I get a dictionary defintion of soul for you?
