What Is The Soul?

C'mon.

We know who's white around here.

Almost everyone.

Oh, but there are different shades of white sir. From the trusty Urban Dictionary:

Inner Thigh White

Unusually caucasian. Skin is pasty or ghostly white. Not an albino nor a day-walker. i.e. a white person who is whiter than white, almost glowing white or so pale you will surely be burned extra crispy in the sun. Can also refer to a personality type.
1. OMG, look at that guys skin --- he is inner thigh white.
2. Only inner thigh white people listen to this kind of music.

Pretty soon we'll have segregated water fountains for those who have a soul or don't have a soul .....

Yay! Lord-and-master-of-the-thread quarky should allow us to discuss "soul" with each other, if no one else. :cool: (<-- Dig my cool, soul shades?)

Yan-luo will judge all souls when it enters the underworld to await reincarnation...I don't see any blood or anything mentioned anywhere.
 
Well the taoist concept of the "soul" is more interesting since humans have parts to a souls, a Yin and Yang part, that make up the upper, rational part and the base, animal part.
 
I want to know if God owns the soul, then why do we need a god-father (i.e. James Brown)?

To answer the OP:
The soul is whatever the heck the claimant wants it to be. It is often defined(a bit of an oxymoron) as some undefined animating "thing" that makes human life more special.

Yep. It's the magical quality of somehow being better than an animal, in the face of evidence that one is, in fact, an animal.

Speak for yourself. I am a poi dog. Does that mean you will allow me to discuss soul? Or are your overgeneralizations rules too strict for that?

Frankly, I've always been willing to allow any sort of discussion. In fact, its never occurred to me that I had any power (or inclination) to prevent one.

Strict?

I'm anti-strict.

Color me surprised that you (and Pax) are people of color.
Or, who cares that you aren't?

Poi-dog-pondering?

I was once told what soul is, by someone that had it. Like a fool, I believed him.

Still, a silly distinction.
A white guy can earn the 1000 yard stare.

Rats. I thought the moves the keyboardist was throwing down would compensate for the "white factor". I'll have to try again.

Actually, I know how the white factor fits into this now. It all makes sense. The blood .... white people .... the soul .... God .... the godfather .... I can finally say I'm a believer:

And I left you hanging on that note to poop out the thread :( Sorry LOL ;) I had to go tend to a baby :). May the Blues Bros and their Hawaiian reps forgive me :(

Back to the OP .... I wonder if it will be a gangbuster to fizzle ...
