There's fault in that logic.
If it is true, we all have eternal souls, than an eternal soul cannot cease to exist. But an eternal soul CAN be retrained, if it takes what feels like an eternity................

You know I had a dream once about the Rapture ..
I was looking at the earth close up and at an angle ..
It looked like night time (the sun wasnt shining) it could have just been symbolic though of a darkened world ...like in the end times like we are now.
Anyway ..I saw people curled up asleep kind of floating as if in water or space.
But everyone was connected with an umbilical chord to the earth ....all of a sudden several of those peoples chords just broke off at the end and they floated up instantly .....I looked around and there were alot of people still asleep and still had the umbilical chord connected ...end of dream..
I see this dream meaning this .......those who are connected to the umbilical chord are people who are OF the world and worldy..they are bound by the fleshly (Their choice ) ..the ones who disconnected and floated up are those who are spiritual and are in this world but not OF It ......They were FREED (Raptured in the air to meet the Lord) from the bonds of the earth ..
From Flesh to Spirit ....it will be complete when the Lord calls us up to him.In a twinkling of an eye we shall be changed from corruption(our connection through the umbilical cord ) to incorruption (Cord is broken and we are freed to go with the Lord) ..........

Have you ever considered that maybe YOU have everything backwards? I highly doubt it. I doubt you've ever looked past your booketh for answers.

Seek God he will provide answers for you in many ways, the bible and elsewhere, but, the answer may not be what you expected..........

The Holy Tribunal in Galileo's condemnation states: "The proposition that the sun is the center of the world and does not move from its place is absurd and false philosophically and formally heretical, because it is expressly contrary to the Holy Scripture.
The proposition that the earth is not the center of the world and immovable, but that it moves, and also with a diurnal motion, is equally absurd and false philosophically, and theologically considered, at least erroneous in faith."
The Roman Curia promptly banned and confiscated Galileo's monumental work; and it became the basis for his second trial, censure, and lifetime house arrest by the Holy Office of the Inquisition in 1633. The Roman Catholic Church convicted him of breaking his agreement of 1616 and of teaching the Copernican theory as a truth and not a hypothesis. They suspected him of holding heretical opinions condemned by the Church, which they ordered him to abjure [abandon a false opinion]. Seven of the ten Cardinals presiding signed his condemnation.

Well then I guess you have not been reading my posts ...because I am 48 years old and have read up on EVERY belief ...(Including some Scientific ones) .I have also LIVED through MUCH ...I have also been pretty much booted from some Churchs ...because I told them in so many words that the bible says WE ARE FREE not some religious drones who are supposed to sit up under men who believe they have all the answers (Preachers etc) >.The word told me that I HAD NO NEED FOR MAN TO TEACH ME >.but that the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD would teach me ..and so it was ....The word is my MAP and my Direction book ...and the spirit of God within me is my TEACHER ...
And I can assure that I am no where near LAZY ...
And I am not frustrated because I found what I was looking for .. I dont understand everything and I believe we wont understand EVERYTHING .. ....but I do have a basic understanding of the word and the Lord God of heaven ..and what is expected of me as a Believer in him .....while I am here on this earth ...
I am content with where I am and looking forward to where I am going from here ...I have inner peace and have so much joy and love in my heart that it overflows .....I love ALL PEOPLE and I pray for all who are FRUSTRATED that they too will find that peace and joy and love that I believe I found (I went through alot to find it Marie ...I can tell you without a doubt that it is real)

I have no design on Theology I'm more stating that this doesn't make since......The agency named is inept and can't even do the job they are charged with now. I as a holder of a Doctorate in Theology will be the first to admit that theology is the oldest name for the condition called hypocrisy and ignorance.
Say what ? Could you break that down in simple terms for me to understand what your saying ?
