soul

Each individual one of us is a quantum, from which all that belongs to the self proceeds and to which all that is the self is joined. That quantum is the soul of the individual. It is the individual's purpose. It is currently resident in the individual's body and in control of that part of it that which is known as the brain.

The eternal you

The vast majority of believers, regardless of their religion, expect some form of eternal continuation of their existence after death. Christians and Moslims expect to go to either heaven or hell, and Hindus and Buddhists expect to be reincarnated.

Mainstream Christianity accounts for this continuation by postulating that each of us has a soul. But it has no clear and common idea of what a soul is, when a soul is born, how a soul affects the actions of its owner, or why it is is that a soul needs a body in order to be aware of itself.
