What is your opinion on the existence of the soul? Does an eternal unchanging soul exist as in Christianity or Hinduism, is the Self just a collection of aggregates that creates a false idea of a cohesive being as in Buddhism, or is there something else?

Soul means romance, ie silly.
PS It's OK to be silly.

Where do you think the idea came from in the first place?

From the soul?

Well, that settles that.

It depends on your definition of "soul". Because there are many words that may refer to one thing, but each word carries different presumptions which may not be justified.

That's what the thread is about. Thanks for re-stating? Perhaps a little earlier than needed.

The OP doesn't say anything about definitions.

How we wish there was something else.. But no we're just the victims of a series of accidents

Great.

Please. Accidents, yes, but lighten up on the drama of it all. It's embarrassing.

A soul is the electricity in your television; the body cannot live without a soul, the same way a television cannot function without electricity.
The soul is not the self - as the self is the house and the soul is the light, that light that allows you to see in that house - here, your power supplier is the one G.O.D. This is why you should know yourself!
Most of us are plugged in, see, we soak in TV like a sponge and don't pay the electricity bill so all we have left then is the light of the television, do you see? And it burns into the retinas and we walk around seeing just television; whatever is broadcast to us is all we see. Suddenly, it's night time, and everyone just puts their television in front of their face facing outward and they walk around like that.

Do you need some dressing for your word salad?

Son, you'd eat it as a salad; to the wise it is a roasted pig!

That metaphysical souls don't exist, and we all just rot in the ground. (Well, assuming anyone's death doesn't involve vaporization or being ejected into space or something)
I'm sure anything is scientifically possible, but there's no logical reason to believe conclusively that anyone possess a soul.

>we all just
If you didn't believe in a soul, you wouldn't have worded this statement like this.
