Yes .There is life before birth and life after death.Soul is carried by body.Man is a soul having body.That is why we say we donot know from where we have come and where we are going?World is a passing phase.

All persons are composed of 3 parts, a body, soul, and a spirit.  The body is what you can see now, the soul is the thinking part of you and your spirit is the part that goes on after the body dies.  The spirit is the part of you that experiences heaven or hell.  Some people think that the soul can be reborn into different bodies.  I haven' t determined what I think yet, I'm just gathering evidence from different sources.  I don't think anyone knows for sure exactly.  I think it may be a blend of everything.  I am sure that we are spiritual beings having an earthly experience.

The traditional Christian view is that man has a soul that was created and given by God at conception. \n\nWhen the body dies the soul lives on. The soul is eternal. Later, at the Great White Throne Judgment, all men will be judged according to deeds done in the body (i.e., while on earth).\n\nThe reward, for deeds done in the body, result in one of two eternal, permanent conditions.  Those who  deeds reveal they were haters of God and disobedient will be cast into Hell where their souls will endure everlasting torment for eternity.\n\nThose whose deeds reveal they obeyed the Gospel and lived it out while on earth (soley because of grace), will be rewarded with a new glorified body, and they will live in the New Earth where Jesus will reign forever as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.\n\nThus, for the Christian, death is but a temporary period in which the soul is separated from the body one will receive at the final resurrection.

First, you need to define evolution.  You're talking about micro evolution which has no problems with Christianity.  When you start getting into macro, stellar, cosmic and chemical evolution, we've got problems.\n\nIf the ebola virus evolved, it evolved from another virus.  That is micro evolution.  Macro evolution says that that process is evidence that a virus can turn into a dog over time.  This is where you're getting into religious faith and not science.  \n\nThere are hundereds of different breeds of dogs to include wolves and foxes, etc.  Micro evolution says that all those breeds of dogs came from a common ancestor...a dog.  Again, no problem with Christianity.\nMacro evolution will say that the dogs, cats, birds, snakes, plants, blah, blah, all came from a common ancestor.  That's ludicrous and severely contradicts the bible.\n\nNow, as far as your question about before the fall of man...\nGod told Adam that if they ate of the fruit, they would die.  We know that they didn't drop dead on the spot, so what did He mean?  He meant that they would change world events to bring death into the world.\n\nThe world event that possibly changed all of this was the flood.  When man knowingly was sinful (because of Adam), God had to destroy the world (death from the sin of Adam).  Before the flood, the earth had much different living conditions than we do today.  There was the protective canopy of water around the earth that made it paradise.  It increased the oxygen and air pressure to double, it blocked UV rays and had many other benefits.  This is how people were able to live to be 900 years old.\nIt's possible that viruses and other diseases started forming after that protective canopy was gone.  Add in man's industrial chemicals and we've got a recipe for disaster.\nThere was research done with poisonous snakes.  They put the snakes in a hyperbaric chamber and pumped the air pressure to double.  The snakes came out non-poisonous.  How was the world before the flood?  We can't know for sure, but some amazing scientific research has been done on this topic.\n\nAnother possibility is that many viruses were always there, but was just recently released because we went into the rain forest and started cutting down trees.  If it was locked in its environment before and we released it, then it didn't evolve, it was discovered.\n\nYou should check out www.drdino.com and download the seminar titled "The garden of Eden".  It will explain these things in much greater detail.

no, humans aren't evolved from anything.  they were created by God.

According to Christianity, Jesus was sent to us to set humankind on a different path than they were to begin with.  Perhaps humanity was already ont eh path to destruction, and this was God's way of intervening, saying "hey. listen up..."\n\nJesus' teachings were in the form of parables, or metaphor. He deliberately taught that way to make people think and to come to the answer on their own.  They have the choice to think or not, to accept what they find or not. \n\nPerhaps God was lonely...  that is another theory.

according to hinduism , jainism and buddhism every living being has a soul. even trees have it because they are evolving living beings. even botasnist do claim that the plants can feel !. so neanderthals had a soul. just because they may not have same beliefs as us it would be wrong to say that they did not have a soul.

Our soul starts its journey from chemicals, evolves in plants and animals and reaches Human beings. It has to undergo innumerable sufferings and pains and learn billions of lesson to prgoress towards its next evolutionary stage i.e. divinity.\n\nAnd one life is not enough for all these lessons. That also is the reason behind differnt type of peoples..why some are born rich, some are born poor, some idiots some intelligence. Even two children of the same parents, in the same environment do not progress alike... Reincarnation is the answer !!\n\nWhen we die, we die with a mental state, where we have some unfulfilled desires...some subtle some gross. The soul after death passes to some astral worlds where it prepares for the next birth, where it can continue its progress towards its evolution (mental evo..not physical)...these astral planes' working is quite similar to hells and heavens mentioned by religions...but the main purpose of these astral planes is not to punish or reward but to work out our desires and prepare us for our next birth\n\nHell and heaven are tools of religions to keep uncivilised human into some check... for a little evolved minds it is astral planes for purging or working the subtle desires

Hi Khalil, here are some answers to your questions. \nHow: God created the first human from mud and then blew on it from His own spirit, it started with Adam and Eve on heaven and then they were sent to Earth and from then they gave birth to kids and population growth began.\nWhen: No one really knows exactly, tens of thousands years ago. \nWhy: Adam and Eve (and whole of humanity later) were sent to Earth as an exam to see if they will pass the test of God who warned against sinning - thefts, adultary, lies, hurting others are all among the sins. Good people who will go to Heaven for eternity, and very bad people will go to Hell for eternity. In the end it all rests in God's hands.\nAbout life in other planets, there could be - no one really know exactly. But definately there exist non-human spirits like angels in life.

I believe it was when we gained knowledge. I don't believe in the Adam and Eve story as anything but mythology, but I do believe in both God and evolution. I believe it was just a metaphor for when our brains evolved to the point of intelligent reasoning and the thought processes that made us the dominant species. That was what eating the apple represented. So I'm sure our having souls and the entire concept of souls developed out of that accomplishment.\n\nNow I'm kinda going to have to rethink that considering I believe cats, dogs and horses have souls too, but I think it's because they have an emotional intelligence that chickens and cows and bugs just don't have.

We have evolved through these ages ourselves, with no help from some fairy tale. Humanity allows itself to be repressed by foolish stories of gods.

The closest I ever got to getting something that would answer your question was by reading Dr. Michael Newton's books: Journey of Souls and Destiny of Souls.\n\nI believe in what people in the book said about all the levels of soul knowledge and development. In Destiny of Souls there is a gorgeous account of a level "blue" soul that tells of what happens to those who unite with the God-force (the ones you are asking about).\n\nCheck these books out. You might or might not find what you are looking for...\n\nGood luck!

1000 years later! Humans have evolved beyond all base sentiments and minor jealousies. There are no religions any where. The only religion accepted willingly by all in Humanism. No terrorism . No wars. All humans dress alike and no beards or turbans or head scarfs. The world as a whole has one Government. There is no poverty or sickness. The super-biotics laboratory has solved all problems by evolving a single pill which is answer for all problems. There is no diabetes or heart disease due to stem cell research evolving solutions. Humans have established settlements on Moon and construction activity on Mars is in full swing for further Human settlements. The epoch-making technological developments on rocket fuels has resulted in these developments. The average life span of Humans is 150 years. Sex is considered  sacred and development of superior embryos has lead to men and women who are step ahead of all angels in beauty and intelligence.There are no gays. The only problem humanity is facing is the threat of aliens who have taken over planet Jupiter. Negotiations are in advanced stage for settlements. We are hopeful of Peace at last for humanity.

I believe that our soul journeys through this world, in many different lifetimes, till we have learned all the lessons put before us and we attain enlightenment.  Then our soul is freed from this earth and obtains a celestial form.  I don't believe in heaven or hell.  Hell is re-living the same lesson over and over again because we're too stupid to get it!  I've known a few people who have done that!  I don't think our souls could inhabit an animal body.  That just doesn't make sense to me.

ahh, well, not really a higher power, just a unifing spirit between all people, and yes, other life forms spread out in this vast universe of ours. and yes, the whole ceasing to exist after death, but i have to believe that humans are still evolving, just not as rapidly anymore as the same rules of "survival of the fittest" don't really apply anymore since we can save even the weak ones.

I guess that is a question of faith, there is no way to prove anyone has a soul,but if you believe in God, I would say no, because God gives a baby a soul when they are conceived in their mother's womb. To clone someone is not God's doing but man's. God would not give a soul to something he didn't create. Man making clones is like them trying to eliminate the need for God.
