why so many people thinks that your body is not a prison for soul?what is the main things related with prison?

Exactly. Prison restricts your freedom but body helps the soul to have new experiences that the soul cannot have on its own. It is a useful tool given to a soul so that it can explore life.\nYou are put into a prison but you are not put into a body. You choose to be ina body because you want to experience what you have missed.\nGiving you the freedon is in other people's hands depending on your behavior in the prison, who are there to judge, but the soul passes its own judgement. When we die, we judge for ourselves. We may not realize that we are dead and haunt the place. We may be miserable over something we did or something we could not do and just refuse to pass on and live as ghosts. We may want to repent and choose a more miserable life for ourselves. We may want to see something new that we wanted to so much in the past life but couldn't and plan our own life and lessons we think we will learn while being there. Our soul is the piece of God, pure and just and we are our own authorities. We are not guided by others.\nWe choose to keep on learning until our desire to see more, to experience more, ultimately gets quenched and we go back to join the Whole or get 'Moksha', as you call it.\nYou get a body as a tool it. You use it, misuse it, abuse it is all up to yourself. You are your own authority in this world too. As a soul, you plan some events for yourself with a view to learn something from it and gain Consciousness but in this world, we may refuse to learn the lesson and gain the experiences, we planned for ourselves, and may wish to get liberated again. Then, after death, we may regret our decision and would want to come back again to learn what was left and then we get lazy and leave it unfinished, to regret it later again.\n\nThe only catch is we do not remember about the world beyond Death in this world and only realize what we have done, when we are a Soul. This is the reason that it is said that people who can detach themselves from the body and understand that it's a tool, can retain their Consciousness. We get Enlightened when we retain Consciousness in both the worlds.

I don't agree with kids being housed in adult prisons; however I am concerned with young violent criminals being housed with kids. If you have a kid which killed for any reason how can you justify putting him in a cell or housing unit with a kid in for tagging. The system has to protect the wrong doers even from themselves.

No But I do think that overcrowding in prisons is related to the pervasive attitudes of "do whatever you want" and "as long as it's what you want to do".\n\nOf course those things are taught by all kinds of religions like Christianity...  oh no, wait a minute, that's not right...  those attitudes are taught by the religions of atheists and agnostics....  hmmm.....

I agree, prison is not always the answer, for some it just makes them worse!

some people are in so much pain, either physical or emotional, that they think that anything would be different...\n\nsometimes people are not so much thinking about ending suffering, rather escaping from themselves.\n\ni've seen plenty of death in my time and as far as i'm concerned they're not suffering.  this is especially noticable if the person was in a lot of pain beforehand.

Hell is a state where you can find yourself in at this moment or after death.  I see hell as a difficult situation or state that you are in at the moment you wish for not to be born at all like for instance:\nYou are staying next to a bunch of people in a block of flats and you work 24/7 and they have parties every evening when you want to sleep and they make load music so you can not sleep and you ask them very politely to stop because you got to be at work in a view hours and you need the rest peasefully and they do not whant to listen to you and just keep on with their music and it goes on like this for months at no end, then you are in a hellish situation or state.\nWhen you have passed on like in died, then hell will still be in a state that you had lived in, for eg. if you lived your live drinking and smoking and did some waird stuff like stealing and swearing and you die, then your soul keeps on wanting to do those things but the only thing that it will not be able to do is touching. Yes, you do not have the ability to touch things, ghosts moove things with their mind, not their hands, and this is a fact, for they do not and can not touch, they even communicate with you when you are sleeping, not when your awake for spirits can only comunicate with your spirit and therefor you will be in hell because you would like to pick up the bottle to drink but wont be able to, you would like to smoke, but wont be able to, you would like to do all things with your hands but you wont be able to use it, for spirits can not touch fisical materialistic earthly things, if a person could have done that then a lot of things would be somewhere in the after live with you and its not possible.  Then you also call it hell, for its a hell of a state for you to not be able to do the things as if and when you were alive.\n\nHeaven on the other hand is when you were doing all the nice things in live, when you were still living and you learnt that smoking and drinking and swearing and beeing nasty to others is wrong and you really live your life to the fullest of beeing a christian, then your soul would be in a heavenly state still finding itself going to church, singing in the choir, helping sick people, and all those things that is good.  I believe that when you pass on, your spirit goes to the level and state of which you had lived your life when you were alive.  If your live was hell on earth and you never tried to work it out to understand that your spirit is in need of good things like the Bible and such things, then your soul also would be going on living that same state until such time a good angel comes and lead you to do the correct stuff and that is when you choose to be reborn again to come and work on all the wrong to better it.  If you did all good in live and lived a happy and full live doing all the right stuff, your soul would be finding itself in that very heavenly form and state as when you had been alive and living it in all goodness.  But also, that soul gets a chance to be reborn again, to come back in a next life and teach others how to be good, they call it recornation.  \n\nSo there is no hell like the one everybody picture with flames and stuff and there is no heaven like everybody picture it, it is both a state your soul would be finding itself in, as it lived when it was alive.\n\nI do hope I could help you a little bit concerning the question, If I made any spelling mistakes, excuse me for it, for I am not english I am afrikaans speaking.\nAs long as you understand what I am trying to say.\nThanks for reading this and may everybody be wanting to live their life as if in a heavenly state for your soul to continue to live it in the same goodness and not be in a hellish situation to be saying your in hell, for it's hell to do things without no hands, ask people not having it all, its hell for them to do things without hands, not to say they will be in hell after death, no, they wount be, because they could not do hell

To give a rationally justified answer to this question, we first need to address the issue of souls.\n\nWhat exactly do you think a soul is?  What properties does it have?  What part of 'you' resides in the soul? \n\nIf it's postulated that consciousness, or awareness, or sense of self resides in the soul, it's difficult to see how this can be reconciled with the complete oblivion which accompanies general anaesthesia.  How could a straightforward chemical,  injected into the bloodstream, anaesthetise a soul so that it effectively ceases to exist during this time?  If consciousness, in the form of a soul, were some kind of supernatural faculty, it would seem implausible that it could be completely disabled by a chemical. \n\nHow about some of the other things which we regard as essential parts of what makes a person what they are?  How about love, compassion, reason, empathy, memory, conscious thought, character, 'spirituality' and so on? Well, there is really no plausible doubt that all these things are properties of the physical brain - We can alter all of these properties very simply with alcohol or other drugs, and observe how they change in people who have suffered significant brain damage.  Previously placid people become uncontrollably violent, intelligent people become imbeciles, and so on.  Stimulate the brain artificially, and the subject reports corresponding mental activity, e.g. 'religious experiences'.  We can see from brain research that all these things - thought, emotion, sensation, character traits and so on - are correlated with activity in the brain, and some things can be identified with specific areas of the brain. \n\nSo, if all these faculties and characteristics of what we regard as the 'person' reside in the physical brain, as seems to be undeniably the case, and they all cease when the person dies, then what is left to be attributed to a 'soul'?  As far as I can ascertain:  Nothing. If there is no part of us that can continue after death, then there is no 'afterlife'... and if there is no afterlife, then most of religion is null and void.

More and more people have an emptiness within them and instead of finding a healthy way to fill it, like yoga or exercise, they fill it with drugs and alcohol. More people need to look within themselves and find out why they are hurting and fill their souls with something good for them...\nI speak from experience and still growing..

I heard a quote once on this subject.  "A man that does not cry, has no soul".   I knew a vicious murderer that I met in jail, that admitted that he cries sometimes.  It has nothing to do with being weak or not.

Until we realise that our 'body' is not who we are, but it is actually the 'soul' that is the real us, we will keep concentrating on improving our appearance as a means to improve ourselves rather than concentrating on improving and nourishing our soul. \n\nPerhaps when we realise that the character of a person is more important than the external appearance, we might be better able to accept the shortcomings in our appearance.

Yes, my father is a prison guard and they not only have a weight room, but they also have a gym. It's rather interesting, although prisoners are behind bars, they have free gym memberships while we have to pay!
