Soul

[John Dibble]

Well, as an agnostic I can't say for sure whether we have something like a soul or not. I'd like to think so, but when pondering that question I can't help but wonder if it has something to do with what makes life different from the other chemical reactions. If you seriously consider it, you find that animals, plants, humans, and even single celled organisms are simply sacs of proteins and other chemicals reacting with eachother. Now, I'm not saying that we're the same as amoebas. They might have 'soul version 1.0', or maybe 'soul beta version', and we're 'soul version 5.3: now with the ability to love and hate other chemicals'. Or maybe not - maybe we're just the same as them. Who the f**k knows. Not me, that's for sure. But I digress, the essential difference between us and that baking soda and vinegar volcano you stared in awe at in first grade us living chemical reactions attempt to sustain ourselves rather than taking our course and having the leftover new chemicals react with whatever happens by. What purpose does that serve to chemicals? Why would chemicals want to react with eachother? Does the volcano desperately want us to add more vinegar and baking soda, but merely lacks the means to tell us so? Maybe if we could know this, we might have better insight into the existence and nature of souls. Or maybe we'd just go insane. Wait, am I turning into angus?

I'd make Hell a lot like the real word, but darker.  It would always be overcast, slightly cold, dusty; nothing would glitter.  People, including the Devil, wouldn't smile.  No joy, just sarcasm.  A person might achieve his full dreams, but not be able to really enjoy it. People/demons would be callus.

So any of those goth teens who go to hell would like it there?
