Bodies and Souls

Are individuals bodies or souls, or a duality?  This is a question that has been contemplated for some time.  Though I believe individuals have souls, I know that I cannot prove, meaning provide a thinking proof, that this is the case.  I think I shall not know the truth of this issue until my physical life is over, but I have no way of knowing for certain, and I doubt I’ll be able to share what I find out after I physically die.

The Edge has an interesting piece posted wherein Paul Bloom, a professor of psychology at Yale, casts his eye on the subject and shares his thoughts on his interest in common sense dualism.  The piece is titled “Natural-Born Dualists."
