Humans to download their SOULS onto microchips so they can ‘live FOREVER’
Daily star ^ | 19th January 2019 | Matt Drake

PEOPLE will be able to download their “souls” onto microchips, implant it into another body and live forever, a technology expert has claimed.

Richard Skellett, a founder of Digital Anthropologist and an expert for Future of Work, has warned of a future in which British workers have chips inserted underneath their skin.

The process has already been trialled with company BioTeq fitting 150 implants in the UK.

And Sweden-based firm Biohax told the Sunday Telegraph that it is in discussions with several British companies about microchipping.

But as humans and machines become more in-sync, it could open up all sorts of possibilities – including being able to live forever.

Secular humanists believe that this is the next step in human evolution. Except the new bodies will be human-robot hybrids or just plain robots.

Sounds great, until you find yourself turned into the soul of someone’s “smart refrigerator”, and nobody talks to you ever again.

Why do you believe we do not have souls?

It's not worth arguing over. The spiritually dead are already dead. I have become convinced that not all of those we see around us even have souls, but are rather like NPCs. Discernment is needed because there are also others that are demonically infested, and that's an entirely different breed.

If you have acknowledged your own soul then you have found a pearl of great value indeed.

The value is in acknowledging the Creator and Lord of your soul

I haven’t watched that one, but Altered Carbon used the same premise.

Gives a new meaning to, “He’s a chip off the old block”.

Just wondering if any of these super duper smart guys has ever held the hand of a another human as he dies?

Humans are not plug and play.

It will never reach the hands of the tech giants. This guy is going to sell your soulular data to the highest bidder as soon as he gets you on a zip drive.

Never fall for those “We will freeze you for free!” commercials.

The “notion” must assume there are bodies not already possessed by a soul?

We are not bodies that have souls, we are souls who temporarily have these bodies.

You perfectly understand what I was describing. We are in it, can not escape it and must take care of it while we are here. It’s not so bad all in all. Surely could be a lot worse.

I swear, The cats body was in there when I closed the coffin. It was, really!

ok. then.

Take the prereqs, for

Lec 1 | MIT 18.02 Multivariable Calculus

Then take,

MIT Quantum Physics I & II - 8.04/8.05

Then we'll discuss further course work and after that, then and only then, we'll discuss the number of angels(souls) that can fit on the head of a pin!

and, put down that deadcat while I'm talking to you!

Salesman:

He's not dead! ( in a British accent ). He's just sleeping!

Peruse at your leisure.

A little light after dinner reading.

Cant help but pity people who buy this garbage...and to think that this kind of thing has been going on pretty much forever. Reminds of the preacher who enticed his ‘sheep’ to give away all of their belongings because he ‘calculated’ Christs 2nd coming in the 17th century.

There’s already a way to live forever: accept Jesus Christ as your Savior.

As for why I wouldn’t want to have a microchip implanted under my skin, I’ll giver you 666 reasons.

The chip would have to be as big as a house if each memory was a molecule. Lol. Nonsense.

Are they spiritually dead through their lifestyle or can one actually sell ones soul? Or, as I suspect, can one’s soul slip away through constant sin or negligence? This would definitely explain Democrats.
