Imagine a world where cold and hot were opposite. Fire was cold, snow was hot, just thinking, but that would be crazy!

if organ donors share their memories with the transplant patients, maybe we do have souls. Maybe our soul is an entirely seperate body system. Like we have a nervous system, circulatory an such y not a "soul"lar system.And the soul is like a plasma that can be sperated if a part of the body is removed, but that would mean that there has to be a main part of the soul, otherwise the donor would also experience what the patient experiences. That would also tie into the soular system theory, because most body systems have a main component which keeps them running, the circulatory has the heart, the nervous system has the brain. so the soular system could have a soul brain or something. Farfetched? I kno im just spillin my brains out.
