 be extremely awkward if, instead of using the concept of „immortality”, that key feature of the human soul is described with a long explanation such as „a potential ability to exist forever, to not be the subject to wear, and to act (live) for eternity (if properly appointed to life)” – i.e. the explanations used by the today’s science of Software Engineering to describe one of the key features of today’s computer programs (as explained in more details, amongst others, in item #C3 from the web page named „soul_proof.htm”).
1. Subordination caused by the appointment to the life by God. Human souls do not lead a life just by themselves. To live, they firstly must be „breathed” into the body belonging to them. If they are not in a body, then (according to the Bible) these souls are experiencing a kind of „sleep” mode (i.e. they do exist, but they do NOT have awareness of „living”). Hence the immortality of the human soul is a „subordinate” in relation to the divine one. After all, only God can deliver souls deprived of bodies from that state of „sleep” – for example, through their „breathing” into the new (potentially indestructible) body. (Note, however, that if God is so willing, then He is able to implement also one of several other than „breathing” ways of extracting the soul from the „sleep” mode – e.g. see one of these ways described in items #C4 and #I3 from the web page named „soul_proof.htm”.) Let us clarify here this „subordination” of immortality of the human souls on an example. In item #C3 near beginning of the web page named „soul_proof.htm”, I explained the finding of the so-called „Software Engineering” that programs from today’s computers also are characterized by a kind of potential „indestructibility” similar to that one which characterizes human souls – i.e. these programs also have the ability to exist forever, to not be subject to wear, and to work forever (if are used correctly and if they are operational in a working computer). So, if these programs also gained self-awareness and the ability to live, then it could be also claimed about them that they are „immortal”. Only that their immortality would be „subordinate” to the human one, as it would be initiated for living by people.
2. Dependency on finding themselves in the human body, which (the body) has somehow acquired a „potential indestructibility”. Let us explain this dependency with the help of an example of potentially „indestructible” computer programs described in the above sub-item „1” – for which programs the present „Software Engineering” also claims, that they have the ability to exist forever, to not to be subject to wear, and to work for eternity. Well, in spite that these programs are „potentially indestructible” (like human souls), in order to actually work (live) for the eternity, they firstly need to end up in „potentially indestructible” computers – which also are capable of operating for eternity. Without finding themselves in such computers, means when they maintain their „indestructibility” but they are still just stored, for example, on a CD or on a floppy disk, these programs „sleep” – just as the Bible states that are „asleep” also our souls when they find themselves outside of physical bodies (e.g. because these bodies have died). So, as these „potentially indestructible” computer programs must be uploaded into similarly „potentially indestructible” computers, to be able to work forever, also the „derived immortal” human souls must be breathed into the „potentially indestructible” human bodies in order to experience the immortal lives. In other words, under typical circumstances, the human soul which is NOT „breathed” into some „immortal body” cannot experience the immortal life, but only can „sleep” for a potentially infinitely long period of time – just as the Bible explains this to us. Of course, this „immortal body” does not necessarily have to be made „immortal” by God, but it can achieve e.g. the „imprisoned immortality” which people open to themselves in the future by building my time vehicles.
3. Indirectness of work due to the starting and keeping alive by the higher-level programs of God. The human soul itself is unable to live. Its starting to life and later keeping alive is only possible due to a proper work of several superior in relation to it programs of God – for example, the program called „omniplan” whose operation is described in item #C4 from the separate web page named „immortality.htm”. To also illustrate here on an example this attribute of an indirect work of the human soul, let us use the example of a „program of the web page named soul_proof.htm”. Namely, if the program of the web page named „soul_proof.htm” have the self-awareness and the ability to live, then it would also have a kind of „immortality”. However, its immortality would be of an „indirect nature”. After all, in order to appear on the computer screen and to „live”, the program of the web page named „soul_proof.htm” would need to be launched by the superior in relation to it program that interprets the code of it, for example, by a program called „Internet Explorer”. Thus, its start-up and life would be similar to the starting and life of programs of the human soul by the divine „omniplan”. In addition, the program of „Internet Explorer” also is unable to work and „live” just by itself, but must be brought to life by an even more superior towards it program of the Operating System (for example, by „Windows”) – similarly as this program of „omniplan” is run and maintained by the work of God’s own programs. In other words, the human soul is so formulated that alone it is unable to live, and thus for the living it needs several increasingly imperative towards it programs created by God. Therefore, its start to life and keeping alive has an „indirect” character and is controlled by God. Its immortality is also „indirect” and completely dependent on God.
4. Enhanced conditionality. Regardless of (and in addition to) the conditions imposed on the „conditional immortality” of God, the subordinate immortality of the human soul has imposed on itself a whole range of additional conditions. For example, some of these additional conditions include: (4a) the appointment of the human soul to life by „breathing” it to the intended body; (4b) making its life dependent on the operation of several superior in relation to it programs – one of which programs is described under the name „omniplan” in item #L4 from the web page named „immortality.htm”, while the other is described under the name „program of life and fate” in item #A2 from the same web page „immortality.htm”; (4c) the resisting of attempts of other people to kill or to destroy it, (4d) deserving the award from God to receive the immortal body, etc., etc.
(a) Make sure that each of the disputing parties is aware that in biblical times people did not know what is that thing which today we call „program”, or „software”, and how this „software” differs from „hardware” that implements a given program. Therefore, in biblical times it was impossible to define for people that the human soul is a kind of self-aware and life-giving natural program („software”) which resides in the counter-matter and is run (appointed to life) by God through „breathing” it into the body that performs the function of „hardware” which implements this program. On the other hand, without the possibility of defining for people as to what exactly is the human soul, in biblical times it was also impossible to clarify precisely what kind of „immortality” this soul has. More preferably, and more inspiring towards the search for truth, was to leave all this knowledge for the scientific explaining by the future generations of human scientists on Earth – which explanation herewith provides the new „totaliztic science”.
(c) Use in the exchange of views, the expressions that refer to specific definitions of the different types of immortality, instead of using for all of them the same single word „immortality” – under which each of the parties understands a completely different type of it (that is, the word „immortality” in the statements is to be complemented with an additional term that defines the type of it, for example, with the term „divine”, „conditional”, „derived”, „human soul”, „imprisoned”, etc.).
At this point I should add that if people started to use similar standards of discussion in all other exchanges of views and disputes, then the emergence of differences in opinions would diminish over time to almost zero, and thus the world would begin to live without strife, wars, and perhaps even without politicians and lawyers – who, after all, are masters in spreading confusion through manipulating on different meanings of the same words.
I do not need to explain here how important meaning has for each of us the knowledge of truth about the kind of immortality which characterizes our soul. After all, this truth is a kind of access into ourselves, means learning about ourselves what is the most difficult to learn.
