When soul meets body

[Nuzzolese]

First off, I don't believe in souls that exist apart from a person's physical body.
That said, let's pretend that they are real.

If your soul - which, in this hypothetical, includes your personality and memories and feelings and likes and dislikes - were to be placed inside a different person's body (and maybe theirs into yours like Freak Friday) do you think that your personality would start to change once you started to become affected by the chemical reactions inside that other person's body?


I think it would, because what we taste and see, how we smell and react to stimulants like alcohol and stuff, are all physical things happening in our body. Hormone levels, adrenaline, dopamine, it's all physical. And it does affect our emotions sometimes against our rational will.

forget what its called but for the few people in the world who have had face transplants, their personality has kinda rejected their new look. Like in organ transplants a body might reject an organ.

So in a way, its already happened and fucked them up. So doing a whole body shift would be truly mind fucking

certain things might change but i think a lot would stay the same. like maybe your ratio of good moods and bad moods would change depending on the new brain chemistry, but your reaction to various moods would be the same as it had been.

as far as alcohol tolerance, food tastes and such, those might change but i dont think it would be a huge deal. my tastes in food and my alcohol tolerance have changed a lot in the past couple of years, and i think its pretty normal to experience changes like that, so if you got a new body i think those kinds of things wouldnt be that hard to adjust to, nor would it change what you are like as a person.

if i got a super hot new body though i probably slut it up

But isn't our reaction still part of the chemical sparks firing in our brains?

You should slut it up now. You may not get any hotter.

I think what makes me brilliant in this body, would make any body I was in brilliant. Make the new body good looking though!

i think if you give two people two similar chemical sparks, they will react differently to them. thats what makes different personalities.

and dont nobody want to see this body all slutted up.

I'm constantly wishing that I could go back to physically being a 7 year-old but with my present mind, and do it all over again but this time people would be amazed at my precocity.

But I wonder if I'd get frustrated over a sudden weak tolerance for sugar and a powerful crabbiness in the absence of naps.

[Adam]

fuck, if I knew what I know now even just 5 years ago I'd of taken my life round different corners. But how can I learn without my own experience? Man, going back over 20 years I can't even contemplate.

Wait... you grew out of that stage? :(
