Humans Can Have A Soul

3000 Characters Only, Unreasonably short. This argument will be focused on Quantum Indeterminism since it underlies his case. No explicit burden of proof is stated therefore I interpret the burden of proof is on the affirmative. The first premise of the argument is simply assumed and given no evidence for. In fact it assumes souls exist at all. For if souls don"t exist then existence of freewill cannot be explained by souls. The Problem with Quantum Indeterminism (the Copenhagen Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics): The first criticism is based on classical physics. The problem with Copenhagen interpretation is that it undermines several principles of classical physics. The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy states 5 principles Copenhagen interpretation explicitly contradicts. "The principle of space and time, i.e., physical objects exist separately in space and time in such a way that they are localizable and countable, and physical processes take place in space and time ;The principle of causality, i.e., every event has a cause; The principle of determination, i.e., every later state of a system is uniquely determined by any earlier state; The principle of continuity, i.e., all processes exhibiting a difference between the initial and the final state have to go through every intervening state; and finally The principle of the conservation of energy, i.e., the energy of a closed system can be transformed into various forms but is never gained, lost or destroyed." Unfortunately for the people who support this interpretation they must justify why we should think that the experimental results that are obtained by all Quantum Mechanics interpretations should be indeterministic in nature and therefore defy classical physics. The next objection is that which is based in epistemological terms and ontological state. Simply because science is unable to show a causal state of affairs doesn"t indicate the event in question is uncaused. We simply haven"t progressed enough in science to see all the variables. The biological equivalent to the Copenhagen Interpretation might be spontaneous generation. While individuals didn"t know what caused bacteria and other living things to appear, it seemed to be uncaused however as Louis Pasteur shows us, everything must be physically caused. This may be an oversimplification but it is still reasonably analogous. Next the essay will point out issues and objections raised by Albert Einstein. Einstein criticized the fact that Copenhagen interpretation relies on the assumption that a physical state of an individual system is completely specified by a wave function which determines only the possibility of experimental results or a collection of experiment results. Einstein thought that even on the quantum level there must be underlying principles that determine a current state of affairs. He thought that we should be able to go beyond probability to say that with certainty, "God doesn"t play dice" Another criticism might be from Bohm"s own writing, which he states that the primary problem with Copenhagen interpretation is that it "requires us to give up on the possibility of even conceiving precisely what might determine the behavior on a quantum level without providing adequate proof that renunciation is necessary." This seems obvious because the people who conclude renunciation is necessary beg the question by assuming the Copenhagen interpretation of virtual particles.
