I was an IVF baby.
I have a soul.
My parents loved me.
They are still married.That’s exactly what an IVF soulless NPC would say!
damn you mean people who go to the considerable trouble and expense of IVF to have kids together actually want a kid, together??
when did we collectively, as a society, agree that souls actually exist?? didn’t philosophers and scientists spend like a cumulative 1000 years arguing over this & doing dumbass experiments like weighing people before and after they died, only to come to the conclusion that - if souls do exist - they are ephemeral and cannot be observed??!?! save me Kant save me
Qualia/consciousness is still weird and very hard to pin down in a laboratory environment while at the same time being the one immediate thing we as living beings are personally aware of, whatever it means.
Souls are woo and bad people throughout history have assigned or disavowed them depending on who they want to uplift, or kill.
31% of the world’s population are Christian, 25% are Muslim, 15% are Hindu, that right there is 71% of the world’s population that believe not only in souls, but in immortal souls that continue after death. Plus all the other religions that have souls, or people who aren’t particularly religious or spiritual but believe in souls. We as a society have collectively always accepted the existence of souls, and soulless atheist heathens (no value judgment) have always been a minority.
Seeing other people as “NPCs” is just fascist-style dehumanization with a bideo bame reskin.
There will be data on what? The existence of a soul?
Just charge up your soul battery bro they have free chargers everywhere.
Warframe’s Oro theory is now in play.
The Oro is an orb released upon death of a Tenno in Conclave’s Annihilation and Team Annihilation mode. As Teshin describes it, it prevents any living being who possesses it from dying.
Ah yes. Of course.

person who says npc unironically:
Well the Catholic Church has been against IVF for decades so yeah wouldn’t surprise me if it gets traction in the anti-choice circles.
Meaney explained that in IVF “there’s an objectification of the child because essentially they’re producing children almost on an industrial scale.”
Unlike how Catholic families treat women
Donum Vitae compares IVF to abortion, saying that “through these procedures, with apparently contrary purposes, life and death are subjected to the decision of man, who thus sets himself up as the giver of life and death by decree.”
Yes, as opposed to sex which just happens spontaneously.
Modern Catholic ideology gets really hung up on the idea that God’s dice roll needs to be an integral part of the reproductive process and anything that interferes with that (contraceptives, abortion, IVF) is an abomination. They’re literally doing the “I consent! I consent! … I didn’t” meme.
So, one must be pushed thru a vagina to qualify for a soul now?
None of woman born shall harm Macbeth!
You beat me to that
I definitely need to start using “I can kill Macbeth” as a fun fact when introducing myself
not only that but the sperm has to be blasted by a wet peen straight onto the cervix. that’s how souls are created.
Can confirm. I was a caesarean
Of course, didn’t you read Macbeth?!
I was born via c-section. I still have no soul. The IVF kids are alright.
The good news is if some villain is said by prophecy to be unkillable unless specific birthing conditions, you may be up for the task.
I mean, I got accused of being soulless plenty of times, and I was conceived the correct Catholic way
Fascists will legalize murder under the “I just don’t like you” defense.
let that sink in
regrettably, the sink in question:
He looks so healthy and happy in this picture, it’s crazy how fast he has fallen apart (I hated him then too, but like … Look at him)
The K-Hole went deep.
What posting too hard does to a man
That’s a sink meant for an ADA compliant install. Elong loves his disabled brothers and sisters. Wtf I’m a
head now.
the only positive to take from this is you just know Elon saw this post lmao
when you create a species with souls but 100 billion of the mfs have already died and you’re running out of souls so you have to start cutting corners
Skill issue, just use reincarnation. When I was young, I saw an earth day promo about recycling and then had the theory that reincarnation was created because souls were a non-renewable resource.
Let that sink in
phrase universally used by fucking morons
It really is lol
Why are conservatives such demons wearing human skin
How do you go along your life hating so much so fervently
