She raised the valid point that according to Christian religion animals, places, and things do not have souls. That said, I think that they do have souls. I think that's what makes art, art. After-all, who are we ... http://blogs.elsweb.org/samj/2007/04/18/soul-mates-perfection-and-completion/ I thought the class' discussion on Friday was really interesting and there are a couple of issues to address. 1) Can soulmates not require a romantic relationship? Right off the bat I think they should, but I don't want to rule it out because there are a lot of people out there who ... http://blogs.elsweb.org/samj/2007/04/16/true-love-soul-mates-tragedy/ How many people out there carry a music dispensing device like a Walkman or ipod?
