huang, my philosophical muse

After reading Huang's post about the immortality of the soul and his stand on the non-existence of heaven and hell together with today's news about the rising problem of global pollution, I came up with a theory to link the two issues together.

Quoting from Jesse in Before Sunrise, you look at 50,000 years ago - there's not even a million people on the planet. 10,000 years ago there's like two million people on the planet. Now there's six billion people on the planet, right? So now if we all have our own, like, individual, unique soul then where do they all come from? Are modern souls only a fraction of the original souls? Because if they are, that represents a 6,000 to 1 split of each soul in the last 50,000 years.

So would it be like 1 whole soul splitting into 6,000 inferior modern soul-bits? Then at best we're like these tiny fractions of people having inferior soul-bits which explains why the earth is in such a bad state now with all the wars, ethnic-clashes and pollution - morally-wise we are all kinda heading down the drain.
