We still live for eternity. Where in eternity is another question.

Yes, the belief in an immortal soul is a false religious belief. Genesis 2:7 - When God created man, man became a soul, it doesn't say he was given one.

Wondergirl agrees: Happy birthday to you too, on the 7th!! I'd bake you a batch of chocolate cupcakes with fudgy chocolate icing if I could.

Here's an example of sorcerers in the bible. Not exactly witch or warlock material, but I'm guessing it might be similar to what you're looking for.

Exodus 7:10 So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the LORD commanded. Aaron threw his staff down in front of Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a snake. 11 Pharaoh then summoned wise men and sorcerers, and the Egyptian magicians also did the same things by their secret arts: 12 Each one threw down his staff and it became a snake. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their staffs. 13 Yet Pharaoh's heart became hard and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.

For a belief to be true or false, there must be fact to substantiate either claim. There simply is no human being who is qualified to declare other peoples' religious beliefs as true or false.

It's surprising that supposedly intelligent people can make such asinine statements.

Sorry, Charlie. You're telling that to the wrong person. I lucked out being born on Luther's birthday, so the story of his nailing of the 95 theses and the meaning of Halloween was a story entwined with the story of my birth, told by my minister father. (My birthday's next week, so don't forget to send me a card!)

Of course! Man became a living soul because man IS a living soul. It isn't a thing, a possession, and doesn't exist in a place in the body. It isn't something you can lay on the table and cut apart.

Man IS a living soul means man = soul.

So you're saying you agree with me? If someone believes that there's a soul within them, something that departs their body and floats off somewhere, that belief is contrary to what the Bible has to say.

Yes, dear. Man IS a soul.

Silentrascal = soul. WG = soul. You and I are distinct and separate persons; you and I are distinct and separate souls.

A soul is not a thing, not a three-dimensional object like a liver or a kidney but is an immaterial entity. It is who you are.

Some of these answers are getting way out of hand. I have been searching my Bible for some text to support my question and so far I found "Acts 8: 9-24". Can any one else locate some simular texts?

Deut 18:10-12
10 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch,
11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
12 For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee.
KJV

Ex 22:18
18 "You shall not permit a sorceress to live.
NKJV

Isa 57:3
3 "But come here,
You sons of the sorceress,
You offspring of the adulterer and the harlot!
NKJV

Acts 13:6-9
6 Now when they had gone through the island to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew whose name was Bar-Jesus, 7 who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. This man called for Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God. 8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so his name is translated) withstood them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.
NKJV

So if you find such a person you are compelled to kill her?

Well, NK--that IS the piece of scripture they based the torture and death of thousands of wise women on.
