Can all the members of a species....

This is just for a little research I am doing, after the poll closes I'll tell anyone whose interested a bit more about it.

The polling question:

Can the members of a species, an ecosystem, or another grouping of multiple organisms have a unified spiritual soul?
 
Be more specific, please.

So, you're asking if every ant in the world is connected by one universal soul, every organism in a prarie connected by the same, as with every single being in the world?
 
WTF is a soul? I say "NO it makes no sense..." because we have yet to identify and verify the existence of a soul, much less define who has one.


On second thought I probably should have said "I'm not sure". Can I take my vote back?

QFT

Like are we talking about a hive mind sort of thing? Many creatures with one purpose? or one soul controlling the creatures?

😕 lets start with the basics. is there such a thing as a soul?

you should have started on those questions years ago, just vote how you think
 
Voted option 1, because there is no such thing as a soul.

Now, if there were a soul, that might be different.
 
I voted no because, yes, I believe we have souls, but I don't think its possibly that we coud all share some kind of mother soul. Unless we were zombies 😉

Being that there are single celled organisms (ameoba), and multicellular organisms with "souls" (by soul I assume you mean consciousness) (human), I'd say the answer is yes.
