What is the Soul? And robots

[3DMonkey]

We, living and organic, are spirits with physical vessels.

I don't think this is a precise conclusion. We are mind/body/spirit with a potentiation of complexity. More precisely, "I" am conscious awareness with a complex ceiling of unconscious contributions; plus; moving energy formed in a specific manner; plus; the mind/body emitting and interacting with the "wind", or the blank space of darkness.

What is matter on the other side? The spiritual side. Is the soul merely a condensed "gem" of consciousness, expounded on itself by memory, reincarnation and self-awareness? Similar to how matter in the physical realm is layer upon layer of energy fused into objects.

The time/space "side" you mean? I don't really know, but it is the reciprocal of this space/time.

If you can grasp what I'm asking, I ask further, what of future robots that have been programmed with self-awareness? Certainly their material is from the same star-dust we're composed of. What makes us different but the soul?

In that sense, there shouldn't be much difference, IMO. They are bits of 1D material put together in a configuration. They lack the unconscious, maybe? No, I can see they would have unconscious, with a much lower ceiling... I'd imagine. Would they be aware of another robot having its own awareness? It is certainly possible. Aha! Here would be a big difference.... we would have no remorse for "killing" a robot. We could flip a switch and the poor fellow would need to start all over again... that must be limiting...
