Article scope: Soul sleep and mortality of the soul

[edit]

This article seems to discuss what seems to me to be two distinct issues:

  1. the belief that the human soul is not naturally immortal
  2. the belief that the soul is uncomprehending immediately after death.

While I understand that these views are related. I think they should be split into different articles. What do others think? Daask (talk) 16:37, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Can someone who’s knowledgeable about Wikipedia add the links “Conditional Immortality” and “Soul in the Bible” to this article?? It’s time that this article gets a little more improved!! SassyForAReason (talk) 15:44, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Easy enough, added Soul in the Bible to the see also section, created a wikilink to Conditional Immortality in the body of the article. If anyone has an issue with that they can feel free to revert me. Greyjoy talk 15:49, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I’ve added more information for Christian Mortalism

[edit]

I’ve added more arguments for Christian Mortalism and added info to the introduction paragraph. I copied and pasted them from three different Wikipedia articles, “Conditional Immortality,” “Last Judgment,” and “Christian Anthology.” I’ve also used the term “soul sleep” throughout the article since I think that Jehovah Witnesses and Seventh-Day Adventists use it. Any improvement would help. Thanks. 😊❤️🙏2601:407:C400:733:DDFF:1FA5:686C:B37A (talk) 23:57, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Soul sleep not accurate

[edit]

I object to the term "soul sleep" to refer to the beliefs described here. That does not accurately reflect these beliefs. Most who do not accept the inherent immortality of the human soul do not believe the soul "sleeps"! They believe the soul or person ceases to exist at death! 66.38.21.220 (talk) 03:09, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict with Nicene Creed

[edit]

Please add a section discussing the potential conflict with the Nicene Creed. Of Jesus, it states, "He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead..." implies that the dead have not yet been judged, so how can they be either in heaven or in hell? Or did we miss the Second Coming? The Fifth Lateran Council as cited in the article seems to be ignoring this inconvenience. Either the Nicene Creed states the faith or it does not, it can't be both. 98.151.249.222 (talk) 07:58, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
