I am a child of God, who loves me whether you call me an entity (a being), a bunch of cells, or a mishmass of various parts and particles.

Wherever did you come up with this question?🤷
 
You are both. You are a collection of particles just like everything in this universe, but an entity because you posess intellingence, emotion, and free will. Does that help?
 
Quantum science has proven to us that there is more going on in our brains and bodies than just a collection of particles. Your question is so 1920s.
 
The word “entity” is not used in the context of a human being; more like in the context of a “SUPERNATURAL entity.”
So no, I don’t consider myself an “entity.”
I am both a “collection of particles,” like everything else in the Universe, yet also MORE than that. So mostly, no, I am not really just a “collection of particles.”👍🙂

An entity or a collection of particles?/QUOTE

I am a human being, a man, with a biological body composed of organs, tissues, cells, genes, DNA, and atoms; having an electro-biochemical brain and a psychological mind (including thoughts, creative energy, fantasies, emotions, and drives); being connected to my physical and social environment and world and my sociocultural ancestors, while also linked to other human and non-human organisms; and possessing an organic spirit and a G-d-given soul.

I’m an entity, while some are collections of particles. A few are collections of particles of the type that can’t be mentioned on the forums. 🙂
 
You do not have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body.

So, I suppose I would be both. A supernatural entity enclosed within a material collection of particles.

You are an entity wrapped in a brilliantly engineered collection of particles designed to teach you “consciousness.”

This is not the first collection of particles in which you’ve been wrapped. You and I are slow learners.

Were you to replace “supernatural” with “perfectly natural outcome of an extraordinary one-shot event,” you’d be right-on.

Why the “and” in that description?

If you are both material body and “soul,” what part of “you” persists after the bugs finish off your body?

I’ve studied quantum physics with a textbook labeled Quantum Mechanics. “Quantum science” sounds to me like a pretentious term that someone who has learned his physics from documentary TV, a science camp-follower, would make up. Except that I’ve never heard the term “quantum science” on the dumbest of the documentary channels. Did you get it from TV-Land or make it up all by yourself?

Your reply to an honest question is so… arrogantly 21st century TV trendy, and does not address the spirit of the OP.

IMO the opening poster, “Tonyrey,” actually reads books. They can be found in places called :“libraries.”
