A very interesting YouTube video coming up. If we have free will, then it's possible that for us to have a soul. Most physicists believe the whole world is based on cause and effect, including our minds, and so they argue that we don't have free will. They say we are biological machines that work on chemical messengers and signals, and this rules out the soul. Some scientists believe our minds have software part independent of the brain, and so we can have free will. I think there is something wrong with these theories, and that we are more than the sum of our parts. Nicolas Gisin is a Swiss physicist and professor at the University of Geneva. He is both a theorist and an experiment physicist
