Between heaven and earth

The soul of man? A soulful man? Soul-bearers? It is spoken of the mentally ill person. Psychology and psychiatry, however, have removed the soul from their jargon and encyclopaedias, they only talk about the psyche. And a psyche is not only attributed to humans, today also to animals. And the church and theology? They still use the professional title of pastor today? What is she worried about? The answers among pastoral workers are quite different. Has the soul, once believed to be a special divine place in the human being, its most intimate space, where it is in direct contact with its God, served its time and the church has lost its soul? Since the Enlightenment, the humanities, parallel to the increasingly strong natural sciences, have asked and researched for a material soul, only to gradually leave it to theology for rethinking as an unmeasurable and therefore uninteresting phenomenon. Is the soul therefore merely a fiction? We shall see! This book has been translated with Artificial Intelligence.
