AnswerSome of the ancient Greek philosophers believed that every living thing has a soul. Some said that everything capable of moving itself had a soul, which would now include modern machines. Whether souls exist, and whether only humans, only higher animals, or even everything in nature, including plants, have souls is a matter of what you choose to believe.

AnswerChristians believe that only humans can have an eternal soul.

Do plants have a soul?

no of course not they have cells and other chemicals but no souls cos they dont really talk or have blood and bones.AnswerGenetically, plants are not too different from animals; so I would say yes it is possible. AnswerYes plants do have souls. Soul is nothing but consciousness. The plants and trees are conscious. If you place a flower pot near a window, it "understands" that it has to move in the direction of the window to get more sunlight. The basic difference between a living entity and a nonliving entity is the presence of a soul. All living beings have souls whereas nonliving things do not have. Plants are living beings. The plants prepare their own food to maintain the living state. If not given enough sunlight or water or other nutrients they "die". So, yes, plants have souls. :-)


Do you agree with Aristotle that even plants and animals have souls?

Yes, Aristotle's view that plants and animals possess souls can be understood as a way to recognize their life and vitality. He defined the soul as the essence that gives life to an organism, encompassing both the nutritive functions of plants and the perceptive abilities of animals. This perspective highlights the interconnectedness of all living beings and emphasizes the importance of recognizing their intrinsic value. Thus, acknowledging that plants and animals have souls can foster a greater respect for nature and its inhabitants.

What is the soul the unites all souls?

Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church certainly believes that all members of the Church are welded together by the Holy Spirit, who, technically speaking is the "soul" of the Church, as it is He who animates her in the same manner that our individual souls animate our bodies. Unlike the souls of plants and animals, the human soul is an immortal spirit and does not die when the body dies. However only the souls of the perfect are united with God at the end of time. Revelation teaches that most souls choose everlasting hell. It must be understood that this welding of the souls of the just with God is not the same kind of unity that, for instance, Buddhists or Hindus believe in.
